The secret geographer: thinking aloud on legal engagements in scholar-activism by Brickell, K, Jeffrey, A, McConnell, F, Ahearn, A, Calkin, S, Klosterkamp, S

“…Activism tends to be understood as an intentional, planned-for, and public endeavour, yet the roundtable tells a more nuanced story. Honing in on the legal reveals experiences of scholar-activism that are also accidental, unexpected, and private, but which, we argue should equally ‘count’ and be ‘counted’ as examples of meaningful geographical engagement with social justice movements and endeavours. …”

‘Liege lady’: Queen Victoria’s political medievalism by Broome Saunders, C

“…It will explore the political implications of this consistent use of the language, settings, conventions and constrictions of nineteenth-century medievalism throughout Victoria’s reign: from the powerful impotence of the girl-queen’s accession speech, as explored in Elizabeth Barrett Browning’s contemporary poetry; the matron-queen’s casting of her consort as the ideal English knight in portraiture and sculpture, and most obviously in elegiac work after his death. …”

Changes in gene expression in human skeletal stem cells transduced with constitutively active Gsα correlates with hallmark histopathological changes seen in fibrous dysplastic bone... by Raimondo, Domenico, Remoli, Cristina, Astrologo, Letizia, Burla, Romina, La Torre, Mattia, Vernì, Fiammetta, Tagliafico, Enrico, Corsi, Alessandro, Del Giudice, Simona, Persichetti, Agnese, Giannicola, Giuseppe, Robey, Pamela G., Riminucci, Mara, Saggio, Isabella

“…We also observed high levels of CEBPs (CCAAT-Enhancer Binding Proteins) in both data sets, factors related to browning of white fat. This is the first analysis of the reaction of human skeletal stem/progenitor cells to the introduction of the FD mutation and we believe it provides a useful background for further studies on the molecular basis of the disease and for the identification of novel potential therapeutic targets.…”

Effect of auxins on growth enhancement of cell suspension culture of Tongkat Ali Hitam (Polyalthia bullata) by Nurul Farhana Farezol, Munirah Adibah Kamarul Zaman, Azzreena Mohamad Azzeme

“…Although the ½ MSO yielded the highest biomass, the cell suspension cultures supplemented with 30 μM NAA showed promising results, achieving higher biomass compared to other auxin treatments and exhibiting a light yellowish-brown cell. This suggests that 30 μM NAA is a more efficient auxin utilization in reducing the occurrence of dark brown cells. …”
