The creation of multiarticulated mechanisms for use with minimally invasive surgical tools is
difficult because of fabrication, assembly, and actuation challenges on the millimeter scale of …

Force feedback during robotic surgery is critical in order to minimize potential injury to the
patient and decrease recovery time from surgical procedures. Here we describe the use of a …

The objective of this work was to determine how taxonomy benefited from the ecological
quantitative and site-based sampling methods in enchytraeids studies. Enchytraeids (small …

infections in immunocompromised patients highlights the necessity for rapid identification of …

… Because sample collection took place after the rutting season, to measure the size of the
dark ventral patch, we considered both black and brown hairs (see Appendix 2). We assumed …
