Detection of a reassortant swine- and human-origin H3N2 influenza A virus in farmed mink in British Columbia, Canada

The paper detects a reassortant H3N2 influenza A virus in farmed mink in British Columbia, linked to swine and human origins, highlighting zoonotic risks and the need for surveillance.

Convection-enhanced diffusion and directed withdrawal of methylene blue in agarose hydrogel using finite element analyses

This study uses finite element analysis to simulate convection-enhanced drug delivery in agarose hydrogels, showing how directed flow improves drug distribution and concentration control.

In Silico, Brain Mesh Platform for Computing Topographic Dependent Internal Facets

The paper develops a brain modeling platform using patient MRI data to simulate drug dispersal and fluid flow in healthy and diseased brains, focusing on glioblastoma.

MRI-to-Synthetic 3D Gel Brain: Proof-of-Concept Fabrication For Intra-Parenchymal Diffusion Studies

This paper demonstrates a method to create synthetic 3D gel brains from MRI data to study intra-parenchymal diffusion, showing improved representation of diffusion profiles compared to simple gel models.

Selective Vulnerability of Senescent Glioblastoma Cells to Bcl-XL Inhibition

This study identifies Bcl-XL inhibition as a selective vulnerability of senescent glioblastoma cells following radiation or TMZ treatment.

Radiation Induced Metabolic Alterations Associate with Tumor Aggressiveness and Poor Outcome in Glioblastoma

This study shows that prior radiation therapy promotes tumor aggressiveness in glioblastoma by inducing metabolic changes that create a protumorigenic microenvironment.
