    Dynamics of localized waves in one-dimensional random potentials : statistical theory of the coherent forward scattering peak by Lee, Kean Loon, Miniatura, Christian, Grémaud, Benoît

    Published 2014
    “…This is in perfect agreement with recent findings based on the nonlinear sigma model. In the stationary regime, the width of the CFS peak in momentum space is inversely proportional to the localization length, reflecting the exponential decay of the eigenfunctions in real space, while its height is exactly twice the background, reflecting the Poisson statistical properties of the eigenfunctions. …”

    Consistent effects of biodiversity loss on multifunctionality across contrasting ecosystems by Fanin, Nicolas, Gundale, Michael J., Farrell, Mark, Ciobanu, Marcel, Baldock, Jeff A., Nilsson, Marie-Charlotte, Kardol, Paul, Wardle, David A.

    Published 2019
    “…However, the context-dependency of biodiversity effects also worked in opposing directions for different individual functions, meaning that similar multifunctionality values across contrasting ecosystems could potentially mask important differences in the effects of biodiversity on functioning among ecosystems. Our findings highlight that an understanding of the relative contribution of species or functional groups to individual ecosystem functions among contrasting ecosystems and their interactions (that is, complementarity versus competition) is critical for guiding management efforts aimed at maintaining ecosystem multifunctionality and the delivery of multiple ecosystem services.…”

    Published 2020
    “…The identification of small-molecule inhibitors of the cytochrome bcc-aa3 under numerous experimental conditions reflects the essentiality of the pathway for the optimum growth of M. tuberculosis. Recent findings on the biology of the cytochrome bcc-aa3 as well as the report of the first high-resolution structure of a mycobacterial cytochrome bcc-aa3 complex will help in the characterization and further development of potent inhibitors. …”

    Atomic-scale mechanisms of defect- and light-induced oxidation and degradation of InSe by Kistanov, Andrey A., Cai, Yongqing, Zhou, Kun, Dmitriev, Sergey V., Zhang, Yong-Wei

    Published 2020
    “…Moreover, under ambient conditions, the splitting of O2 enables the formation of substitutional (apical) oxygen atomic species, which further cause the trapping and subsequent rapid splitting of H2O molecules and ultimately the formation of hydroxyl groups. Our findings uncover the causes and underlying mechanisms of InSe surface degradation via defect-photo-promoted oxidations. …”

    Nanoplasmonic ruler for measuring separation distance between supported lipid bilayers and oxide surfaces by Abdul Rahim Ferhan, Spackova, Barbora, Jackman, Joshua A., Ma, Gamaliel J., Sut, Tun Naw, Homola, Jiri, Cho, Nam-Joon

    Published 2020
    “…The results indicate that there is a larger separation distance between SLBs and titania surfaces than silica surfaces, and the trend was consistent across three tested lipid compositions. We discuss these findings within the context of the interfacial forces underpinning bilayer–substrate interactions, and the nanoplasmonic ruler strategy provides the first direct experimental evidence comparing SLB separation distances on titania and silica surfaces.…”

    Motivation to lead as mediator of relations between the dark triad, big five, and leadership intention by Kennedy, Jeffrey C., Chan, Kim Yin, Ho, Ringo Moon-Ho, Uy, Marilyn A., Chernyshenko, Oleksander S.

    Published 2021
    “…Narcissism explains variance in leadership intentions over and above that explained by extraversion; this contrasts with the studies of leader emergence, where the effect of narcissism disappears once extraversion is controlled. Overall, our findings validate the three-factor conceptualization of motivation to lead and illuminate the roles of both bright and dark personality factors in understanding individual desire to attain leadership roles.…”

    Potential ago2/miR-3068-5p cascades in the nucleus accumbens contribute to methamphetamine-induced locomotor sensitization of mice by Liu, Dan, Liang, Min, Zhu, Li, Zhou, Ting-Ting, Wang, Yu, Wang, Rui, Wu, Fei-Fei, Goh, Eyleen Lay Keow, Chen, Teng

    Published 2022
    “…Knocking down miR-3068-5p, serving as an Ago2-dependent miRNA, strengthened the METH sensitization responses in mice. These findings demonstrated that dysregulated Ago2 in neurons in the NAc is capable of regulating METH sensitization and suggested a potential role of Ago2-dependent miR-3068-5p in METH sensitization.…”

    Transformative transmediation: eliciting student self-evaluation of academic writing through the video essay assignment by Frattarola, Angela, Ahn, Hyejeong, Dixon, Ian

    Published 2025
    “…Specifically, we found that 1) transmediation enabled students to self-evaluate their writing as they repeatedly listened to their voiceovers, found concrete visuals to illustrate their ideas, and edited their work to fit the concise video format; 2) students broke with habitual, less useful revision practices as they were freed from the conventional and grammatical concerns of written academic text and narrated their arguments colloquially in their voiceovers; 3) students exhibited an improved awareness of audience and medium; and 4) students were more enthusiastic with the course due to the novelty of the multimodal assignment. These findings suggest that including a video essay assignment during the drafting process can serve as an effective tool in advancing students’ abilities to evaluate their own academic writing.…”

    An RRM–ZnF RNA recognition module targets RBM10 to exonic sequences to promote exon exclusion by Collins, Katherine M., Kainov, Yaroslav A., Christodolou, Evangelos, Ray, Debashish, Morris, Quaid, Hughes, Timothy, Taylor, Ian A., Makeyev, Eugene V., Ramos, Andres

    Published 2017
    “…Importantly, a second RRM domain (RRM2) of RBM10 recognizes a C-rich sequence, which explains its known interaction with the intronic 3΄ site of NUMB exon 9 contributing to regulation of the Notch pathway in cancer. Together, these findings explain RBM10's broad RNA specificity and suggest that RBM10 functions as a splicing regulator using two RNA-binding units with different specificities to promote exon skipping.…”
