Physics-Guided Gaussian Process Mapping of Strong-Gradient Radiation Fields from Mobile Robot Surveys: The Role of Sampling Geometry

Radiation fields around collimated or shielded sources exhibit strong gradients whose accurate delineation is critical for worker protection and emergency response. Mobile robots can survey such fields, but they sample sparsely and irregularly along their trajectories, and it rem...

The intratumoral microbiome as an emerging hub in cancer pathogenesis and precision oncology

Over the past decade, the number of microbial communities identified within tumors has increased by 400%. Notably, the intratumoral microbiome, which includes bacteria, fungi, viruses, and other microorganisms within tumor tissues, was first discovered more than a century ago. Ba...
