Front Plant Sci. 2015 Nov 26;6:1048. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2015.01048. eCollection 2015.

Peptide signals mediate a variety of cell-to-cell communication crucial for plant growth and development. During Arabidopsis thaliana vascular development, a CLE (CLAVATA3/EMBRYO SURROUNDING REGION-related) family peptide hormone, TDIF (tracheary element differentiation inhibitory factor), regulates procambial cell fate by its...

Low light photography suffers from blur and noise. In this paper, we propose a novel method to recover a dense estimate of spatially varying blur kernel as well as a denoised and deblurred image from a single noisy and...

Membranous nephropathy with monoclonal IgG4 deposits and associated IgG4-related lung disease.

Clin Kidney J. 2014 Oct;7(5):475-8. doi: 10.1093/ckj/sfu077. Epub 2014 Jul 25.

A 62-year-old woman was admitted for nephrotic syndrome and lung tumor. A renal biopsy showed membranous features of the glomeruli. Immunofluorescence studies revealed granular IgG4-κ deposits along with the glomerular basement membrane. Electron microscopy revealed granular electron-dense deposits. Further...

Opt Express. 2017 Sep 18;25(19):23181-23190. doi: 10.1364/OE.25.023181.

In this paper, we demonstrate that forward bias (+0.9V) of a high-speed silicon (Si) optical Mach-Zehnder modulator (MZM) increases the radio-frequency (RF) link gain by 30 dB when compared to reverse bias operation (-8V). RF applications require tunable, narrowband...
