Selective Targeting of a Defined Subpopulation of Corticospinal Neurons Using a Novel Klhl14-Cre Mouse Line Enables Molecular and Anatomical Investigations through Development into Maturity

Julia Kaiser, Payal Patel, Aidan Raghu, James Conner et autres

The corticospinal tract (CST) facilitates skilled, precise movements, which necessitates that subcerebral projection neurons (SCPNs) establish segmentally specific connectivity with brainstem and spinal circuits. Developmental molecular delineation enables prospective identification of corticospinal neurons (CSNs) projecting to thoraco-lumbar spinal segments; however, it remains …

Application of LQG Control for Pendubot System

Duc-Anh-Quan Nguyen, Linh-Phuong Nguyen, Hoang-Anh Nguyen, Van-Huy Pham et autres

The paper focuses on the study of the Pendubot system, a classic system widely used in control research, particularly the 2-link Pendubot. This system is nonlinear with a single input and multiple outputs (SIMO) and is under-actuated. The paper addresses the challenges …

FPGA Oriented Compression of DNN Using Layer-Targeted Weights and Activations Quantization

Minh Quoc Hoang, Phong L. Nguyen, Hong Viet Tran, Hồng Quân Nguyễn et autres

In recent years, complex Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved state-of-the-art results in a wide range of real-world tasks. However, the gains in their performance lead to an increase in computations and frequent access to external memory slow down the FPGA inference …

A system for rapid eDNA detection of aquatic invasive species

Austen C. Thomas, Samantha Tank, Phong L. Nguyen, Jake Ponce et autres

Abstract Environmental DNA (eDNA) detection of aquatic invasive species using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) is a powerful tool for resource managers, but qPCR has traditionally been confined to laboratory analysis. Laboratory results often take days or weeks to be produced, limiting …

A self‐preserving, partially biodegradable eDNA filter

Austen C. Thomas, Phong L. Nguyen, Jesse Howard, Caren S. Goldberg

Abstract eDNA studies often rely on water filtration in the field and immediate sample preservation to prevent DNA degradation during sample transport. However, filter membrane transfer steps for preservation can increase risk of sample contamination and the reliance on typical single‐use filter …

Electroimmobilization as an Alternative Method to Chemical Immobilization of Larval Fish

Phong L. Nguyen, Benjamin A. Yefimov, Allison B. Coffin, Cynthia D. Cooper

Abstract Electroimmobilization is commonly used in field and hatchery settings for juvenile to adult fish; however, its use in laboratory studies is limited, specifically with larval fish. Here, we describe the use of electroimmobilization for temporary immobilization of larval fish, with Zebrafish …

Assembly of functionally antagonistic visual circuits for controlling pupil dynamics

Onkar S. Dhande, Tania A. Seabrook, Ann H. Phan, Lindsey D. Salaly et autres

The functional attributes of parallel sensory circuits are determined by the properties of the individual cell types that comprise them, and their connectivity. The mechanisms controlling the specification and establishment of parallel sensory pathways remain unclear. Here we report the non-uniform distribution …

Molecular Fingerprinting of On–Off Direction-Selective Retinal Ganglion Cells Across Species and Relevance to Primate Visual Circuits

Onkar S. Dhande, Benjamin K. Stafford, Katrin Franke, Rana N. El‐Danaf et autres

The ability to detect moving objects is an ethologically salient function. Direction-selective neurons have been identified in the retina, thalamus, and cortex of many species, but their homology has remained unclear. For instance, it is unknown whether direction-selective retinal ganglion cells (DSGCs) …

Rapid Detection and Monitoring of Flavobacterium psychrophilum in Water by Using a Handheld, Field-Portable Quantitative PCR System

Phong L. Nguyen, Ponnerassery S. Sudheesh, Austen C. Thomas, Mieke Sinnesael et autres

Abstract Advances in technology are making it easier for rapid field detection of microbes in aquaculture. Specifically, real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) analysis, which has traditionally been confined to laboratory-based protocols, is now available in a handheld, field-portable system. The feasibility of using …

Evaluation of Three Electrical Outputs in an Electro-Immobilization System to Reduce Induction Time during Routine Handling of Fish at a Hatchery

Phong L. Nguyen, Katherine H. Haman, LeeRoy Carstensen, Tori L. McKlveen et autres

Abstract Tools designed to electrically induce fish immobilization are increasingly being implemented by practitioners for safe and effective fish handling. Currently used methods for electro-immobilizing batches of fish incorporate a period of hyperactivity that serves to reduce spinal injuries in fish. However, …
