3D Nanoscale Structures of Hydrated Polyamide Desalination Membranes Revealed by Cryogenic Transmission Electron Microscopy Tomography by Chenhao Yao (1569328)

“…Both SW and BW membranes swell and increase in total volume and thickness upon hydration, with BW membranes exhibiting more pronounced swelling (32% vs 7% in volume and 35% vs 11% in effective thickness), primarily due to the lower degree of cross-linking of BW membranes. Additionally, while the surface area decreases upon hydration for both SW and BW membranes, indicating a smoothing of surface nodules and cavities, surface roughness remains unchanged, suggesting that current roughness measurement methods such as atomic force microscopy do not capture intrinsic morphological features. …”

Optimisation of read depth, DNA quantity, and unique alternate observation threshold. by Melinda L. Tursky (20790436)

“…The mean number of variants detected per sample above the standard CHIP threshold of ≥ 0.02 VAF increased linearly with subject age (E). Greater than 99.9% of variants detected were below ≥ 0.02 VAF, potentially including those with prognostic or predictive clinical relevance (F). …”

The Effect of Chronic Stress on Apoptosis Regulation and Oncogenesis Evolution: A Theoretical Approach. by DIMITRIOS KIMOGLOU (20499350)

“…In particular, we seek to illustrate the epigenetic influence of stress on genes that control apoptosis, as well as the significance of the HPA axis as a therapeutic target for restoring cellular equilibrium. …”
