Visualizing the invisible: class excursions to ignite children’s enthusiasm for microbes
(2020-05-14)
We have recently argued that, because microbeshave pervasive – often vital – influences on ourlives, and that therefore their roles must be takeninto account in many of the decisions we face, soci-ety must become ...
Determinants of weekly sitting time: Construct validation of an initial COM-B model and comparison of its predictive validity with the Theory of Planned Behaviour
(2020-05-14)
Objective: In relation to sitting behaviour, to investigate which theoretical domains best formed the Capability, Opportunity, and Motivation constructs of the COM-B, and compare the predictive validity to the Theory of ...
Iterative Robust Semi-Supervised Missing Data Imputation
(2020-05-12)
In many real-world applications scientists are often confronted with the problem of incomplete datasets due to several reasons. The direct analysis of datasets with missing values in attributes inevitably results in ...
The e-MERLIN Galaxy Evolution Survey (e-MERGE) : Overview and Survey Description
(2020-05-08)
We present an overview and description of the eMERLIN Galaxy Evolution survey (eMERGE) Data Release 1 (DR1), a large program of high-resolution 1.5 GHz radio observations of the GOODS-N field comprising $\sim140$ hours of ...
Usefulness of the NULL-PLEASE Score to predict 1 survival in out-of hospital cardiac arrest
(2020-05-07)
Purpose: Out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) carries a very high mortality even after successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation. Currently, information given to relatives regarding prognosis following resuscitation is ...
Does Expression of Grounded Affect in a Hexapod Robot Elicit More Prosocial Responses?
(EPSRC UK-RAS Network, 2020-05-07)
We consider how non-humanoid robots can communicate their affective state via bodily forms of communication, and the extent to which this can influence human response. We propose a simple model of grounded affect and kinesic ...
Poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) – poly(ethylene glycol) – poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) as a thermoreversible gelator for topical administration
(2020-05-06)
Poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) – block– poly(ethylene glycol) – block– poly(N-isopropyl acrylamide) is known to exhibit a thermally-induced solution-to-gel transition in water, which may be exploited for biomedical applications. ...
