Psilocybin dosing and adult neurogenesis

Psilocybin is a psychedelic compound that alters states of consciousness to allow free imagination and insightful creativity. Its ability to induce complex behavioral and psychological changes has led to its resurgence in psychedelic-enhanced psychotherapy. Despite positive clinical efficacy from a handful of trials, an optimal (or even variable) treatment paradigm has yet to be established. […]

Machine Learning for signal processing and pulse sequence design

MRI is one of the most widely used medical imaging techniques. The main challenge with MRI is its low resolution. This is why patients need to stay in the MRI machine for long scan times, sometimes for about an hour. We are developing a software solution that uses our proprietary quantum technology and AI to […]

High-efficiency supersonic binary fluid ejector Year Two

From the survey of literature (Eames et al. (1995), Chunnanond & Aphornratana (2004b), Chunnanond & Aphornratana (2004a) and others), the performance of a jet refrigeration system depends greatly on the ejector configuration (characteristics). Many researchers have shown the need to improve performance in order to make ejector-based cooling economically more attractive. It is known that […]
