The circadian clock gene period extends healthspan in aging Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Krishnan, Natraj, Kretzchmar, Doris, Rakshit, Kuntol, Chow, Eileen, and Giebultowicz, Jadwiga M.
Abstract:: There is increasing evidence that aging is affected by biological (circadian) clocks – the internal mechanisms that coordinate daily changes in gene expression, physiological functions and behavior with external day/night cycles. Recent data suggest that disruption of the mammalian circadian clock results in accelerated aging and increased age‐related pathologies such...

Continuous time input pipeline ADCs

Creator:: Gubbins, David Patrick
Abstract:: Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) convert analog continuous time signals into discrete time, digital format. One precondition that must be met for conventional nyquist rate ADCs is that the input signal must be suitably band-limited to an input bandwidth less than the nyquist frequency. This mandates expensive anti-alias filters which contribute to...
