The UMass Lowell Climate Change Initiative brings faculty, students, and communities together to address climate change through research, education, and developing solutions to transition to a more sustainable and resilient society.
These include impediments to organ fabrication, the limited resolution of printed features, the need for advanced bioprinting solutions to transition the technology bench to bedside, the necessity of new bioink development for rapid, safe and sustainable delivery of cells in a biomimetically organized microenvironment, and regulatory concerns to transform the technology into a product.
A straightforward solution is to transition to multivalent-ion chemistries, where Mg2+ is the most obvious candidate because of its size and mass.
The obtained formulation showed a rapid solution-to-gel transition at 35 °C.
During the solution-to-gel transition process, all of the ingredients in the system form a matrix, where the drugs can be slowly released or within which cells/stem cells can grow in a specifically controlled manner.
The resulting mixture is stirred well with a magnetic bar keeping the temperature constant at 80 °C for 24 h until one-phase solution is formed that goes through a solution-to-gel transition.
We show that microwave irradiation is a useful technique to accelerate direct arylation cross-coupling reactions, and that the thiophene phthalimide architecture can lead to face-to-face intermolecular π-stacking, resulting in pronounced blue shifts in the absorption maximum upon a solution to condensed state transition.
With such a wide range of non-technical barriers, there is no "silver bullet" solution to drive the transition to renewable energy.
We need to unleash our brainpower on all possible solutions to the transition to the post-fossil fuel energy economy.
A straightforward solution to avoid Majorana transitions involves the use of an offset magnetic [11] or electric [50] field.
