NeuroBlu, an electronic health record (EHR) trusted research environment (TRE) to support mental healthcare analytics with real-world data.

Purpose: NeuroBlu is a real-world data (RWD) repository that contains deidentified electronic health record (EHR) data from US mental healthcare providers operating the MindLinc EHR system. NeuroBlu enables users to perform statistical analysis through a secure web-based interface. Structured data are available for sociodemographic characteristics, mental health service contacts, hospital admissions, International Classification of Diseases ICD-9/ICD-10 diagnosis, prescribed medications, family history of mental disorders, Clinical Global Impression-Severity and Improvement (CGI-S/CGI-I) and Global Assessment of Functioning (GAF).

CKD subpopulations defined by risk-factors: A longitudinal analysis of electronic health records.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a progressive disease that evades early detection and is associated with various comorbidities. Although clinical comprehension and control of these comorbidities is crucial for CKD management, complex pathophysiological interactions and feedback loops make this a formidable task. We have developed a hybrid semimechanistic modeling methodology to investigate CKD progression.

Long spin coherence length and bulk-like spin-orbit torque in ferrimagnetic multilayers.

Spintronics relies on magnetization switching through current-induced spin torques. However, because spin transfer torque for ferromagnets is a surface torque, a large switching current is required for a thick, thermally stable ferromagnetic cell, and this remains a fundamental obstacle for high-density non-volatile applications with ferromagnets. Here, we report a long spin coherence length and associated bulk-like torque characteristics in an antiferromagnetically coupled ferrimagnetic multilayer.

Observation of Out-of-Plane Spin Texture in a SrTiO_{3}(111) Two-Dimensional Electron Gas.

We explore the second order bilinear magnetoelectric resistance (BMER) effect in the d-electron-based two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at the SrTiO_{3}(111) surface. We find evidence of a spin-split band structure with the archetypal spin-momentum locking of the Rashba effect for the in-plane component. Under an out-of-plane magnetic field, we find a BMER signal that breaks the sixfold symmetry of the electronic dispersion, which is a fingerprint for the presence of a momentum-dependent out-of-plane spin component.

Field-Free Spin-Orbit Torque Switching from Geometrical Domain-Wall Pinning.

Spin-orbit torques, which utilize spin currents arising from the spin-orbit coupling, offer a novel method for the electrical switching of the magnetization with perpendicular anisotropy. However, the necessity of an external magnetic field to achieve deterministic switching is an obstacle for realizing practical spin-orbit torque devices with all-electric operation. Here, we report field-free spin-orbit torque switching by exploiting the domain-wall motion in an anti-notched microwire with perpendicular anisotropy, which exhibits multidomain states stabilized by the domain-wall surface tension.

Room temperature magnetization switching in topological insulator-ferromagnet heterostructures by spin-orbit torques.

Topological insulators with spin-momentum-locked topological surface states are expected to exhibit a giant spin-orbit torque in the topological insulator/ferromagnet systems. To date, the topological insulator spin-orbit torque-driven magnetization switching is solely reported in a Cr-doped topological insulator at 1.9 K.

Room-Temperature Giant Charge-to-Spin Conversion at the SrTiO-LaAlO Oxide Interface.

The two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) formed at the interface between SrTiO (STO) and LaAlO (LAO) insulating layer is supposed to possess strong Rashba spin-orbit coupling. To date, the inverse Edelstein effect (i.e.

Enhanced Spin-Orbit Torque via Modulation of Spin Current Absorption.

The magnitude of spin-orbit torque (SOT), exerted to a ferromagnet (FM) from an adjacent heavy metal (HM), strongly depends on the amount of spin current absorbed in the FM. We exploit the large spin absorption at the Ru interface to manipulate the SOTs in HM/FM/Ru multilayers. While the FM thickness is smaller than its spin dephasing length of 1.
