Maseda, Mengyuan Xiao

“…Pure parallel observing naturally creates a “wedding cake” survey with both wide and ultra-deep tiers, with 5 σ point-source depths at F444W ranging from 27.8–29.4 (ABmag), and with minimized cosmic variance. The ≳6-filter strategy yields remarkably good photometric redshift performance, achieving similar median scatter and outlier fraction as CANDELS ( σ _NMAD ∼ 0.07; η ∼ 0.2), enabling a wealth of science across redshift without need for follow-up or ancillary data. …”

“…This novel approach offers several advantages: (1) it eliminates the need for anesthesia in mice during administration and simplifies the instrument manipulation; (2) it is cost-effective by utilizing mice instead of larger animals; (3) it shortens the time from several months to 16 or 17 days for obtaining result; (4) it is non-invasive by directly measuring the live RLUs of mice as a surrogate marker for colony-forming units for in vivo drug activity testing; (5) up to six mice can be administrated daily and simultaneously, even 2–3 times/day; (6) results are relatively objective and reproducible results minimizing human factors. Proof-of-concept experiments demonstrated that inhalable rifampicin, isoniazid, and ethambutol showed anti-M. tuberculosis activity at concentrations as low as 0.5, 0.5, and 0.625 mg/mL, respectively, as evidenced by comparing the live RLUs of mice. …”
