The cochlea is one of the most complex organs in the human body, exhibiting a complex interplay of characteristics in acoustic, mechanical, electrical, and biological functions.Functional cochlea models are an essential platform SECTIONING CLIPS for studying hearing mechanics and are crucial for developing next-generation auditory prostheses and ar
The maternally inherited endosymbiont, Wolbachia pipientis, plays an important role in the ecology and evolution of many of its hosts by affecting host reproduction and fitness.Here, we investigated 13 dipteran leaf-mining species to characterize Wolbachia infections and the potential for this endosymbiont in biocontrol.Wolbachia infections were pr
In this paper, we present a wearable smart system to help visually impaired persons (VIPs) walk by themselves through the streets, navigate in public places, and seek assistance.The main components of the system are a microcontroller board, various sensors, cellular communication and GPS modules, and a solar panel.The system employs a set of sensor
