Weakly supervised bilayer convolutional network in segmentation of HER2 related cells to guide HER2 targeted therapies.

Overexpression of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2/ERBB2) is identified as a prognostic marker in metastatic breast cancer and a predictor to determine the effects of ERBB2-targeted drugs. Accurate ERBB2 testing is essential in determining the optimal treatment for metastatic breast cancer patients. Brightfield dual in situ hybridization (DISH) was recently authorized by the United States Food and Drug Administration for the assessment of ERRB2 overexpression, which however is a challenging task due to a variety of reasons.

Suppressing the Initial Growth of Sidewall GaN by Modifying Micron-Sized Patterned Sapphire Substrate with H₃PO₄-Based Etchant.

Micron-sized patterned sapphire substrates (PSS) are used to improve the performance of GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs). However, the growth of GaN is initiated not only from the bottom c-plane but also from the sidewall of the micron-sized patterns. Therefore, the coalescence of these GaN crystals creates irregular voids.

High Performance and Low power Monolithic Three-Dimensional Sub-50 nm Poly Si Thin film transistor (TFTs) Circuits.

Development of manufacture trend for TFTs technologies has focused on improving electrical properties of films with the cost reduction to achieve commercialization. To achieve this goal, high-performance sub-50 nm TFTs-based MOSFETs with ON-current (I)/subthreshold swing (S.S.

Synthesis of Pt nanopetals on highly ordered silicon nanocones for enhanced methanol electrooxidation activity.

Platinum (Pt) nanopetals were electrodeposited on highly ordered silicon nanocones (SiNCs) and explored as the electrocatalyst for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) for direct methanol fuel cells applications. Highly ordered SiNCs array fabricated using the porous anodic aluminum oxide as the template had a high surface area. Well-dispersed Pt nanopetals possessing high electrocatalytic surface area was synthesized by pulse-electrodeposition on the SiNCs.

A promising approach to the synthesis of 3D nanoporous graphitic carbon as a unique electrocatalyst support for methanol oxidation.

A 3D nanoporous graphitic carbon (g-C) material is synthesized by using an adamantane (C(10)H(16)) flame, and utilized to support a Pt(50)-Ru(50) alloy catalyst. The physico-chemical properties of the Pt(50)-Ru(50)/3D nanoporous g-C electrode are examined by a range of spectroscopy techniques as well as Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area analysis. Cyclic voltammetry measurements are used for electrochemical characterization of the Pt(50)-Ru(50)/3D nanoporous g-C electrode.
