Risk-averse estimates of effective properties in heterogeneous elasticity by Bleyer, Jeremy

“…In this work, we propose a theoretical framework for computing pessimistic and optimistic estimates of effective properties in the case of heterogeneous elastic materials with uncertain microscopic elastic properties. We rely on a risk-averse measure widely used in finance called the conditional-value at risk (CVaR). …”

Annexin A5–Functionalized Nanoparticle for Multimodal Imaging of Cell Death by Rui Zhang, Miao Huang, Min Zhou, Xiaoxia Wen, Qian Huang, Chun Li

“…Moreover, the radioactive signal from 111 In-labeled annexin A5–CCPM colocalized with its fluorescence signal, and both signals were confined to regions of dying cells. 111 In-labeled annexin A5–CCPM allows visualization of cell death by both nuclear and optical techniques at the whole-body level as well as at the microscopic level. It has the potential to aid the diagnosis of disease states or tissue responses involving abnormal cell death.…”
