R7 Photoreceptor Specification in the Developing Drosophila Eye: The Role of the Transcription Factor Deadpan. by Yannis Emmanuel Mavromatakis, Andrew Tomlinson

“…Here we find that the transcription factor Deadpan (Dpn) is also required; it is needed to silence ttk transcription, and only when Ttk protein degradation and transcriptional silencing occur together is the photoreceptor fate robustly achieved. …”

Self-Enactment or Self-Disclosure: A Search for Autobiographical References in the Lyrics of Bob Dylan by Daniela Doboș

“…The paper sets out to identify autobiographical influences in Dylan’s lyrics, which span five decades, down to the current “mix of inscrutability, flashed teeth, existential angst and deep sorrow, deadpan humour and dead-on breakdowns”, as a perfectly satisfactory coda to a remarkable half-century of music making. …”

Drosophila Mcm10 is required for DNA replication and differentiation in the compound eye. by Nicole Vo, Ayano Taga, Yasuhiro Inaba, Hideki Yoshida, Sue Cotterill, Masamitsu Yamaguchi

“…Surprisingly, when we used deadpan-lacZ and klingon-lacZ enhancer trap lines to monitor the photoreceptor cells in eye discs, knockdown of dMcm10 by the GMR-GAL4 driver reduced the signals of R7 photoreceptor cells. …”

Cormac McCarthy’s The Road : Rewriting the Myth of the American West by Aitor Ibarrola-Armendariz

“…By comparing The Road to some of his earlier fiction, the article attempts to establish where those elements of discontinuity become most apparent. In spite of his deadpan naturalism and rather laconic language use, the author manages to keep his readers on their toes thanks to the novel’s much accomplished suspense concerning the fate of the two protagonists. …”

Nucleolar stress in Drosophila neuroblasts, a model for human ribosomopathies by Sonu Shrestha Baral, Molly E. Lieux, Patrick J. DiMario

“…While the majority of larval neuroblasts arrested development, the mushroom body (MB) neuroblasts continued to proliferate as shown by their maintenance of deadpan, a neuroblast-specific transcription factor, and by their continued EdU incorporation. …”

Postural Variability in Piano Performance by Grace K. Wong, Gilles Comeau, Donald Russell, Veronika Huta

“…The tasks they were required to perform at each session were quiet sitting, raising their hands on and off the keyboard, playing an ascending and descending scale, sight reading, and playing a piece in three expressive conditions (i.e., deadpan, projected, exaggerated). The following postural angles were calculated based on motion capture data collected during the performance of these tasks: craniovertebral angle, head tilt, head-neck-trunk angle, trunk angle, thoracic angle, thoracolumbar angle, and lumbar angle. …”

Transcription factor NF-Y is involved in differentiation of R7 photoreceptor cell in Drosophila by Yasuhide Yoshioka, Luong Linh Ly, Masamitsu Yamaguchi

“…Knockdown of Drosophila NF-YA (dNF-YA) in eye discs with GMR-GAL4 and UAS-dNF-YAIR resulted in a rough eye phenotype and monitoring of differentiation of photoreceptor cells by LacZ expression in seven up-LacZ and deadpan-lacZ enhancer trap lines revealed associated loss of R7 photoreceptor signals. …”

Relationships Between Audio and Movement Features, and Perceived Emotions in Musical Performance by Marc R. Thompson, Juan Ignacio Mendoza, Geoff Luck, Jonna K. Vuoskoski

“…The musicians were tasked with performing the pieces while invoking different expressive intentions: sad, happy, angry, and as a control, deadpan. To examine how different expressive intentions influenced performance behavior, the musicians’ body movements were tracked using optical motion capture and rendered into point-light animations. …”
