A new self-adjustable glaucoma valve

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Stéphane Bigler, Julien Maxime Gerber, Soroush Rafiei

Introduction: Glaucoma, the leading cause of irreversible blindness globally, affects more than 70 million people across the world. When initial treatments prove ineffective, especially for cases with high intraocular pressure (IOP), the preferred approach ...

Searching for Strong Gravitational Lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Cameron Alexander Campbell Lemon

Strong gravitational lenses provide unique laboratories for cosmological and astrophysical investigations, but they must first be discovered - a task that can be met with significant contamination by other astrophysical objects and asterisms. Here we revie ...

The impact of human expert visual inspection on the discovery of strong gravitational lenses

Frédéric Courbin, Hung-Hsu Chan, Martin Raoul Robert Millon, Benjamin Yvan Alexandre Clement, Karina Alexandra Rojas Olate, Elodie Marie Charlène Savary, Eric Gérard Guy Paic, Rémy Elie Joseph

We investigate the ability of human 'expert' classifiers to identify strong gravitational lens candidates in Dark Energy Survey like imaging. We recruited a total of 55 people that completed more than 25 per cent of the project. During the classification t ...

In situ detection of multitarget impurities on contact lens by electrochemical scanning probe

Fang Liu, Tzu-En Lin, Yingdi Zhu

Identifying multitarget impurities on contact lenses is challenging because traditional methods such as polymerase chain reaction cannot be used on the unknown target. Other sampling methods often require expensive antibodies or dyes. Therefore, this resea ...
