Optimization of solubility of corannulene polymers via ring opening metathesis polymerization by Gunasegaran, Kevitrra

“…The PDI of the copolymer produced was characterized using GPC whereas its solubility was visually assessed. Based on the findings, it can be deduced that corannulene- undecane-substituted norbornene copolymer has the highest solubility at 1:9 via G3-catalyzed block polymerization, whereby the polymerization process only proceeds when the corannulene monomer is blocked first. …”

Vibratory finishing on SLM-printed hip stem implant by Goh, Joo Hao

“…Hashimoto’s model will also be used in the course of the report to further evaluate the findings. It is further discovered that only certain surfaces of the built samples are able to be finished to required standards for use as hip stem implants, however this problem can be mitigated whilst designing of the hip stem implant for the patient.…”

Reimagining the Singaporean dream : the rise of entrepreneurial pursuits amongst young adults by Chiang, Alicia Chor Hong, Ong, Chu Wen

“…This paper positions ‘Ideology’ as a key mechanism in influencing the pursuit of entrepreneurship in Singapore given its power to influence its desirability, and the findings suggest that social environment for one to start a business venture in Singapore is not as conducive as it seems at face value given the dynamics of ‘ideological state apparatuses’ at play.…”

State and faith: the supply-side theory of religion and the case of Turkey by Gurses, Mehmet, Fox, Jonathan, Öztürk, Ahmet Erdi

“…We argue this is because hegemonic religious policies may create crosscutting effects which both increase and decrease religiosity. The findings also have political implications that are undertheorized in the supply-side literature.…”

As firm as their foundations: creating transferable adversarial examples across downstream tasks with CLIP by Hu, A, Gu, J, Pinto, F, Kamnitsas, K, Torr, PHS

“…Solely based on open-sourced CLIP vision encoders, this method can produce highly effective adversaries that simultaneously fool more than 20 downstream models spanning 4 common vision-language tasks (semantic segmentation, object detection, image captioning and visual question-answering). Our findings highlight the concerning safety risks introduced by the extensive usage of publicly available foundational models in the development of downstream systems, calling for extra caution in these scenarios.…”

The α-globin super-enhancer acts in an orientation-dependent manner by Kassouf, MT, Francis, HS, Gosden, M, Suciu, MC, Downes, DJ, Harrold, C, Larke, M, Oudelaar, M, Cornell, L, Blayney, J, Telenius, J, Xella, B, Shen, Y, Sousos, N, Sharpe, JA, Sloane-Stanley, J, Smith, AJH, Babbs, C, Hughes, JR, Higgs, DR

“…When the SE is inverted within its normal chromosomal context, expression of its normal targets, the α-globin genes, is severely reduced and the normally silent genes lying upstream of the α-globin locus are upregulated. These findings add to our understanding of enhancer-promoter specificity that precisely activate transcription.…”

Urban trust in Kenya and Tanzania: Cooperation in the provision of public goods by Burbidge, D

“…In Kisumu, in contrast, with participants reflective of the dominant Luo ethnicity, the lack of state provision of public services has seen a feeble and individualistic response. The findings demonstrate how ethnic distribution matters less for public goods provision than commitments amongst citizens themselves and between citizens and local authorities.…”
