Gadolinium Endohedral Metallofullerenes for Future Magnetic Resonance Imaging Contrast Agents
(Virginia Tech, 2014-04-29)Gadolinium endohedral metallofullerenes (EMFs) have shown the potential to become next generation magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents due to their significantly improved efficiency and safety, as well as ... -
GAFA's information infrastructure distribution: Interconnection dynamics in the global North versus global South
(Wiley, 2021-12-14)We analyze public points of interconnection of Google, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple (GAFA) in the global North versus the global South to determine the degree to which their location preferences differ, if at all. We find ... -
GAIA is a Cyborg? Exploring Ecological Personhood in Horizon Zero Dawn
(Virginia Tech, 2020-03-25)Midway through the 21st century, the world was at the peak of automated military practices. One of the greatest achievements, to date, was a combat-ready robot swarm by the name of Chariot. Chariot swarms were designed to ... -
