<h2 class="jove_title"><a href="https://www.jove.com/video/56220">A Novel Method for Involving Women of Color at High Risk for Preterm Birth in Research Priority Setting</a></h2>Linda S. Franck1,2, Monica R. McLemore1,2, Norlissa Cooper1, Baylee De Castro3, Anastasia Y. Gordon4, Schyneida Williams5, Shanell Williams2, Larry Rand2,31<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/CA-California/23335-University-of-California,-San-Francisco'>School of Nursing, University of California, San Francisco</a>, 2<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/CA-California/23335-University-of-California,-San-Francisco'>UCSF California Preterm Birth Initiative, University of California, San Francisco</a>, 3<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/CA-California/23335-University-of-California,-San-Francisco'>School of Medicine, University of California, San Francisco</a>, 4<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/CA-California/26087-San-Francisco-Black-Infant-Health-Program'>San Francisco Black Infant Health Program</a>, 5<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/CA-California/26088-Homeless-Prenatal-Program'>Homeless Prenatal Program, San Francisco, CA</a>This manuscript describes the Research Prioritization by Affected Communities (RPAC) protocol and findings from its use with women at risk for preterm birth. Using the protocol, women identified and prioritized their unanswered questions about pregnancy, birth and neonatal care aimed at influencing research priority setting by funders and researchers.<h2 class="jove_title"><a href="https://www.jove.com/video/56733">Frame-by-Frame Video Analysis of Idiosyncratic Reach-to-Grasp Movements in Humans</a></h2>Jenni M. Karl1, Jessica R. Kuntz2, Layne A. Lenhart2, Ian Q. Whishaw21<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/CA-Canada/26427-Thompson-Rivers-University'>Department of Psychology, Thompson Rivers University</a>, 2<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/CA-Canada/24784-University-of-Lethbridge'>Department of Neuroscience, University of Lethbridge</a>This protocol describes how to use frame-by-frame video analysis to quantify idiosyncratic reach-to-grasp movements in humans. A comparative analysis of reaching in sighted versus unsighted healthy adults is used to demonstrate the technique, but the method can also be applied to the study of developmental and clinical populations.<h2 class="jove_title"><a href="https://www.jove.com/video/56760">Synthesis of Functionalized 10-nm Polymer-coated Gold Particles for Endothelium Targeting and Drug Delivery</a></h2>Ming J. Cheng1, Priya Prabakaran1, Rajiv Kumar2,3, Srinivas Sridhar1,2,3, Eno E. Ebong1,4,51<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/MA-Massachusetts/3887-Northeastern-University'>Department of Chemical Engineering, Northeastern University</a>, 2<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/MA-Massachusetts/3887-Northeastern-University'>Nanomedicine Science and Technology Center, Northeastern University</a>, 3<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/MA-Massachusetts/3887-Northeastern-University'>Department of Physics, Northeastern University</a>, 4<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/MA-Massachusetts/3887-Northeastern-University'>Departments of Bioengineering, Northeastern University</a>, 5<a href='/institutions/NA-North-America/US-United-States/NY-New-York/26332-Albert-Einstein-College-of-Medicine'>Department of Neuroscience, Albert Einstein College of Medicine</a>We describe a method of synthesizing biocompatible 10-nm gold nanoparticles, functionalized by coating poly-ethylene glycol onto the surface. These particles can be used in vitro and in vivo for delivering therapeutics to nanoscale cellular and extracellular spaces that are difficult to access with conventional nanoparticle sizes.<h2 class="jove_title"><a href="https://www.jove.com/video/57324">Preparation, Purification, and Use of Fatty Acid-containing Liposomes</a></h2>Lin Jin*1,2, Aaron E.

Here we describe techniques for the preparation, purification, and use of liposomes comprised in part or whole of these amphiphiles.

jove monthly highlights: january 2018

Here&#39;s a look at what is featured in the January 2018 issue of <a href="https://www.jove.com/">JoVE</a>: The World&#39;s Premier Video Journal.
This month, JoVE <a href="https://www.jove.com/journal/behavior">Behavior</a> really grabs our attention with a <a href="https://www.jove.com/video/56733/frame-frame-video-analysis-idiosyncratic-reach-to-grasp-movements">novel protocol</a> to analyze reaching and grasping movements. Here, our authors used frame-by-frame video to study healthy adult subjects as they reach for a donut hole on a pedestal. This technique allows researchers to study these movements without specialized or expensive equipment.
From studying hands to extending one to communities in need, our <a href="https://www.jove.com/video/56220/a-novel-method-for-involving-women-color-at-high-risk-for-preterm">authors</a> in JoVE <a href="https://www.jove.com/journal/behavior">Behavior</a> describe a strategy to directly engage women at high socio-demographic risk for preterm birth. The Research Prioritization by Affected Communities protocol represents big step forward in the involvement of patients and the public in setting research priorities.
Next, as athletes across the globe prepare to compete for Olympic gold, JoVE <a href="https://www.jove.com/journal/bioengineering">Bioengineering</a> features a method to synthesize <a href="https://www.jove.com/video/56760/synthesis-functionalized-10-nm-polymer-coated-gold-particles-for">gold nanoparticles</a> for use in targeted drug delivery. After synthesis and purification, these fluorescent nanoparticles can be visualized both in vitro and in vivo.
Finally, JoVE <a href="https://www.jove.com/journal/bioengineering">Bioengineering</a> was honored to feature the <a href="https://www.jove.com/video/57324/preparation-purification-and-use-of-fatty-acid-containing-liposomes">work</a> of a Nobel laureate and colleagues, who share their protocol to prepare and purify liposomes. Using these liposomes, researchers can answer key questions related to synthetic biology and the origin of life.
