KA Stofer - Journal of Human Sciences and Extension, 2015 - jhseonline.com

… The varied use of the terms informal education, nonformal education, and formal education draw distinctions that serve to divide, not unite, … agriscience education goals. What in Extension education is nonformal learning is informal learning in science education....

Systematic Investigation of the Alucone-Coating Enhancement on Silicon Anodes.

ACS applied materials & interfaces

Son SB, Wang Y, Xu J, Li X, Groner M, Stokes A, Yang Y, Cheng YT, Ban C.
PMID: 28948765
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces. 2017 Nov 22;9(46):40143-40150. doi: 10.1021/acsami.7b08960. Epub 2017 Nov 07.

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is the most popular binder in commercial lithium-ion batteries but is incompatible with a silicon (Si) anode because it fails to maintain the mechanical integrity of the Si electrode upon cycling. Herein, an alucone coating synthesized...

Using Voice Coils to Actuate Modular Soft Robots: Wormbot, an Example.

Soft robotics

Nemitz MP, Mihaylov P, Barraclough TW, Ross D, Stokes AA.
PMID: 28078195
Soft Robot. 2016 Dec 01;3(4):198-204. doi: 10.1089/soro.2016.0009.

In this study, we present a modular worm-like robot, which utilizes voice coils as a new paradigm in soft robot actuation. Drive electronics are incorporated into the actuators, providing a significant improvement in self-sufficiency when compared with existing soft...

A Population-Based Digital Reference Object (DRO) for Optimizing Dynamic Susceptibility Contrast (DSC)-MRI Methods for Clinical Trials.

Tomography (Ann Arbor, Mich.)

Semmineh NB, Stokes AM, Bell LC, Boxerman JL, Quarles CC.
PMID: 28584878
Tomography. 2017 Mar;3(1):41-49. doi: 10.18383/j.tom.2016.00286.

The standardization and broad-scale integration of dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been confounded by a lack of consensus on DSC-MRI methodology for preventing potential relative cerebral blood volume inaccuracies, including the choice of acquisition protocols and...

The impact of primary and persistent cytomegalovirus infection on the progression of acute colitis in a murine model.

Pathophysiology : the official journal of the International Society for Pathophysiology

Brunson JL, Becker F, Stokes KY.
PMID: 25511533
Pathophysiology. 2015 Mar;22(1):31-7. doi: 10.1016/j.pathophys.2014.11.001. Epub 2014 Nov 18.

Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infects 60-100% of the population worldwide. CMV has been implicated in many diseases through the induction of inflammation. Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) affects over 1 million Americans annually. IBD, in particular ulcerative colitis, has been associated with...

A Spiking Neural Network Model of the Lateral Geniculate Nucleus on the SpiNNaker Machine.

Frontiers in neuroscience

Sen-Bhattacharya B, Serrano-Gotarredona T, Balassa L, Bhattacharya A, Stokes AB, Rowley A, Sugiarto I, Furber S.
PMID: 28848380
Front Neurosci. 2017 Aug 09;11:454. doi: 10.3389/fnins.2017.00454. eCollection 2017.

We present a spiking neural network model of the thalamic Lateral Geniculate Nucleus (LGN) developed on SpiNNaker, which is a state-of-the-art digital neuromorphic hardware built with very-low-power ARM processors. The parallel, event-based data processing in SpiNNaker makes it viable...
