Applying a hierarchical linear model to investigate intra-individual variability in response time as a predictor for neurocognitive impairment
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-05)
The Alzheimer’s Association Research Roundtable has called for research to focus on the development of diagnostics that identify dementia and Alzheimer’s’ disease (AD) before overt symptoms arise and the disease accelerates. ...
Auto-Adapting Circuit Topology for Efficient Wireless Power Transfer via Magnetic Resonances
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-08)
As the world moves away from using wired connections to transmit data, wireless power transfer (WPT) offers another opportunity for "cutting the cord." Technologies such as magnetic induction and radiative transmission ...
How Stress Affects Concurrent Learning and Memory Integration during Decision-Making
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-05)
Spatial navigation presents as a realistic way to measure decision-making as acute stress has been shown to disrupt the hippocampal network involved in planning during navigation (Gagnon et al., 2018) and encourage the use ...
Basal Forebrain Degeneration and Cortisol as Biomarkers Mediating Alzheimer’s Disease Pathology: A Machine Learning Approach
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-05)
The impact of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) on today’s society and healthcare is unprecedented. As a larger portion of today’s population enters an age for which AD becomes a health concern, there is growing support among health ...
Towards a Quantum Steganographic Capacity of Lossy Bosonic Channels
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-12)
Quantum steganography is the extension of steganography to the quantum setting, wherein a quantum protocol (e.g.: a quantum error-correcting code) is used to hide classical or quantum information. Because of the unique ...
Characterizing Heme Signaling and Bioavailability in Neurodegeneration
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-05)
Alzheimer’s disease is a neurodegenerative condition that results in cognitive decline, impacting over 40 million people worldwide. Alzheimer’s is characterized by amyloid beta plaques, tau tangles and neuroinflammation. ...
Cyclic mechanical stretch upregulates Akt, MAPK, and NF-kappaB signaling pathways in BV2 microglia
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-05-24)
Mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) is prevalent in contact sports. Post injury, microglia in the central nervous system are known to produce an inflammatory response. Moreover, with repeated injuries, chronic inflammation ...
Exploring Relationships in Alzheimer’s APOE Transgenic Mice
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-05)
Background: Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotypes typically increase risk of amyloid-β deposition and onset of clinical Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, cognitive assessments in APOE transgenic AD mice have resulted in ...
Learning to Airbnb by Engaging in Online Communities of Practice
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-05)
Technological advances, combined with sustained, minimalist consumerism, have raised the popularity of sharing economy platforms like Airbnb and Uber. These platforms are considered to have disrupted traditional industries ...
An Anti-Influenza Strategy Based on siRNA Approach Targeting the Critical Viral and Host Factors
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2022-05)
The influenza virus remains a major public health concern causing significant morbidity and mortality in humans. Vaccination is considered the most effective prevention strategy as antivirals are suboptimal in treating the ...
