Boyd said, "While we will continue to seek support from the state, external agencies, groups, and generous individuals, we must look for ways to achieve these goals by focusing on our core mission of educating students and...
Boyd previously served as dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Winthrop since 2003. The vice president for academic affairs provides leadership to five colleges, the library and the graduate school.
This study aimed to synthesize the literature on Metaverse to highlight its current research, opportunities, and applications in e-healthcare and education to reduce inequalities and for delivering fair and equal opportunities...
Is it just my e-magination, or are we in an e-lust for e-books? E-verywhere I look, now, I seem to e-ncounter something about eBooks. I have been ebombarded recently with a glut of eBook offers.
There are several studies that assess the influence of factors on citizens' intention to adopt e-government services in various contexts. However, there is a lack of research that examines the perceived barriers to B2G...
Trustees unanimously approved a resolution on June 19 thanking Acting President Debra Boyd for leading the institution during a year of transition. Also at the meeting, trustees approved a resolution to thank the 56-member...
The importance of accessibility to digital resources is now widely acknowledged. The W3C WAI has played a significant role in promoting the importance of accessibility and developing a framework for accessible Web resources. The...

OBJECTIVES: E-cigarette companies and vendors claim the potential of e-cigarettes to help smokers reduce or quit tobacco use. E-cigarettes also have the potential to renormalise smoking. The purpose of this study was to describe...
A short review of theoretical and experimental results on fragmentation in
e^+e^- annihilation is presented. Starting with an introduction of the concept
of fragmentation functions in e^+e^- annihilation, aspects of...
Use of e-cigarettes (inhalable vapour producing battery powered devices that aim to simulate tobacco cigarettes), is rising in a number of countries, but as yet none of these products are regulated as...
Acting President Debra Boyd said in a campuswide e-mail that a non-student male was arrested by the Winthrop Campus Police for sexually assaulting a female student in the Margaret Nance parking lot around 3 a.m. The student...
E-waste is a major global problem linked to the use, and discard of, electronic and electric devices. While the volume of these obsolete devices continues to increase and accumulate, the means and approaches currently used to...
$\textbf{Purpose }$– The development of e-grocery allows people to purchase food online and benefit from home delivery service. Nevertheless, a high rate of failed deliveries due to the customer’s absence causes significant loss...
A flavour-tagged time-dependent angular analysis of $B^0_s\to J/\psi\phi$
decays is presented where the $J/\psi$ meson is reconstructed through its decay
to an $e^+e^-$ pair. The analysis uses a sample of $pp$ collision data...
E-cadherin (CDH1) is a putative tumor suppressor gene implicated in breast carcinogenesis. Yet, whether risk factors or survival differ by E-cadherin tumor expression is unclear. We evaluated E-cadherin tumor...
Abstract: A flavour-tagged time-dependent angular analysis of Bs0→J/ψϕ decays is presented where the J/ψ meson is reconstructed through its decay to an e+e- pair. The analysis uses a sample of pp collision data recorded with the...
The disruption of large-scale brain networks is increasingly recognised as a consequence of neurodegenerative dementias. We assessed adults with behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia and progressive supranuclear palsy...
