    Pai-Yen PY Chen and Andrea A Alù

    ACS Nano 5(7):5855-63 (2011) PMID 21662981

    We discuss here the use of a graphene monolayer to realize the concept of 'cloaking by a surface', proposing the thinnest possible mantle cloak with operation in the far-infrared and Terahertz (THz) regime. We show that an atomically thin graphene monolayer may drastically suppress the scattering of...

    Metabolism 60(11):1545-50 (2011) PMID 21632081

    We investigated the functional defects of DAX-1 caused by mutations identified in 3 unrelated Korean patients with adrenal hypoplasia congenita. The DAX-1 gene was directly sequenced using genomic DNA isolated from peripheral blood leukocytes. The functional defects of DAX-1 caused by mutations were...

    Most materials respond either elastically or inelastically to applied stress, while repeated loading can result in mechanical fatigue. Conversely, bones and other biomechanical tissues have the ability to strengthen when subjected to recurring elastic stress. The cyclic compressive loading of vertica...
