Same data, different analysts: variation in effect sizes due to analytical decisions in ecology and evolutionary biology by Gould, E, Fraser, HS, Parker, TH, Nakagawa, S, Griffith, SC, Vesk, PA, Fidler, F, Hamilton, DG, Abbey-Lee, RN, Abbott, JK, Aguirre, LA, Alcaraz, C, Aloni, I, Altschul, D, Arekar, K, Atkins, JW, Atkinson, J, Baker, CM, Barrett, M, Bell, K, Bello, SK, Beltrán, I, Berauer, BJ, Bertram, MG, Wood, A

“…One possible explanation for variation among results is differences among researchers in the decisions they make regarding statistical analyses. A growing array of studies has explored this analytical variability in different fields and has found substantial variability among results despite analysts having the same data and research question. …”

Molecular dynamics and simulations study on the vibrational and electronic solvatochromism of benzophenone by Kumar, Venkatraman Ravi, Verma, Chandra, Umapathy, Siva

“…The >C=O stretching frequency undergoes a bathochromic shift with solvent polarity. Interestingly, in protic solvents this peak appears as a doublet: c-MDS and ad hoc explicit solvent ab initio calculations suggest that the lower and higher frequency peaks are associated with the hydrogen bonded and dangling carbonyl group of Bzp, respectively. …”

Conformational changes involved in signal transduction in avian cryptochromes by Gehrckens, AS

“…The findings on dimerisation are presented in chapter 5.</p> <p>Finally, by mapping conformational changes found in molecular dynamics simulations onto changes observed in a previous HDX-MS data set on the <em>Drosophila</em> cryptochrome, a few gaps left by the incomplete coverage of the current experimental data were filled by acquiring information on the phosphate-binding loop and the protrusion motif, two regions which have also been found to undergo light-induced structural changes for the avian cryptochromes investigated. …”
