Native and non-native language contexts differently modulate mood-driven electrodermal activity
Published in Scientific Reports
Bilingual speakers have been consistently observed to experience reduced emotional sensitivity to their non-native (L2) relative to native (L1) language, particularly to the negatively-valenced L2 content. Yet, little is known about how the L1 and L2 contexts physiologically influence bilinguals' affective states, such as moods. Here, we show that ...
Eye problems and musculoskeletal pain in Pokémon Go players
Published in Scientific Reports
Individuals benefit from Pokémon Go (PG) gaming because this mobile augmented reality geolocation video game provides an attractive opportunity to increase physical activity outdoors and socialize. However, based on gaming and electronic media studies, intense involvement with PG is likely related to adverse phenomena, such as arm pain or eye-relat...
Single-cell transcriptomics defines an improved, validated monoculture protocol for differentiation of human iPSC to mic...
Published in Scientific Reports
There is increasing genetic evidence for the role of microglia in neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and motor neuron disease. Therefore, there is a need to generate authentic in vitro models to study human microglial physiology. Various methods have been developed using human induced Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSC) to ge...
Outcomes of heart transplantation in cardiac amyloidosis: an updated systematic review.
Published in Heart failure reviews
Cardiac amyloidosis is one of the most common infiltrative cardiomyopathies that is characterized by the extracellular deposition of misfolded fibrillar protein. Several studies have previously found that patients with amyloid in the past have performed poorly after heart transplantation. Recent advancements in treatments have been made that have s...
Large waves and navigation hazards of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea.
Published in Scientific Reports
We present a statistical analysis of deep-water buoy measurements of large waves generated during two major storms of the Eastern Mediterranean in 2017 and 2018, respectively. The largest waves observed do display similar characteristics to those of the Draupner, Andrea, and El Faro rogue waves in that second order bound nonlinearities enhance the ...

Hydrogen trapping and embrittlement in high-strength Al alloys
Published in Nature
Ever more stringent regulations on greenhouse gas emissions from transportation motivate efforts to revisit materials used for vehicles 1. High-strength aluminium alloys often used in aircrafts could help reduce the weight of automobiles, but are susceptible to environmental degradation 2,3. Hydrogen 'embrittlement' is often indicated as the main c...
