synDNA—a Synthetic DNA Spike-in Method for Absolute Quantification of Shotgun Metagenomic Sequencing

The synDNAs designed in this study enable accurate and reproducible measurements of absolute amount and fold changes of bacterial species in complex microbial communities. The method proposed here is versatile and promising as it can be applied to bacterial communities or genomic features like genes and operons, in addition to being easily adaptable by other research groups at a low cost.

A Small, Low Cost Event-Driven Architecture for Spiking Neural Networks on FPGAs

Currently, there is a lack of availability of low cost, low power neuromorphic hardware. In this work, we introduce the μCaspian architecture along with an associated development PCB design which provides a low cost and SWaP (size, weight, and power) optimized neuromorphic hardware platform. Further, our proposed system only uses commercial off the shelf components and an open source FPGA workflow to maximize the accessibility of μCaspian to all researchers.

The D614G mutation in Spike: increased infectivity and neutralizing Ab sensitivity and the underlying mechanism [Slides]

Evidence is presented that there are now more SARS-CoV-2 viruses circulating in the human population globally that have the G614 form that was originally identified from the first human cases in Wuhan, China. Follow-up studies show that patients infected with G614 shed more viral nucleic avid compared with those with D614 and G614-bearing viruses show significantly higher infectious titers in vitro than their D614 counterparts.

Regulatory Spike Testing of RPP-WTP LAW and HLW Glasses for Compliance with Land Disposal Restrictions, VSL-03R3760-1, Rev. 1

The United States Department of Energy’s (DOE’s) Hanford site is the current location of storage of about 50 million gallons of mixed waste. This waste is stored in underground tanks at the Hanford site and is both a listed and characteristic waste, as defined in 40 CFR Part 261, and a dangerous waste according to Chapter 173-303 of the Washington Administrative Code (WAC). The waste is also subject to the Land Disposal Restrictions (LDR) (40 CFR Part 268 and WAC 173-303-140). The River Protection Project - Waste Treatment Plant (RPP-WTP) will provide DOE with a means for treating this waste by vitrification (for subsequent disposal). The tank waste will be partitioned into low and high activity fractions, which will then be vitrified respectively into Immobilized Low Activity Waste (ILAW) and Immobilized High Level Waste (IHLW) products. The ILAW product will be disposed of in an engineered facility on the Hanford site while the IHLW product will be directed to the national deep geological disposal facility for high level nuclear waste. The ILAW and IHLW products must meet a variety of requirements with respect to protection of the environment.
