Wearable AI for Total Communication Support

King’s College London

Department of Informatics

Communication is essential for connecting with loved ones, participating in communities, and engaging in work and hobbies. Effective communication involves both verbal (speaking, writing) and non-verbal (gestures, tone of voice) elements — together often referred to as total communication. Read more

How can DNA condensate despite its negative charge? Implications in genome regulation, antibiotic resistance and gene therapy

University of York

School of Physics, Engineering and Technology

Research Group: Physics of Life

DNA molecules, being highly negatively charged, naturally repel each other. However, in the presence of multivalent ions or specific proteins, they can overcome this repulsion and condense into compact structures. Read more
