Modulation of visual-motor responses by the perception of object affordance, automatic imitation and action agency by Pereira Lima, R

“…The result suggested that, at least for error rates, when the relationship between an object and its action-related stimulus is explicit, affordances can elicit an attentional bias towards a representation of the action that a recently seen object affords.…”

Serological response of chickens to oral vaccination with newcastle disease virus by Spradbrow, P.B., Samuel, J.L., Ibrahim, A.Latif

High-pressure Response in Two-dimensional Perovskites with Fluorinated Organic Spacers by Ong, Brandon Toon Sheng

“…In this report, we demonstrated applying high pressure causes a significant bandgap narrowing in both perovskites. When a fluorine atom is substituted in (PEA)2PbI4, the intermolecular bonds between each molecule are stronger than without the presence of the fluorinated organic cation under the same pressure conditions for both the organic and inorganic framework of the perovskite. …”

Developing a tongue coating index for Traditional Chinese Medicine by Choy, Meng Xuan

“…Approach 1, where L-a-b values of each tongue region were compared with those of the tongue tip, and Approach 2, where L-a-b values of each tongue region were compared with those of the ideal tongue color (Pink). Results obtained show that Approach 1 was more consistent with visual perception of post-corrected tongue images in the database. …”

Age-related differences in functional connectivity during scene encoding by Leow, Dayton Wei Yang

“…Past neuroimaging studies have found both the parahippocampus in the MTL and inferior frontal gyrus (IFG) in the PFC to be activated for scene encoding.3 In addition, when scenes are encoded based on its meaningfulness (i.e. relational encoding), the hippocampus will be activated for relational binding of the stimuli.4. …”

Antibiotic resistance characteristics of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from keratitis in Australia and India by Khan, Mahjabeen, Stapleton, Fiona, Summers, Stephen, Rice, Scott A., Willcox, Mark D. P.

“…In the phylogenetic division, the number of core genes were similar in both groups, but Indian isolates had larger numbers of pan genes (median 6518, IQR = 6040–6935). Clones related to three different sequence types—ST308, ST316, and ST491—were found among Indian isolates. …”

Developing a novel radical source for cold, controlled reaction studies by Wu, LY

“…In the first studies with molecular oxygen, the second generation magnetic radical filter was able to preferentially focus and guide a portion of the ground state O2 molecules when centered on the beam axis. When the magnetic radical filter elements were moved to positions optimised by CMA-ES, it was effective as a tuneable velocity filter. …”

In vitro reconstitution of liquid-liquid phase separation in regulating gene transcription by Gan, Jia Yun

“…Purified TF9 was subsequently incubated under varying polyethylene glycol (PEG) concentrations and Sodium Chloride (NaCl) concentrations size to observe for any formation of droplets. TF9 was seen to start forming droplets at a concentration of 2.5 μM when incubated with 10% PEG and 150 mM NaCl buffer. …”
