description: This project analyzes if artificial intelligence (AI) hiring systems demonstrate racial bias as measured by prestige bias against graduates of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs), measured in a number of different metrics, and how that bias can be mitigated. The metrics we used to measure prestige were: size, university rankings, public vs. private universities, and attendance of HBCUs vs. attendance of non-HBCUs. We examined how the hiring site Indeed utilizes AI to list candidate resumes by relevance and measured the relationship between candidates’ resume rankings and the universities they attended. While we found no significant difference between the overall average rankings of applicants from HBCUs and applicants from non-HBCUs, we did find significant differences between these applicants when we made comparisons based on variables such as major, experience level, and most recent company size. Future research on this topic includes training an AI model on the collected resumes to see if the same results are generated and adjusting the model to mitigate said biases. This research will shed light on the bias embedded in human hiring departments. With businesses considering AI as a tool for hiring, companies must understand that AI hiring systems can perpetuate the same biases found in human hiring on a larger scale.

Je vous remercie du beau brin de Ptelea. Je suis persuadé que vous me conserverez celles de ma liste, à mesure que vous les aurez en bon état. Le Psyllium venu des graines égyptiennes est le Plantago indica Linn. Syst. Nat. En général ces graines ne lèvent pas encore. J'ignore la cause. Je me rappelle d'avoir vu dans les plantes doubles que vous avez eues rebus, le monotropa plus beau que ceyx que j'aurais pu vous donner, ainsi je néglige de vous l'envoyer, mais j'ai remis à Monsieur Roustang un petit paquet de celles que j'ai eu actu, ayant oublié d'y joindre le Asarum hypocistis. Je le joins ici. Je vous prie de me réserver un autre brin du Verbascum foliis multifidis du jardin de Monsieur Baux. Le mien a péri par l'humidité. Vous m'avez promis quelques jolis pieds de Cistus tuberaria seuffolio plantaginis, des bulbes de Fritillaire de Liris xyphilium et d'un lys rouge. Est-ce le Martagon?

Si les plantes que vous avez semées cette année réussissent, mandez-le-moi, peut-être ne réussiront-elles pas chez moi et à la fin de la saison nous nous enverrons un double de tout pour ne rien perdre. Peut-être aussi n'avons-nous pas semé les mêmes?

[fol. 9 v] Monsieur Roustang a bien voulu se charger aussi des graines, je souhaiterais en avoir vingt fois plus. Vous pouvez prendre un peu de chaque paquet et m'en renvoyer les restes par la première voie. Cela ne presse pas. Je voudrais que ceux à qui vous en donnerez (soit étranger ou autre) promissent de vous envoyer deux brins de chacun, afin que nous ne perdissions pas fonds et fruits. Cela me paraît faisable et juste. Gardez-moi de ce Blittum rubrum qui est né à la place de l'Aristolochia [...]. Vos mousses m'ont fait plaisir. Je vois à vue de pays que toutes ces espèces sont dans nos petites Alpes de la France et pour la donc je vais les confronter avec mes échantillons. Le Lycopodium clavatum me ferait plaisir. Ce sera quand vous le pourrez. Je ne l'ai pas en fleur. Je finis malgré moi et suis avec toute l'amitiéet la reconnaissance possible, Monsieur, votre très humble serviteur.

Je laisse à Monsieur Roustang le soin de vous dire mille choses de ma part de vive voix. Je suis bien fâché de n'avoir pas eu plus de moments à passer avec lui et de n'avoir pas pu le contenter.

description: The characterization of intermittent, multiscale and transient dynamics using data-driven analysis remains an open challenge. We demonstrate an application of the Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) with sparse sampling for the diagnostic analysis of multiscale physics. The DMD method is an ideal spatiotemporal matrix decomposition that correlates spatial features of computational or experimental data to periodic temporal behavior. DMD can be modified into a multiresolution analysis to separate complex dynamics into a hierarchy of multiresolution timescale components, where each level of the hierarchy divides dynamics into distinct background (slow) and foreground (fast) timescales. The multiresolution DMD is capable of characterizing nonlinear dynamical systems in an equation-free manner by recursively decomposing the state of the system into low-rank spatial modes and their temporal Fourier dynamics. Moreover, these multiresolution DMD modes can be used to determined sparse sampling locations which are nearly optimal for dynamic regime classification and full state reconstruction. Specifically, optimized sensors are efficiently chosen using QR column pivots of the DMD library, thus avoiding an NP-hard selection process. We demonstrate the efficacy of the method on several examples, including global sea-surface temperature data, and show that only a small number of sensors are needed for accurate global reconstructions and classification of El Niño events.

description: We present a new computational framework (LEO), that enables us to carry out the very first large-scale, high-resolution computations in the context of the characteristic approach in numerical relativity. At the analytic level, our approach is based on a new implementation of the ``eth'' formalism, using a non-standard representation of the spin-raising and lowering angular operators in terms of non-conformal coordinates on the sphere; we couple this formalism to a partially first-order reduction (in the angular variables) of the Einstein equations. The numerical implementation of our approach supplies the basic building blocks for a highly parallel, easily extensible numerical code. We demonstrate the adaptability and excellent scaling of our numerical code by solving, within our numerical framework, for a scalar field minimally coupled to gravity (the Einstein-Klein-Gordon problem) in 3-dimensions. The nonlinear code is globally second-order convergent, and has been extensively tested using as reference a calibrated code with the same boundary-initial data and radial marching algorithm. In this context, we show how accurately we can follow quasi-normal mode ringing. In the linear regime, we show energy conservation for a number of initial data sets with varying angular structure. A striking result that arises in this context is the saturation of the flow of energy through the Schwarzschild radius. As a final calibration check we perform a large simulation with resolution never achieved before.

description: Alcohol is a commonly abused drug, especially in the United States, which contributes to a death rate of over 2,000 people a year from alcohol poisoning. In particular on college campuses, social binge drinking is prevalent, which can lead to alcohol poisoning, defined as excessive alcohol diffusion into the brain. In the case of alcohol poisoning, ethanol molecules diffuse through the blood brain barrier (BBB) and bind to extrasynaptic gamma aminobutyric acid type A (GABA-AR) receptors which causes neuronal inhibition, nausea, breathing difficulties, and potential death. However, specific binding mechanisms remain unknown. To analyze the biological impacts of alcohol poisoning, we created computational models of the lipid bilayer with an inserted GABA protein and the corresponding ethanol concentration of 0.3 g/dL using molecular dynamics. To examine the social impacts of alcohol consumption and college students’ drinking habits, we conducted a survey of undergraduate students at the University of Maryland. After examining the relationship between family history, parental knowledge of alcohol consumption, and drinking frequency and quantity, we elucidated relationships between these variables. By understanding both the biological and social implications of alcohol consumption, future researchers may be able to develop campaigns to prevent deaths from overconsumption of alcohol.

description: In this review we address to what extent computational techniques can augment our ability to predict toxicity. The first section provides a brief history of empirical observations on toxicity dating back to the dawn of Sumerian civilization. Interestingly, the concept of dose emerged very early on, leading up to the modern emphasis on kinetic properties, which in turn encodes the insight that toxicity is not solely a property of a compound but instead depends on the interaction with the host organism. The next logical step is the current conception of evaluating drugs from a personalized medicine point-of-view. We review recent work on integrating what could be referred to as classical pharmacokinetic analysis with emerging systems biology approaches incorporating multiple omics data. These systems approaches employ advanced statistical analytical data processing complemented with machine learning techniques and use both pharmacokinetic and omics data. We find that such integrated approaches not only provide improved predictions of toxicity but also enable mechanistic interpretations of the molecular mechanisms underpinning toxicity and drug resistance. We conclude the chapter by discussing some of the main challenges, such as how to balance the inherent tension between the predictive capacity of models, which in practice amounts to constraining the number of features in the models versus allowing for rich mechanistic interpretability, i.e. equipping models with numerous molecular features. This challenge also requires patient-specific predictions on toxicity, which in turn requires proper stratification of patients as regards how they respond, with or without adverse toxic effects. In summary, the transformation of the ancient concept of dose is currently successfully operationalized using rich integrative data encoded in patient-specific models.

description: Human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) are multipotent cells that have been proposed for cell therapies due to their immunosuppressive capacity that can be enhanced in the presence of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ). In this study, multilayers of heparin (HEP) and collagen (COL) (HEP/COL) were used as a bioactive surface to enhance the immunomodulatory activity of hMSCs using soluble IFN-γ. Multilayers were formed, via layer-by-layer assembly, varying the final layer between COL and HEP and supplemented with IFN-γ in the culture medium. We evaluated the viability, adhesion, real-time growth, differentiation, and immunomodulatory activity of hMSCs on (HEP/COL) multilayers. HMSCs viability, adhesion, and growth were superior when cultured on (HEP/COL) multilayers compared to tissue culture plastic. We also confirmed that hMSCs osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation remained unaffected when cultured in (HEP/COL) multilayers in the presence of IFN-γ. We measured the immunomodulatory activity of hMSCs by measuring the level of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) expression. IDO expression was higher on (HEP/COL) multilayers treated with IFN-γ. Lastly, we evaluated the suppression of peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) proliferation when co-cultured with hMSCs on (HEP/COL) multilayers with IFN-γ. hMSCs cultured in (HEP/COL) multilayers in the presence of soluble IFN-γ have a greater capacity to suppress PBMC proliferation. Altogether, (HEP/COL) multilayers with IFN-γ in culture medium provides a potent means of enhancing and sustaining immunomodulatory activity to control hMSCs immunomodulation.

description: Neuroimaging studies have shown evidence of disrupted neural adaptation during learning in individuals with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) in several types of tasks, potentially stemming from frontal-posterior cortical underconnectivity (Schipul et al., 2012). The aim of the current study was to examine neural adaptations in an implicit learning task that entails participation of frontal and posterior regions. Sixteen high-functioning adults with ASD and sixteen neurotypical control participants were trained on and performed an implicit dot pattern prototype learning task in a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) session. During the preliminary exposure to the type of implicit prototype learning task later to be used in the scanner, the ASD participants took longer than the neurotypical group to learn the task, demonstrating altered implicit learning in ASD. After equating task structure learning, the two groups' brain activation differed during their learning of a new prototype in the subsequent scanning session. The main findings indicated that neural adaptations in a distributed task network were reduced in the ASD group, relative to the neurotypical group, and were related to ASD symptom severity. Functional connectivitywas reduced and did not change as much during learning for the ASD group, andwas related to ASD symptomseverity. These findings suggest that individualswith ASD showaltered neural adaptations during learning, as seen in both activation and functional connectivity measures. This finding suggestswhy many real-world implicit learning situations may pose special challenges for ASD.

description: Microneedle patches are a promising source for transdermal diffusion of macromolecules and are designed to painlessly penetrate the skin. In this study, a biodegradable chitosan microneedle patch to deliver meloxicam for managing pain in cattle was tested. The potential of reuse of the polymeric solution to fabricate the patches, optimization of fabrication, morphological analysis of the microneedle patch and analysis of preservation of the chemical composition after sterilization were evaluated. In-vitro analysis consisted of studying in-vitro penetration mechanical properties, compression testing analysis of microneedle patch, and in-vitro drug release analysis. In-vivo studies were performed to analyze the dissolution capability of the microneedle patch. Results regarding the physical characteristics, chemical composition, and mechanical properties confirmed that rheological properties of the chitosan solution, present significant differences over time, demonstrating that reusing the solution on the fourth day results in failure patches. Morphological characteristics and chemical composition studies revealed that the process of sterilization (ethylene oxide gas) needed for implanting the patches into the skin did not affect the properties of microneedle patches. In-vitro studies showed that approximately 33.02 ± 3.88% of the meloxicam was released over 7 days. A full penetration of the microneedles into the skin can be obtained by applying approximately 3.2 N. In-vivo studies demonstrated that microneedle patches were capable of swelling and dissolving, exhibiting a dissolution percentage of more than 50% of the original height of microneedle after 7 days. No abnormal tissue, swelling, or inflammation was observed in the implanted area. The results of this work show that chitosan biodegradable microneedle patches may be useful to deliver meloxicam to improve pain management of cattle with positive effects for commercial manufacturing.

description: Cancer is a group of malignant diseases and is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Current treatments can be invasive and nonspecific, therefore killing healthy cells along with cancerous cells. In many types of cancers including lymphoma, signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) is upregulated and regarded as a risk factor for its enhancing tumorigenicity. Thus, STAT3 is a target for cancer therapy. In this project, we explored a viral protein called nsp5 that induces the degradation of STAT3 to develop cancer therapeutics against lymphoma. We cloned the nsp5 gene into a retroviral expression system and determined its expression. Replication-defective retrovirus particles were packaged and used to deliver nsp5 gene into the lymphoma-derived cells. The nsp5 effect on downregulation of STAT3 and tumor cell growth were determined. These results demonstrate that the viral protein can be explored for further preclinical development for potential tumor therapeutics.

description: In a recent article, Biederman and Bar (1999) present several results to support “a class of theories [that] assumes that non-accidental properties (NAPS) might be exploited so that even novel objects can be recognized under depth rotation” — specifically, theories based on ‘geons’ (Biederman, 1987 and Hummel & Biederman, 1992). Biederman and Bar likewise present results that they believe to be inconsistent with a “class of theories … based on generalization from templates specified by metric properties” — specifically, ‘view-based’ or ‘image-based’ theories (Bricolo, Poggio & Logothetis, 1997,Poggio & Edelman, 1990, Tarr & Bülthoff, 1995 and Tarr & Bülthoff, 1998). Because our disagreements with Biederman's theoretical approach have been detailed in many other forums (Hayward & Tarr, 1997, Tarr & Bülthoff, 1995 and Tarr & Bülthoff, 1998) we do not feel it is necessary to respond in kind. We do feel, however, that it is necessary to address a series of straightforwardly incorrect claims made by Biederman and Bar regarding our published results. Below we enumerate these claims, and our replies to each2:

description: This work describes the formulation and evaluation of a chitosan microneedle patch for the transdermal delivery of meloxicam to manage pain in cattle. Microneedle patches composed of chitosan and chitosan/meloxicam were evaluated regarding their chemical composition, uniformity of physical characteristics, capacity to penetrate the skin, and response to thermal and thermo-mechanical changes. Microneedle patches were prepared by varying the percentage of acetic acid used during solution preparation, including 90% (v/v), 50% (v/v), and 10% (v/v). In addition, drug release was assessed by modeling different percentages of penetration into the skin and the number of microneedles on the microneedle patch. Scanning electron microscopy confirmed the presence of microneedles uniformly organized on the patch surface for each percentage of acetic acid used. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy revealed that 10% (v/v) of acetic acid in the solution was a suitable condition to preserve the characteristic bands of chitosan (amide I and amide II) and meloxicam (amine Nsingle bondH stretch and Cdouble bondO stretch) as compared to 90% (v/v) and 50% (v/v) of acetic acid used during the solution preparation. The resultant microneedle patches were successful in penetrating the skin in a cow's cadaver ear. Results demonstrated that the average depth penetration measured after complete dehydration of the penetrated skin was approximately 78 ± 1 μm. Chitosan and chitosan/meloxicam microneedle patches with higher acetic acid percentages reflected greater resistance to compressive force as temperature increased. Time-dependent simulation of the transport of diluted species by COMSOL revealed that the transdermal drug delivery increases in function to the increment of the number of microneedles on the surface patch and percentage of penetration per microneedle. One patch released a drug concentration of 3.57 × 10⁻⁵ mol/m³ in the skin per week, which represents the 26.2% of what is needed for pain management in cattle, established as 1.43 × 10⁻⁴ mol/m³. These results demonstrate that chitosan/meloxicam microneedles patches may be suitable to manage pain in cattle after routine procedures.

description: As the privatization of space flight has led to an increased number of rocket launches and a new era of space exploration, the issue of space debris is becoming a well-researched phenomenon. With more emphasis on future extraterrestrial missions, such as NASA’s Artemis and SpaceX’s Mars missions, there is a growing concern surrounding the unsustainable practices that create space debris. Although there is a plethora of papers discussing the sources of space debris, as well as its negative impacts on the future of space flight, there are comparatively fewer papers discussing active debris removal methods. This study focuses on one such method - namely, using spray foam to remediate space debris. Spray foam has the advantage of being low-cost and multi-use, which differs from most other active removal methods. To determine the viability of spray foam in space debris removal, this study tests the expansion of polyurethane foam in vacuum, a poorly documented characteristic in current literature. From a sample of 20 tests, a maximum volumetric expansion ratio of 53 was found. The resulting discussion focuses on spray foam’s efficacy as an active debris removal method from these observations.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

In this work, we study in detail the impact of the readout photosensor on the energy response of large area (5050 mm2) monolithic LaCl3(Ce) crystals, in particular when replacing a conventional mono-cathode photomultiplier tube by an 88 pixelated silicon photomultiplier. Using the largest commercially available monolithic SiPM array (25 cm2), with a pixel size of 66 mm2, we have measured an average energy resolution of 3.92% FWHM at 662 keV for crystal thicknesses of 10, 20 and 30 mm. The results are confronted with detailed Monte Carlo (MC) calculations, where both optical processes and properties have been included for the reliable tracking of the scintillation photons. After the experimental validation of the MC model, se use our MC code to explore the impact of different a photosensor segmentation (pixel size and granularity) on the energy resolution. Our optical MC simulations predict only a marginal deterioration of the spectroscopic performance for pixels of 33 mm2.

description: This work revisits the pentaquark episode, particularly in reference to lattice QCD, to collect in one place the lessons that have been or should be learnt. This also examines whether, and if yes, where, there might be any prospect for future studies of pentaquarks and the role of lattice QCD in it. Tests such as volume dependence, and hybrid boundary conditions to distinguish bound and scattering states are identified as the positives to take forward from this episode. On the other hand it is also observed that pentaquarks with heavier quark content and in the $SU(3)_f$ limit may still be worth not forgetting, and in that case lattice QCD may have an important role to play.

description: We present a Bayesian and frequentist analysis of the DAMPE charged cosmic ray spectrum. The spectrum, by eye, contained a spectral break at about 1 TeV and a monochromatic excess at about 1.4 TeV. The break was supported by a Bayes factor of about $10^{10}$ and we argue that the statistical significance was resounding. We investigated whether we should attribute the excess to dark matter annihilation into electrons in a nearby subhalo. We found a local significance of about $3.6σ$ and a global significance of about $2.3σ$, including a two-dimensional look-elsewhere effect by simulating 1000 pseudo-experiments. The Bayes factor was sensitive to our choices of priors, but favoured the excess by about 2 for our choices. Thus, whilst intriguing, the evidence for a signal is not currently compelling.

description: Continuum modeling of free-standing graphene monolayer, viewed as a two dimensional 2-lattice, requires specification of the components of the shift vector that acts as an auxiliary variable. If only in-plane motions are considered the energy depends on an in-plane strain measure and the shift vector. The assumption of geometrical and material linearity leads to quadratic energy terms with respect to the shift vector, the strain tensor, and their combinations. Graphene's hexagonal symmetry reduces the number of independent moduli then to four. We evaluate these four material parameters using molecular calculations and the AIREBO potential and compare them with standard linear elastic constitutive modeling. The results of our calculations show that the predicted values are in reasonable agreement with those obtained solely from our molecular calculations as well as those from literature. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first attempt to measure mechanical properties when graphene is modeled as a hexagonal 2-lattice. This work targets at the continuum scale when the insight measurements comes from finer scales using atomistic simulations.

description: Research in several fields now requires the analysis of data sets in which multiple high-dimensional types of data are available for a common set of objects. In particular, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) includes data from several diverse genomic technologies on the same cancerous tumor samples. In this paper we introduce Joint and Individual Variation Explained (JIVE), a general decomposition of variation for the integrated analysis of such data sets. The decomposition consists of three terms: a low-rank approximation capturing joint variation across data types, low-rank approximations for structured variation individual to each data type, and residual noise. JIVE quantifies the amount of joint variation between data types, reduces the dimensionality of the data and provides new directions for the visual exploration of joint and individual structures. The proposed method represents an extension of Principal Component Analysis and has clear advantages over popular two-block methods such as Canonical Correlation Analysis and Partial Least Squares. A JIVE analysis of gene expression and miRNA data on Glioblastoma Multiforme tumor samples reveals gene-miRNA associations and provides better characterization of tumor types.

description: Phonons change remarkable the interatomic bond length in solids and this work suggest a novel method how this behavior can be displayed and analyzed. The bond-length spectrum is plotted for each of the different atomic bonding types. When comparing the bond-length to an un-deformed crystal by the so-called difference bond length spectrum, the effect of phonons is clearly visible. The Perovskite lattice of SrTiO3 is used as an example and several lattice vibration modes are applied in a frozen phonon calculation in a 2x2x2 supercell. Ab-initio DFT simulations using the Vasp software were performed to calculate the density of states. The results show the important finding reported here first, that certain phonon interactions with shorter Ti-O bonds decrease the band gap, while changes in the Sr-Ti bond length enlarge the band gap.

description: Energy transport control in low dimensional nano-scale systems has attracted much attention in recent years. In this paper, we investigate the energy transport properties of Frenkel-Kontorova lattice subject to a periodic driving force, in particular, the resonance behavior of the energy current by varying the external driving frequency. It is discovered that in certain parameter ranges, multiple resonance peaks, instead of a single resonance, emerge. By comparing the nonlinear lattice model with a harmonic chain, we unravel the underlying physical mechanism for such resonance phenomenon. Other parameter dependencies of the resonance behavior are examined as well. Finally, we demonstrate that heat pumping is actually absent in this force-driven model.

description: Differentiation and integration played large roles within classic developmental theories but have been relegated to obscurity within contemporary theories. However, they may have a useful role to play in modern theories as well, if conceptualized as guiding principles for analyzing change rather than as real-time mechanisms. In the present study, we used this perspective to examine which rules children use, the order in which the rules emerge, and the effectiveness of instruction on water displacement problems. We found that children used systematic rules to solve such problems, and that the rules progress from undifferentiated to differentiated forms and toward increasingly accurate integration of the differentiated variables. Asking children to explain both why correct answers were correct and why incorrect answers were incorrect proved more effective than only requesting explanations of correct answers, which was more effective than just receiving feedback on the correctness of answers. Requests for explanations appeared to operate through helping children notice potential explanatory variables, formulate more advanced rules, and generalize the rules to novel problems.
Computing Ground States of Spin-1 Bose-Einstein Condensates by the Normalized Gradient Flow

description: In this paper, we propose an efficient and accurate numerical method for computing the ground state of spin-1 Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) by using the normalized gradient flow or imaginary time method. The key idea is to find a third projection or normalization condition based on the relation between the chemical potentials so that the three projection parameters used in the projection step of the normalized gradient flow are uniquely determined by this condition as well as the other two physical conditions given by the conservation of total mass and total magnetization. This allows us to successfully extend the most popular and powerful normalized gradient flow or imaginary time method for computing the ground state of single component BEC to compute the ground state of spin-1 BEC. An efficient and accurate discretization scheme, the backward-forward Euler sine-pseudospectral method (BFSP), is proposed to discretize the normalized gradient flow. Extensive numerical results on ground states of spin-1 BEC with ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic interaction and harmonic/optical lattice potential in one/three dimensions are reported to demonstrate the efficiency of our new numerical method.

description: Using special quasirandom structures (SQS's), we perform first-principles calculations studying the metastable bcc NiCu and FeCu alloys which occur in Fe-Cu-Ni alloy steels as precipitated second phase. The mixing enthalpies, density of state, and equilibrium lattice parameters of these alloys are reported. The results show that quasi-chemical approach and vegard rule can well predict the energetic and structural properties of FeCu alloys but fail to yield that of NiCu. The reason rests with the difference of bond energy variation with composition between NiCu and FeCu alloys induced by competition between ferromagnetic and paramagnetic state. Furthermore, the calculated results show that the energetic and structural properties of these alloys can well explain the local composition of the corresponding precipitates in ferrite steels.

description: Human mesenchymal stromal cells (hMSCs) are multipotent cells that have been proposed for the treatment of immune-mediated diseases. Culturing hMSCs on tissue culture plastic reduces their therapeutic potential in part due to the lack of extracellular matrix components. The aim of this study is to evaluate multilayers of heparin and poly(L-lysine) (HEP/PLL) as a bioactive surface for hMSCs stimulated with soluble interferon gamma (IFN-γ). Multilayers were formed, via layer-by-layer assembly, with HEP as the final layer and supplemented with IFN-γ in the culture medium. Multilayer construction and chemistry were confirmed using Azure A staining, quartz crystal microbalance, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. hMSCs adhesion, viability, and differentiation, were assessed. Results showed that (HEP/PLL) multilayer coatings were poorly adhesive for hMSCs. However, performing chemical crosslinking using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl) carbodiimide and N-hydroxysuccinimide significantly enhanced hMSCs adhesion and viability. The immunosuppressive properties of hMSCs cultured on crosslinked (HEP/PLL) multilayers were confirmed by measuring indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase activity. Lastly, hMSCs cultured on crosslinked (HEP/PLL) multilayers in the presence of soluble IFN- γ successfully differentiated towards the osteogenic and adipogenic lineages as confirmed by Alizarin red, and oil-red O staining, as well as alkaline phosphatase activity. This study suggests that crosslinked (HEP/PLL) films can modulate hMSCs response to soluble factors, which may improve hMSCs-based therapies aimed at treating several immune diseases.
