Geospatial indicators of bikeability index as cyclefriendly city design: a systematic review by Alfredo Leopoldo Enrique Messenger Valenzuela, Adalberto Aparecido dos Santos Lopes, Pablo Antônio Bertasso de Araujo, Marcelo Dutra Della Justina, Gabriel Claudino Budal Arins, Cassiano Ricardo Rech

“…The results indicate that the most usual indicators relate to infrastructure – existence and width of bike lanes – destination, slope, speed limit, and connectivity and intersections. The creation and maintenance of bicycle-friendly environments could consider the implementation of more infrastructure on flat and connected streets with changes in speed limits in neighborhoods, especially in regions with low density of intersections, to decrease accidents and increase cyclists’ perception of safety. …”

High-throughput fluorescence lifetime imaging flow cytometry by Hiroshi Kanno, Kotaro Hiramatsu, Hideharu Mikami, Atsushi Nakayashiki, Shota Yamashita, Arata Nagai, Kohki Okabe, Fan Li, Fei Yin, Keita Tominaga, Omer Faruk Bicer, Ryohei Noma, Bahareh Kiani, Olga Efa, Martin Büscher, Tetsuichi Wazawa, Masahiro Sonoshita, Hirofumi Shintaku, Takeharu Nagai, Sigurd Braun, Jessica P. Houston, Sherif Rashad, Kuniyasu Niizuma, Keisuke Goda

“…While fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) bypasses this challenge as fluorescence lifetime remains unaffected by such fluctuations, the full integration of FLIM into flow cytometry has yet to be demonstrated due to speed limitations. Here we overcome the speed limitations in FLIM, thereby enabling high-throughput FLIM flow cytometry at a high rate of over 10,000 cells per second. …”
