Pain, Paradox, and Polysemy
(2021-07-05)The paradox of pain refers to the idea that the folk concept of pain is paradoxical, treating pains as simultaneously mental states and bodily states (e.g. Hill 2005, 2017; Borg et al. 2020). By taking a close look at our ... -
Painting as “information”? : Globalisation and Abstract Art
(Universidade Católica Editora, 2014-08-04)A common belief regarding globalisation is that it is driven by ‘information’. For Maurice Castells (1996) the primary vehicles of networked information were the internet and the media. This paper sets out to explore whether ... -
Paintings of Music
(2022-03-07)Paintings of music are a significant presence in modern art. They are cross-modal representations, aimed at representing music, say, musical works or forms, using colours, lines and shapes in the visual modality. This paper ... -
Pak1 and its T212 phosphorylated form accumulate in neurones and epithelial cells of the developing rodent
(2003-09-01)The serine/threonine kinase Pak1 is a target of the RhoGTPases Rac and Cdc42 and an important regulator of cell morphology and migration. Recent work from several laboratories has indicated that Pak1 controls microtubule ... -
The Pak1 kinase : an important regulator of neuronal morphology and function in the developing forebrain
(2008-06)The mammalian central nervous system (CNS) represents a highly complex unit, the correct function of which relies on the appropriate differentiation and survival of its neurones. It is becoming apparent that the Rho family ... -
Pak1 phosphorylation on T212 affects microtubules in cells undergoing mitosis
(2002-07-23)The Pak kinases are targets of the Rho GTPases Rac and Cdc42, which regulate cell shape and motility [1-5]. It is increasingly apparent that part of this function is due to the effect Pak kinases have on microtubule ... -
Palliative care for people with dementia living at home: a systematic review of interventions
(2019-07-01)Background: The European Association for Palliative Care White Paper defined optimal palliative care in dementia based on evidence and expert consensus. Yet, we know little on how to achieve this for people with dementia ... -
Palmitoyl carnitine : an endogenous promoter of calcium efflux from rat heart mitochondria
(1988)The effects of the fatty acid ester palmitoyl carnitine (PC) on mitochondrial Ca2+ handling and ATP synthesis are described. At low concentrations (5–40 μM) PC was found to produce changes in mitochondrial Ca2+ handling, ... -
Pan-Canadian Pharmaceutical Alliance (pCPA): Timelines Analysis and Policy Implications
(2019-02-18)This analysis follows our recent study showing that Canadian public reimbursement delays have lengthened from regulatory approval to listing decisions by public drug plans and delayed public access to innovative medicines, ... -
Pan-planets : Searching for hot Jupiters around cool dwarfs
(2016-03-01)The Pan-Planets survey observed an area of 42 sq deg. in the galactic disk for about 165 h. The main scientific goal of the project is the detection of transiting planets around M dwarfs. We establish an efficient procedure ... -
A Pan-STARRS 1 study of the relationship between wide binarity and planet occurrence in the Kepler field
(2016-02-01)The NASA Kepler mission has revolutionized time-domain astronomy and has massively expanded the number of known extrasolar planets. However, the effect of wide multiplicity on exoplanet occurrence has not been tested with ... -
The Pan-Thames EPS study : treatment and outcomes of encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis
(2009)Background: Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a disease process that can occur as a complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). The aim of this study was to make a general assessment of the clinical features, ... -
A panchromatic catalog of early-type galaxies at intermediate redshift in the Hubble Space Telescope wide field camera 3 early release science field
(2012-03-01)In the first of a series of forthcoming publications, we present a panchromatic catalog of 102 visually selected early-type galaxies (ETGs) from observations in the Early Release Science (ERS) program with the Wide Field ... -
Panchromatic SED modelling of spatially-resolved galaxies
(2018-05-11)We test the efficacy of the energy-balance spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting code MAGPHYS for recovering the spatially resolved properties of a simulated isolated disc galaxy, for which it was not designed. We ... -
Pandemic influenza control in Europe and the constraints resulting from incoherent public health laws
(2010)Background: With the emergence of influenza H1N1v the world is facing its first 21st century global pandemic. Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) and avian influenza H5N1 prompted development of pandemic preparedness ... -
Panel Discussion: Star Formation in Early-Type Galaxies
(Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1999)A panel discussion on past and current star formation in early-type galaxies was held on the second day of the conference. The panelists were Luc Binette, Elias Brinks, Paul Goudfrooij, Lisa Young, George Hau, Rick Pogge ... -
Panpsychism and Neutral Monism: How to Make Up One's Mind
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2016-11-03)With reference to Chalmers's taxonomy of combination problems, I argue that while the subject combination problem reveals panpsychism as ultimately theoretically unmotivated, a rival neutral monist/panprotopsychist theory ... -
Panpsychism and Russellian Monism
(Routledge, 2019-12-16)Russellian monist positions such as panpsychism are widely believed to have crucial advantages over mainstream physicalist and dualist positions. Physicalism disregards or distorts the distinctive features of consciousness, ...
