Towards CARS Endoscopy

Towards CARS Endoscopy.

We provide a proof-of-principle demonstration of CARS endoscopy. The design utilizes a single mode optical fiber with a focusing unit attached to the distal end. Picosecond pump and Stokes pulse trains in the near infrared are delivered through the fiber with nearly unaltered spectral and temporal characteristics at intensities needed for endoscopy. CARS endoscopic images are recorded by collec...

Towards Adapting Cars to their Drivers

Traditionally, vehicles have been considered as machines that are controlled by humans for the purpose of transportation. A more modern view is to envision drivers and passengers as actively interacting with a complex automated system. Such interactive activity leads us to consider intelligent and advanced ways of interaction leading to cars that can adapt to

Remote Controlled CARs: Towards a Safer Therapy for Leukemia.

Genetic engineering of patient T cells with chimeric antigen receptors (CAR T cells) provides a powerful tool for inducing remissions in patients with various cancers derived from B cells. Challenges stemming from the inability to control the CAR T cells once given pose significant safety concerns. An article in Cancer Immunology Research presents an approach to circumvent this issue. Cancer Im...
