Label-Free Cell-Based Assay for Characterization of Biomolecules and Receptors.

We present a method to study the interaction between biomolecules and receptors present on the cell surface. This enables studies of molecular interactions in a natural biological context. As the analyte interacts with the receptors still intact on the cell surface, the experimental data provides complete dynamics and complexity of the interaction, thereby generating highly informative data.

Reading and visual processing in Greek dyslexic children: an eye-movement study.

We examined the impact of the effects of dyslexia on various processing and cognitive components (e.g., reading speed and accuracy) in a language with high phonological and orthographic consistency.

Dynamics of swollen gel layers anchored to solid surfaces.

We employ a dynamic micro light scattering technique to probe the thermal concentration fluctuations in surface-attached poly-N-isopropylacrylamide (PNIPAAm) gel layers swollen in ethanol as a good solvent. At the equilibrium swelling state, the relaxation function exhibits two decays in the time range between microseconds and seconds and the characteristic rates display a pure diffusive behavior. The fast cooperative diffusion increases with crosslinking density as a result of the decrease in the dynamic network mesh size.
