Sexual violence at higher education institutions: prevalence, nature, and opportunities for prevention by Steele, B

“…</p> <p><strong>Method:</strong> First, I conducted a systematic review of SV prevalence studies at HEIs and meta-analysed the prevalence of SV disaggregated by gender, type of SV, and world region. Second, in collaboration with stakeholders across the University of Oxford, I developed a cross-sectional survey (the OUR SPACE survey) to measure the prevalence, nature, and context of SV at the University of Oxford. …”

Suppressed deep traps and bandgap fluctuations in Cu2CdSnS4 solar cells with ≈8% efficiency by Hadke, Shreyash, Levcenko, Sergiu, Gautam, Gopalakrishnan Sai, Hages, Charles J., Márquez, José A., Izquierdo-Roca, Victor, Carter, Emily A., Unold, Thomas, Wong, Lydia Helena

“…It is shown that these deleterious defect clusters can be suppressed by substituting Zn with Cd in a Cu-poor compositional region. The substitution of Zn with Cd also significantly reduces the bandgap fluctuations, despite the similarity in the formation energy of the CuZn+ZnCu and CuCd+CdCu antisites. …”

Heterogeneity within colorectal cancer cell lines and epigenetic regulation of CD24 by Ibn Ayub, M

“…Bisulfite (BS) modification of DNA from the LS174T clones and CD24 differentially expressing CRC cell lines (such as CD24- cell lines: CC20, RKO vs CD24+ cell lines: DLD1, NCIH716) followed by Sanger sequencing showed that direct methylation of seven CpG positions in the CD24 promoter region Chr6:106975560-106975834 is strongly correlated with the expression of CD24. …”

Detection and characterisation of a sixth Candida auris clade in Singapore: a genomic and phenotypic study by Suphavilai, Chayaporn, Ko, Karrie Kwan Ki, Lim, Kar Mun, Tan, Mei Gie, Boonsimma, Patipan, Chu, Joash Jun Keat, Goh, Sui Sin, Rajandran, Prevena, Lee, Lai Chee, Tan, Kwee Yuen, Bushra Binte Shaik Ismail, Aung, May Kyawt, Yang, Yong, Sim, Jean Xiang Ying, Venkatachalam, Indumathi, Cherng, Benjamin Pei Zhi, Spruijtenburg, Bram, Chan, Kian Sing, Oon, Lynette Lin Ean, Tan, Ai Ling, Tan, Yen Ee, Wijaya, Limin, Tan, Ban Hock, Ling, Moi Lin, Koh, Tse Hsien, Meis, Jacques F., Tsui, Clement Kin Ming, Nagarajan, Niranjan

“…Interpretation: The discovery of a new C auris clade in Singapore and Bangladesh in the Indomalayan zone, showing a close relationship to clade IV members most commonly found in South America, highlights the unknown genetic diversity and origin of C auris, particularly in under-resourced regions. Active surveillance in clinical settings, along with effective sequencing strategies and downstream analysis, will be essential in the identification of novel strains, tracking of transmission, and containment of adverse clinical effects of C auris infections.…”
