The enduring importance of the “fine cuts” approach to psychology: EPS Mid-Career Award Lecture 2024 by Bird, G

“…In this article, I take a selective review of work undertaken by my colleagues and me in an attempt to show the enduring importance of the “fine cuts” approach to psychology. This approach highlights the importance of causal, specific, and falsifiable psychological models, and the rigorous experimental designs needed to test them. …”

Long-term fine particulate matter exposure on lung cancer incidence and mortality in Chinese nonsmokers by Chen, Z, Meng, X, Han, Y, Mou, Y, Ji, C, Zhu, X, Yu, C, Sun, D, Yang, L, Sun, Q, Chen, Y, Du, H, Dai, J, Hu, Z, Lv, J, Jin, G, Ma, H, Kan, H, Li, L, Shen, H

Microbubble-mediated sonoporation for highly efficient transfection of recalcitrant human B-cell lines by Yong, Charlene Li Ling, Ow, Dave Siak-Wei, Tandiono, Tandiono, Heng, Lisa Li Mei, Chan, Ken Kwok-Keung, Ohl, Claus-Dieter, Klaseboer, Evert, Ohl, Siew-Wan, Choo1, Andre Boon-Hwa

“…Here, we present sonoporation as a feasible non-viral strategy for stable and highly efficient heterologous transfection of recalcitrant B-cell lines. This is the first demonstration of a non-viral method yielding transfection efficiencies significantly higher (42%) than the best reported values of electroporation (30%) for Ramos B-cell lines.…”

Tailoring the properties of shape memory polymers via UV cross-linking by Gay, Angela Shi Hui

“…This study covers the experimental investigation of ultraviolet (UV) resin and Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS)-like resin properties when it is cross-linked via UV and its shape memory behaviour. Several tests were conducted to observe the characteristics of both UV resin and ABS-like resin and when it is mixed with other polymers such as Polycaprolactone (PCL) and Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). …”
