Desktop Slide Impactor
BACKGROUND Although impact testing is extensively used in the research, development, and quality control of mechanical structures, slide impactors delivering shear impact on an external surface (i.e., “slide impact”) has not yet been developed. The lack of a commercially available device to evaluate realistic slide impacts means a narrow...

Photobiodegradable Plastics via PPDvSOP improvement
BACKGROUND At first plastics were welcome as blessings. Specifically, their durability, high strength per weight and low cost have made them the ideal packaging materials. However, the last seven decades have proved, those same attributes combined with improper waste management, led to a plastic pollution problem. An estimated 6300 million metric tons...

Engineering Mesenchymal Stem Cells for COPD Therapy
BACKGROUND The discovery of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have resulted in a plethora of opportunities to produce tissue-specific cell types for disease modeling, drug screening and treatments for diseases. For pulmonary diseases such as COPD, stem cells have been a proposed strategy to repair damaged lungs....
