What Is Stochastic Resonance? Definitions, Misconceptions, Debates, and Its Relevance to Biology
Mark D. McDonnell,Derek Abbott +1 more
- 01 Jan 2009
TL;DR: This work challenges neuroscientists and biologists to embrace a very broad definition of stochastic resonance in terms of signal-processing “noise benefits”, and to devise experiments aimed at verifying that random variability can play a functional role in the brain, nervous system, or other areas of biology.
High-Sensitivity Metamaterial-Inspired Sensor for Microfluidic Dielectric Characterization
TL;DR: In this article, a metamaterial-inspired microwave microfluidic sensor is proposed, where the main part of the device is a microstrip coupled complementary split-ring resonator (CSRR), and the liquid sample flowing inside the channel modifies the resonance frequency and peak attenuation of the CSRR resonance.
Alcoholic fermentation of carbon sources in biomass hydrolysates by Saccharomyces cerevisiae : current status
Antonius J. A. van Maris,Derek Abbott,Eleonora Bellissimi,Joost van den Brink,Marko Kuyper,Marijke A. H. Luttik,H. Wouter Wisselink,W. Alexander Scheffers,Johannes P. van Dijken,Jack T. Pronk +9 more
TL;DR: The current status with respect to alcoholic fermentation of the main plant biomass-derived monosaccharides by this yeast is reviewed and possible approaches for metabolic engineering of galacturonic acid and rhamnose fermentation by S. cerevisiae are discussed.

TL;DR: Although the technology is not yet mature, it is anticipated that in the near future, accurate, continuous BP measurements may be available from mobile and wearable devices given their vast potential.
A review of 3-D packaging technology
TL;DR: In this paper, the state-of-the-art in 3D packaging technology for very large scale integration (VLSI) is reviewed, where a number of bare dice and multichip module (MCM) stacking technologies are emerging to meet the ever increasing demands for low power consumption, low weight and compact portable systems.
