Social Robots for Pedagogical Rehabilitation
The use of robots as educational learning tools is quite extensive worldwide, yet it is rather limited in special education. In particular, the use of robots in the field of special education is under skepticism since robots are...
Within-host spatiotemporal dynamic of systemic salmonellosis
During the last two decades our understanding of the complex in vivo host-pathogen interactions has increased due to technical improvements and new research tools. The rapid advancement of molecular biology, flow cytometry and...

An experimental design tool to optimize inference precision in data-driven mathematical models of bacterial infections in vivo.
The management of bacterial diseases calls for a detailed knowledge about the dynamic changes in host-bacteria interactions. Biological insights are gained by integrating experimental data with mechanistic mathematical models to...

Is Digital Game-Based Learning Possible in Mathematics Classrooms?
The literature reports that while digital educational games are used in the elementary classroom, they are rarely, if ever, used in the upper secondary mathematics classroom. In order to investigate this situation, a survey was...
Integrating mathematical models with experimental data to investigate the within-host dynamics of bacterial infections.
Bacterial infections still constitute a major cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide. The unavailability of therapeutics, antimicrobial resistance and the chronicity of infections due to incomplete clearance contribute to...

The impact of bilingualism on the narrative ability and the executive functions of children with autism spectrum disorders.
While there is ample evidence that monolingual children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) face difficulties with narrative story-telling and executive functions (EF), there is considerable uncertainty about how bilingualism...

Financial incentives for increasing uptake of HPV vaccinations
OBJECTIVE: Uptake of human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccinations by 17- to 18-year-old girls in England is below (<35%) target (80%). This trial assesses (a) the impact of financial incentives on uptake and completion of an HPV...

Relativistic approach to the kinematics of large-scale peculiar motions
Abstract: We consider the linear kinematics of large-scale peculiar motions in a perturbed Friedmann universe. In so doing, we take the viewpoint of the “real” observers that move along with the peculiar flow, relative to the...

Dynamic expression of the mouse orthologue of the human amyotropic lateral sclerosis associated gene <i>C9orf72</i> during central nervous system development and neuronal differentiation

The hexanucleotide repeat in the first intron of the C9orf72 gene is the most significant cause of amyotropic lateral sclerosis as well as some forms of fronto-temporal dementia. The C9orf72 protein has been previously...

Cognitive and Affective Aspects of Theory of Mind in Greek-Speaking Children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.
Substantial research indicates that individuals with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) have difficulties with Theory of Mind (ToM) abilities, but rarely have studies used a comprehensive battery to measure both the cognitive and...

Impact of warning labels on sugar-sweetened beverages on parental selection
Sugar-sweetened beverages (SSBs) are one of the largest added sugar sources to diets in the UK and USA, particularly among young people. Warning labels, including calorie information labels, could reduce SSB consumption but...
