Coevolution of male and female genital morphology in waterfowl. by Patricia L R Brennan, Richard O Prum, Kevin G McCracken, Michael D Sorenson, Robert E Wilson, Tim R Birkhead

“…This variation comprises two anatomical novelties: (i) dead end sacs, and (ii) clockwise coils. These vaginal structures appear to function to exclude the intromission of the counter-clockwise spiralling male phallus without female cooperation. …”

Chronochemistry in neurodegeneration by Annalisa ePastore, Salvatore eAdinolfi

“…We show how the fibrillar aggregates observed in Alzheimer’s disease were first denied any interest, then to assume a central focus, and to finally recess to be considered the dead-end point of the aggregation pathway. This current view is that the soluble aggregates formed along the aggregation pathway rather than the mature amyliod fibre are the causes of disease, Similarly, we illustrate how the identification of causes and effects have been important in the study of Friedreich’s ataxia. …”

The Story So Far: How Embodied Cognition Advances Our Understanding of Meaning-Making by Cedric Galetzka

“…Traditional theories on cognition that emphasize abstract symbol manipulations often face a dead end: The symbol grounding problem. The embodiment idea tries to overcome this barrier by assuming that the mind is grounded in sensorimotor experiences. …”

Development and Testing of a Fully Adaptable Membrane Bioreactor Fouling Model for a Sidestream Configuration System by Parneet Paul

“…A dead-end filtration model that includes the three main fouling mechanisms mentioned in Hermia (i.e., cake build-up, complete pore blocking, and pore constriction) and that was based on a constant trans-membrane pressure (TMP) operation was extensively modified so it could be used for a sidestream configuration membrane bioreactor (MBR) situation. …”

Cre-lox neurogenetics: 20 years of versatile applications in brain research and counting... by Joe Z Tsien

“…When I started out to explore the Cre-loxP recombination for brain research in early 1990s, it was written off as a dead-end project by a young fool. Yet over the past 20 years, Cre-lox recombination-mediated neurogenetics has emerged as one of the most powerful and versatile technology platforms for cell-specific gene knockouts, transgenic overexpression, Brainbow imaging, neural pathway tracing with retrovirus and CLARITY, chemical genetics, and optogenetics. …”

Why is agricultural policy not more environmentally ambitious? Comparing failed attempts in Switzerland by Stefan Mann, Antonia Kaiser

“…It is concluded that the strategy of providing incentives for mere extensification has reached a dead end. New strategies to tackle food consumption patterns appear to be more promising.…”

Strategic support to students' competency development in the mathematical modelling process: A qualitative study by Rina Durandt, Geoffrey Lautenbach

“…Students often experience modelling as difficult, and obstructions in the modelling process can lead to a dead end. Literature reports confirm that the modelling task is central in the modelling experience and a carefully planned task, aligned with a suitable activity sheet, can be used as a scaffold in learning mathematical modelling. …”

Elaborate expressions in Dai Lue by Hanna, William J.

“…Listing of elaborate expressions based on their canonical structure has proved to be a dead end typologically. An exploration of these seven formation strategies in Southeast Asian languages holds promise for new insights into their morphology.…”

Investigation of membrane fouling by soluble microbial product (smp) using dextran as surrogate by Chia, Yan Shan.

“…In this report, ultrafiltration (UF), nanofiltration (NF 270), nanofiltration with microfiltration (NFMF) membranes were used to investigate the fouling effect of dextrans on dead-end filtration of different media. Dextrans with average molecular weight (MW) of 10K, 100~200K and 200~300K were used to simulate polysaccharides in soluble microbial products (SMP). …”

Undialectical conclusions by Morgan, B, Morgan, Ben

“…If Adorno is not logically forced to adopt an aporetic position, the question arises why a philosopher so gifted should manoeuvre himself into a theoretical dead-end. Habermas's answer to this, in the essay on <em>Dialektik der Aufklärung</em> included in <em>Der philosophische Diskurs der Moderne</em>, is that Adorno illicitly privileges one of the three distinct logics of modernity, inappropriately judging cognitive and moral discourses by aesthetic criteria. …”
