Engineered hydrogels for tracking cell signaling from the outside-in
An exciting new strategy for regenerative therapies involves the conversion of somatic cells back into an embryonic stem cell (ES)-like state, termed induced pluripotent stem cells (iPS). iPS cells have the same potential for differentiation as ES cells and hold immense promise for tissue …

Cell-Fiber Interactions: A New Route to Mechano-Biological Investigations in Developmental and Disease Biology
Cells in the body interact with a predominantly fibrous microenvironment and constantly adapt to changes in their neighboring physiochemical environment, which has implications in developmental and disease biology. A myriad of in vitro platforms including 2D flat and 3D gel substrates with and …

Lovecraftian Queerness: Weird and Queer Temporalities in <em>Lovecraft Country</em> and <em>Detransition, Baby</em>
<p>By analyzing H. P. Lovecraft’s work through the lens of queer temporality, I offer a queer perspective on Lovecraft, reading the monstrous outside in his work as a queer figure and casting the temporal conflict common to Lovecraftian horror as a conflict between dominant time and outside time. I …

Quantifying How High Tunnels Create a Microclimate For Improved Crop Growth
Farmers in the Great Basin are investing in inexpensive low-tech greenhouses, known as high tunnels (HTs) or hoop houses. This study evaluated the microclimate inside HTs, how farmers were using HTs to grow crops and how the microclimate inside HTs led to improved crop growth. The HT microclimate …
