Elucidating the role of metabolic changes in modulating cell fate following treatment with anti-mitotic drugs by Wong, Alex Xing Fah

“…Better understanding of the cellular pathways underlying this escape from antimitotic drug-induced cell death, known as mitotic slippage, is crucial for development of combinatorial therapies that can enhance existing treatment regimen in patients. Mitotic slippage describes a phenomenon where cells escape mitotic arrest and cell death following treatment with anti-mitotic drugs, and "slip" into interphase without proper chromosome segregation and cytokinesis. …”

Evaluating new malaria vaccine candidates by Noé, A

“…Liver-resident memory CD8+ T cells (TRM) are necessary for protection against rodent malaria by this vaccine regimen. Ultimately, to most faithfully assess immunological responses by these local, specialised, hepatic T cells, periodic liver sampling is necessary. …”

Characterisation of novel electroactive consortia from environmental samples enriched through potentiostatic growth by Doyle, Lucinda Elizabeth

“…Comparison revealed the enriched community from canal sediment was superior to that from the mangrove sediment in terms of electrogenic activity when evaluated by chronoamperometry, and was chosen for further characterisation. …”

An interactive control architecture for interpersonal coordination in mirror game by Zhai, Chao, Chen, Michael Z. Q., Alderisio, Francesco, Yu. Uteshev, Alexei, Di Bernardo, Mario

“…In this work, an interactive control architecture based on velocity segments is developed to generate the human-like trajectories in the mirror game, a simple yet effective paradigm for studying interpersonal coordination, and the existence of velocity segments possessing a prescribed signature is theoretically guaranteed. …”

Self-similar sketch by Vedaldi, A, Zisserman, A

“…The resulting collection of segments constitutes a "sketch" of the image. This is applied to the task of estimating vanishing points, horizon, and zenith in standard benchmark data, obtaining state-of-the-art results. …”

Is social media really that effective for communicating budget policies to citizens? – a case study of the Singapore budget 2018 by Chin, Zhao Wei

“…Citizen feedback is collected using an online public survey, of which demographical factors such as age, educational qualifications and employment status were cross-tabulated and suggest that social media avenues such as Facebook may not be the best way to communicate budget policy to certain segments of the population. Moreover, there is a risk of investing too much focus on social media, such that other segments of the population may be neglected. …”
