Somatosensory and clinical profiles of patients with spine-related and clinical framework-based neck–arm pain by Kapitza, C, Ballenberger, N, Luedtke, K, Schmid, AB, Tampin, B

“…A recently developed mechanism-based clinical framework for spine-related pain distinguishes between spinally referred pain without neurological deficits (somatic referred pain, heightened nerve mechanosensitivity, radicular pain), with neurological deficits (radiculopathy), and mixed-pain presentations. …”

Nonlinear effects in steady radiating waves: An exponential asymptotics approach by Kataoka, Takeshi, Akylas, T.R.

“…For this class of forcing profiles, the wave response hinges on beyond-all-orders asymptotics only if α > −1, and nonlinear effects differ fundamentally depending on whether α > 0, α = 0 or −1 < α < 0. …”

Translations: Designing Restorative Listening Experiences in the Age of Social Fragmentation by Obeng-Marnu, Naana

“…This thesis builds on a body of sociotechnical research at the MIT Center for Constructive Communication that draws upon "ancient wisdoms" of dialogue and listening and harnesses the power of technology to inform the design of dialogue spaces that promote deep, meaningful, and authentic conversations. Our approach hinges on the belief that society functions best when we hear and understand each other, an outcome that our work strives to advance by exposing people to the personal stories of others in ways that connect rather than divide. …”

On the total synthesis of complex alkaloids by Shennan, BDA

“…Multiple competing strategies are investigated before successfully developing an efficient route to the racemic pentacycle of daphlongeranine B. This strategy hinges upon a Michael addition followed by a Claisen rearrangement and ring-closing metathesis to establish three rings.…”

Information pollution and the war in Gaza: implications for Singapore by Wong, Yasmine, Haciyakupoglu, Gulizar

“…Besides demonstrating various disinformation types and tactics, there is also the increased resonance of certain disinformation narratives as they overlap and impact on societal sensitivities and identity-based fault lines. These are challenges for Singapore, as societal fault lines present vulnerabilities for disinformation penetration, ultimately affecting social cohesion.…”
