Accepted Manuscripts on Science & Sustainability

Life Sciences & BiologyThe Biological Science & Technology category serves as a central platform for exploring contemporary technologies and  the complexities of living organisms and the fundamental mechanisms that drive biological systems. We emphasize high-impact research spanning molecular biology, genetics, ecology, biotechnology, and physiological systems. This research helps us document vital discoveries, ranging from microscopic cellular processes to large-scale ecosystem dynamics, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of life in our rapidly changing environment.

THE EFFECT OF BMP SIGNALING IN THE TEMPORAL DYNAMIC OF INFECTION-INDUCED LIPID MOBILIZATION IN CAENORHABDITIS ELEGANS

Author: Fiona Lin

July 30, 2025

Bacterial infections negatively affect public health. Many organisms mobilize lipids as a source of energy to resist against pathogens. One pathway, the BMP pathway, plays a role in the regulation of lipid metabolism. By understanding the use of fat in cases such as loss of appetite in infection cou...

Comprehending Developmental Prosopagnosia Using a Trained Deep Convolutional Neural Network: A Perceptual Study

Author: Eushra Rahman

July 25, 2025

Developmental prosopagnosia (DP), also known as face blindness, is a condition in which individuals have an impairment in the FFA region of their brain. This results in inability to recognize faces. Majority of the current body of literature focuses on the biological aspect of developmental prosopag...

Alternate Methods to Facilitate the Nucleophilic Attack of Alcohols in Fischer Esterification: The Application of Sulfonated Silica Gel as an Acid Catalyst and Zinc Oxide as a UV Photocatalyst

Author: Eric M. Reilly

July 22, 2025

Fischer esterification is one of the most prominent industrial methods of ester production, involving a reaction between an alcohol and carboxylic acid in the presence of a catalyst to turn the carboxylic acid into an ester. However, Fischer esterification results in large amounts of waste due to th...

The Effect of Allura red AC on the Motility and Regeneration Rate of Dugesia tigrina

Author: Christie Lauren Arce

July 21, 2025

Red 40 dye has been banned in European countries due to rising health concerns. There is evidence that Red 40, also called Allura red AC, can cause hyperactivity in humans along with negatively affecting the colon and causing Early Onset Colorectal cancer in mice. This study aimed to investigate if ...

The Neurobiology of Suicide: Claudin-5 is a Novel Biomarker of Suicide Pathogenesis

Author: Natasha Kulviwat

July 19, 2025

Every forty seconds, suicide steals a life, yet no biomarkers exist for suicide. Suicide has largely been investigated from a psychological lens, and therefore the pathogenesis remains unclear. This study investigated blood-brain barrier (BBB) claudin-5 breakdown, the most enriched BBB tight junctio...

Bistable Structures: The design and fabrication of a large-scale hygroscopic bistable sinusoidal arch structure with applications with autonomous environmental actuation

Author: Chris Zhang

July 16, 2025

Bistable structures, structures with two distinct equilibrium states achieved via buckling-like deformations, are seen throughout engineering applications in shape-morphing and energyharvesting systems. Typically actuated by mechanically induced snap-through buckling, sinusoidal arches, a unique geo...

IMPACT OF FLUCTUATIONS BETWEEN MGLUR5 AND MELATONIN IN MAJOR DEPRESSIVE DISORDER (MDD)

Author: Afnan Ali

July 11, 2025

Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a debilitative illness that severely impacts quality and duration of life, with neurologists and psychologists seeking remedies to this disease. Currently, past studies have found that metabotropic glutamate receptor subtype 5 (mGluR5) and melatonin have been impli...

An Organic, Sustainable Gel Polymer Electrolyte for Flexible Energy Storage Applications

Author: Mai Tran

July 08, 2025

Gel polymer electrolytes (GPE) have attracted the attention of researchers over the last decade. Combining the merits of solid- and liquid-state electrolytes, GPEs reduce the risk of leakage and flammability, while offering higher ion mobility and conductivity than solid electrolytes. In particular,...

The Effect of Thiolated GMO consumption on the Fecundity and Longevity of Drosophila melanogaster

Author: Kenzie Albano, Saswati Bhattacharya

July 07, 2025

Genetically modified organisms (GMOs) have made a significant impact on our lives today. Most food products we consume have been genetically modified to enhance certain characteristics. This may include genes inserted to produce proteins that repel insects or enhance nutrient production in the food....
