Studying cut-resistant socks for hockey players

The authors tested the impact of various additives on biopolymer degradation.

Here the authors investigated the natural recovery of stress-induced dopamine-related gene deficits in C. elegans by measuring the expression of cat-2 (dopamine biosynthesis) and sod-2 (oxidative stress) following exposure to starvation or hydrocortisone. They found that the reversibility of sod-2 and the expression of cat-2 were highly dependent on the type and severity of the stressor, suggesting that the body's natural ability to recover from dopamine dysfunction has biological limitations.

The authors looked the ability of sound sensors to predict clogged pipes when the sound intensity data is run through a machine learning algorithm.

The authors looked at variables and their patterns and how those contribute to the properties of X-ray binaries.

Determination of Penalty Kick Success in Soccer

The authors looked at the impact of vitamin A (retinol) on growth of S. epidermidis (most abundant bacterium on the skin) and E. coli (found in the gut microbiome, but not on the skin).

The authors looked at the ability to detect heart disease before the onset of severe clinical symptoms.

The authors looked at how students performed on standardized tests when they were taught material via memorization vs. conceptual based approaches.

The authors looked at how storage temperature of potatoes can impact the sweetness of potatoes (due to the break down of the starch into simple sugars).
