Artificial imine reductases: developments and future directions

MEMS - Recent Developments, Future Directions

This report deals with the field of micro-electromechanical systems, or MEMS. MEMS encompass the process-based technologies used to fabricate tiny integrated devices and/or systems that integrate functionalities from different physical domains into one device. Such devices are fabricated using a wide range of technologies, having in common the ability to create structures with microand even nan...

Simultaneous Multithreading: Present Developments and Future Directions

Evaluative Conditioning: Recent Developments and Future Directions

Evaluative conditioning (EC) is generally considered to be one of the routes via which likes and dislikes are acquired. We identify recent trends in EC research and speculate about the topics that will dominate future research on EC. Many of the recent developments in EC research were shaped by functional definitions of EC that refer only to environmental conditions, but not to mental processes...

Neurovisual rehabilitation: recent developments and future directions.

Central visual and oculomotor disorders are present in some 20%-40% of patients in neurological rehabilitation centres. Gianutsos reported that 50% of the patients in a head trauma rehabilitation centre show visual system disorders not assessed before although most of the patients were chronic and had been treated in other hospitals previously. In a large sample of 314 patients with postchiasma...

Lung, Artificial: Current Research and Future Directions

Artificial lungs are medical devices designed to take over or supplement the respiratory function of the lung: oxygenating the blood and removing carbon dioxide. They are generally classified as extracorporeal, paracorporeal, intravascular, or intrathoracic devices (Fig. 1). The artificial lungs used clinically today are extracorporeal blood oxygenators, primarily used in operations requiring c...
