Parametric Study and Experimental Validation of Acoustic Leaky Wave Antenna in Spatial Localization by Alejandro Fernandez-Garrido, Maria Campo-Valera, Elena Abdo-Sanchez, Ruben Pico, Antonio-Javier Garcia-Sanchez, Rafael Asorey-Cacheda

“…ALWA technology employs a single transducer to emit directional beams that scan angular space by frequency manipulation. Conventional arrays offer cost-effectiveness and simplicity of design, but ALWAs have the advantage of operating on the principle of energy leakage, which is achieved by various mechanisms, such as uniform apertures or slits periodic along the waveguide. …”

A practical guide to FAIR data management in the age of multi-OMICS and AI by Douaa Mugahid, Jared Lyon, Charlie Demurjian, Nathan Eolin, Charlie Whittaker, Mark Godek, Douglas Lauffenburger, Sarah Fortune, Stuart Levine

“…However, these ambitious efforts are often limited by access to a variety of high-density intra-, extra- and multi-cellular measurements resolved in time and space and across a variety of perturbations. The advent of automation, OMICs and single-cell technologies now allows high dimensional multi-modal data acquisition from the same biological samples multiplexed at scale (multi-OMICs). …”

Mechanistic elucidation of human pancreatic acinar development using single-cell transcriptome analysis on a human iPSC differentiation model by Atsushi Mima, Azuma Kimura, Ryo Ito, Yu Hatano, Hiraku Tsujimoto, Shin-Ichi Mae, Junko Yamane, Wataru Fujibuchi, Norimitsu Uza, Taro Toyoda, Hiroshi Seno, Kenji Osafune

“…In this study, we aimed to elucidate the developmental mechanisms of pancreatic exocrine acinar lineages to establish a directed differentiation method for pancreatic acinar cells from hiPSCs. hiPSC-derived pancreatic endoderm cells were spontaneously differentiated into both pancreatic exocrine and endocrine tissues by implantation into the renal subcapsular space of NOD/SCID mice. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis of the retrieved grafts confirmed the differentiation of pancreatic acinar lineage cells and identified REG4 as a candidate marker for pancreatic acinar progenitor cells. …”
