Bioeconomic-Epidemiological Model of Scomber colias Population in the Moroccan Coasts by Nossaiba Baba, Imane Agmour, Yousef El Foutayeni, Naceur Achtaich

“…In this paper, we develop and study a mathematical model for the dynamics of Scomber colias and Thunnus thynnus prey-predator with parasitic helminths. We search to analyze a bioeconomic model in which both susceptible and infected prey populations Scomber colias are exposed to the predator Thunnus thynnus, with varying degrees of exposure. …”

High-frequency electrochemical impedance measurements of self-assembled monolayer formation using CMOS-based nanocapacitor arrays by Selvaraj Chinnathambi, Mohammad Saghafi, Suryasnata Tripathy, Frans P. Widdershoven, Serge G. Lemay

“…Measuring the AC response of miniaturized electrodes is however highly challenging due to the parasitic capacitance of the interconnects. Here we employ nanoelectrodes integrated with readout circuitry on the same complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) chip to conduct measurements over a frequency range from 1.6 MHz to 50 MHz. …”
