      Polymeris, G. S.; Hatzikraniotis, E.; Stefanaki, E. C.; Pavlidou, E.; Kyratsi, Theodora; Paraskevopoulos, K. M.; Kanatzidis, M. G. (Affiliation: Physics Department, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, GR- 54124, Thessaloniki, GreeceAffiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, 1678 Nicosia, CyprusAffiliation: Department of Chemistry, Northwestern University, 2145 North Sheridan Road, Evanston, IL 60208, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Physics Department, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, GR- 54124, Thessaloniki, Greece, 2013)
      The application of micro-fourier transform infrared (FT1R) mapping analysis to thermoelectric materials towards identification of doping inhomogeneities is described. Micro-FTIR, in conjunction with fitting, is used as ...

      In vivo imaging of microvasculature using optical coherence tomography 

      Vakoc, B. J.; Lanning, R. M.; Tyrrell, J. A.; Padera, T. P.; Bartlett, L. A.; Stylianopoulos, T.; Munn, L. L.; Tearney, G. J.; Fukumura, D.; Jain, R. K.; Bouma, Brett E. (Correspondence Address: Vakoc, B. J., 2010)
      In vivo imaging technologies drive the development of improved cancer therapies by revealing critical aspects of the complex pathophysiology of solid tumors in small animal models[1]. The abnormal vascular function, which ...

      Shear-induced nanometer and micrometer structural responses in nanocomposite hydrogels 

      Loizou, Elena; Porcar, L.; Schexnailder, P.; Schmidt, G.; Butler, P. (2010)
      The structural responses of a polymer-clay nanocomposite hydrogel to an imposed shear field are investigated from the nanometer to the micrometer length scales. The effects of polymer molecular weight and concentration of ...

      Solid Tumors Are Poroelastic Solids with a Chemo-mechanical Feedback on Growth 

      Ambrosi, D.; Pezzuto, S.; Riccobelli, D.; Stylianopoulos, T.; Ciarletta, P. (2017)
      The experimental evidence that a feedback exists between growth and stress in tumors poses challenging questions. First, the rheological properties (the “constitutive equations”) of aggregates of malignant cells are still ...
