The acronym VM2M might stand for Virtual Microscopy to Microarray, but for cancer researchers it means revolutionizing a part of the investigative process.
Expert pathologists depend on microscopy, or the latest use of microscopes, to examine and review diseased tissue. Their conclusions help oncologists form the foundation for treatments.
A soldier’s ability to survive a mine blast greatly improves if armored vehicles are equipped with energy-absorbing seats, according to recent studies by Ala Tabiei, Ph.D., an aerospace engineer at the University of Cincinnati.
Among several interests studied by University of Toledo physicist Jacques Amar, Ph.D., are the processes behind epitaxial thin-film growth, in which the crystals of the film are aligned with the underlying material.
The research of Ohio State University physicist John Wilkins, Ph.D., examines how complex structures form in nature.
By employing molecular dynamics simulations, an Ohio State University researcher is investigating how DNA is damaged by ultraviolet (UV) light.
Ohio State University chemistry professor Christopher Hadad, Ph.D., is developing measures that will stop, or even prevent, the effects of lethal chemical warfare agents such as the nerve agent sarin. At the center of his research are organophosphinates (OPs), extremely toxic chemicals that attack the central nervous system and can cause deadly convulsions.
