Early Neoarchean geodynamic regime in the North China Craton: constraints from 2.7 Ga granitoids in the southern Jilin terrane by Liu, J, Zhang, H, Palin, RM, Liu, Z, Zhang, J, Cheng, C, Liu, X, Zhao, C

“…Combined with previous studies, we suggest that the North China Craton underwent significant crustal growth during the early Neoarchean, which was likely attributed to the synergistic effects of waning mantle plume activity and the coeval onset of plate tectonics.…”

Belgrave's quest for moral order in Bahrain, 1926-1957 by Fakhro, E

“…It shows how colonial officials responsible for exercising authority over Bahrain viewed these trends with alarm, as likely to spur a broader process of social decline, and ultimately bring about challenges to Britain’s political legitimacy in Bahrain.…”

Perceptions of a Buruli ulcer controlled human infection model: How, who, and why? by Muhi, S, Schmidt, S, Marshall, JL, O’Brien, DP, Johnson, PDR, McCarthy, JS, Jamrozik, E, Osowicki, J, Stinear, TP

“…An M. ulcerans controlled human infection model (MuCHIM) is likely to accelerate our understanding of this otherwise neglected disease, and may be an efficient platform for testing vaccines and other interventions. …”

Controls on present-day and future rainfall over southern Africa in coupled climate models by Munday, C

“…<p>Global climate change will likely alter rainfall at a regional scale. This is a particular concern in southern Africa, where rainfall is central to socioeconomic wellbeing and where we do not understand the full complexity of the climate system. …”

The molecular pathogenesis of FUS mutations in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis using in vivo and in vitro models by Kent, L

“…</p> <p>This work suggests that mutations in <em>FUS</em> are likely to affect motor neurons even when expressed at very low levels. …”

Prediction of stable perovskite quantum dots (QDs) using machine learning (ML) algorithms by Cheong, Ivan

“…We extracted a portion from the database, containing factors contributing to the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), adjusted the sample data points for a better training of machine learning models through data cleaning, Box-Cox transformations and splitting into training or testing sets. …”

Low magnetic field exposure alters prostate cancer cell properties by Lange, Sigrun, Inal, Jameel, Kraev, Igor, Dart, Dafydd Alwyn, Uysal-Onganer, Pinar

“…In the normal PNT2 cells, less EV protein cargo was observed following LMF exposure compared with cells not exposed to LMF, and fewer associated functional enrichment pathways were identified. This pointed to some differences in various cellular functions, ageing, defence responses, oxidative stress, and disease phenotypes, including respiratory, digestive, immune, and developmental pathways. …”

Student teachers learning to use Assessment for Learning in schools by Tan Chia Chun, D

“…The attention to purposes of tool use in the study was also informed by Hedegaard's (2012, 2014) work on motives in institutional practices, the activities in the practices and the actions taken by student teachers. This approach pointed to how the institutional motives and demands embedded in school practices influenced their learning. …”

Attack strategies in birds of prey by Brighton, C

“…This amounts to a pure pursuit course, meaning the bird maintains a heading angle of zero at all times (its velocity vector points at the target). Peregrine falcons were found to use a variety of values of <em>N</em> resulting in a quicker path to interception.…”

Unexpected anthropogenic emission decreases explain recent atmospheric mercury concentration declines by Feinberg, Aryeh, Selin, Noelle E., Braban, Christine F., Chang, Kai-Lan, Custódio, Danilo, Jaffe, Daniel A., Kyllönen, Katriina, Landis, Matthew S., Leeson, Sarah R., Luke, Winston, Molepo, Koketso M., Murovec, Marijana, Nerentorp Mastromonaco, Michelle G., Aspmo Pfaffhuber, Katrine, Rüdiger, Julian, Sheu, Guey-Rong, St. Louis, Vincent L.
