Integrative multi-platform approach to identify biomarkers of diabetes-associated breast cancer progression
Breast cancer (BrC) is the leading cause of cancer-related death among women worldwide, including in India. Major risk factors for BrC include genetic predisposition, mutations in BRCA genes, post-menopausal hormonal ... -
New Dimension in Senescence: Unraveling Cellular Senescence in Three-Dimensional Scaffolds
Aging is a ubiquitous process that results in the progressive and irreversible loss of function. It is induced by accumulating damage caused by a variety of stressors, both internal and external. Although the advancement ... -
Liquid jet injection into a supersonic crossflow: Influence of jet orifice shape on penetration and atomization
Liquid jet injection into supersonic crossflow is one of the conceptually simple ways of fuel atomization in SCRAMJET engines. The success of these engines demands the efficient mixing of incoming supersonic air and the ... -
Evaluating routine biochemical parameters for breast cancer detection in Indian women: A machine learning approach
Breast cancer stands as the leading cancer type among Indian women, with a mortality rate that surpasses that of nations such as the USA, Australia, and the UK. The higher mortality rate is largely explained by a lack of ... -
Development of Novel Deep Learning Models with Improved Generalizability for Medical Image Analysis
Medical imaging is a process of visualization of disease/tissue in a non-invasive manner. Several imaging techniques like computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), optical coherence tomography (OCT), and ... -
