The artificial pancreas
Conor Farrington
Jul 18, 2019
Research into closed-loop systems is advancing, but many issues remain. Conor Farrington reports.
After a long lead-in period, artificial pancreas technology is well on its way to revolutionising the treatment of diabetes. The...
Ireland-Claisen rearrangement of ynamides
The Ireland-Claisen rearrangement of propargyl ynamido ester substrates is reported. The expected allenamide carboxylic acid products from [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement are not isolated, with 2-amidodienes alternatively formed...
A Feminist Critique on the Limits of Rawls
Conor Arsenault
Jan 05, 2017
The general aim of this paper is to elaborate on the political philosophy of John Rawls, specifically his concepts such as the original position, the veil of ignorance, and the difference principle. In clarifying these concepts...

Identifying problems and solutions in scientific text.
Research is often described as a problem-solving activity, and as a result, descriptions of problems and solutions are an essential part of the scientific discourse used to describe research activity. We present an automatic...

Chronic Stress Effects on Prefrontal Cortical Structure and Function
Conor Liston
Jan 01, 0001
Stressful life events have been implicated clinically in the pathogenesis of major depression, but the neural substrates that may account for this observation remain poorly understood. Attentional impairments symptomatic of...

Literalising Metaphor in the Poetry of Robert Southwell
<sup>☆</sup>
Conor McKee
Jun 07, 2022
Abstract: This article focuses on a distinctive feature of Robert Southwell's poetic technique, namely, his approach to metaphor. I argue that a number of Southwell's metaphors have a surprisingly literal quality where their...
Leadership off the pitch
Research question: The first-team manager’s position in semi-professional or professional football clubs can be viewed as the de-facto leadership role. Although there has been considerable research conducted in relation to...
Blended e-learning and end of life care in nursing homes
Conor Jt Farrington
Nov 09, 2017
BACKGROUND: A 'blended' (e-learning and facilitated workshops) training course for Group C staff (i.e. staff with relatively infrequent contact with end of life care) has been delivered across several English counties with the...
Gold-catalysed cascade rearrangements of ynamide propargyl esters
Stephen J. Heffernan, James M. Beddoes, Mary F. Mahon, Alan J. Hennessy, David R. Carbery
Jan 01, 0001
The Au(I)-catalysed rearrangement of propargylic esters formed from an ynamide has been studied. The reaction is facile, and when conducted in the presence of a reactive indole nucleophile, leads to a cascade process whereby...

Accounting for uncertainty
Sensorimotor coordination is thought to rely on cerebellar-based internal models for state estimation, but the underlying neural mechanisms and specific contribution of the cerebellar components is unknown. A central aspect...
Performance management:
Performance management is integral for high-performing organizations and teams. The purpose of this review was to synthesize evidence on performance management across elite sport and other performance-focused domains...
Cerebellar state estimation enables resilient coupling across behavioural domains
Cerebellar computations are necessary for fine behavioural control and may rely on internal models for estimation of behaviourally relevant states. Here, we propose that the central cerebellar function is to estimate how...
