Electrophysiological characterization of sleep/wake, activity and the response to caffeine in adult cynomolgus macaques
We sought to define basal sleep characteristics, sleep/wake architecture and electroencephalographic activity in a diurnal non-human primate (NHP) to evaluate the utility of this species for pharmacological manipulation of the…

Modular Antigen-Specific T-cell Biofactories for Calibrated In Vivo Synthesis of Engineered Proteins
An artificial cell-signaling pathway is developed that capitalizes on the T-cell’s innate extravasation ability and transforms it into a vector for synthesizing calibrated amounts of engineered proteins in vivo.
