Neglect and the protection of refugee children
NEGLECT is widely understood as the most prevalent form of maltreatment that children are exposed to globally. To date, however, there has been minimal focus on the extent and nature of child neglect in settings of displacement...
Conceptualising and Challenging Child Neglect in Humanitarian Action
Background: Humanitarian organisations commonly identify neglect as a specific form of harm from which children should be protected. However, lack of debate about the aetiology of child neglect has left intact a tendency to...

Challenges in modelling diffusiophoretic transport
Abstract: The methodology to simulate transport phenomena in bulk systems is well-established. In contrast, there is no clear consensus about the choice of techniques to model cross-transport phenomena and phoretic transport...

Missing the missing values
Abstract: Nowadays, there is an increasing concern in machine learning about the causes underlying unfair decision making, that is, algorithmic decisions discriminating some groups over others, especially with groups that are...
Strengthening primary health care
BACKGROUND: Health systems that have strong primary health care at their core have overall better patient outcomes. Primary health care is key to achieving Universal Health Coverage and the broader health-related Sustainable...

The Lennard-Jones potential
The Lennard-Jones 12-6 potential (LJ) is arguably the most widely used pair potential in molecular simulations. In fact, it is so popular that the question is rarely asked whether it is fit for purpose. In this paper, we argue...
The State of Artificial Intelligence in Marketing With Directions for Future Research
Today, artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming increasingly important in both industry and academics. To investigate AI in marketing, we have used bibliometric study, social network analysis (SNA), main path analysis, and...

Microprojection arrays applied to skin generate mechanical stress, induce an inflammatory transcriptome and cell death, and improve vaccine-induced immune responses
Hwee-Ing Ng, Zewen K. Tuong, Germain J. P. Fernando, Alexandra C. I. Depelsenaire, Stefano C. Meliga, Ian H. Frazer, Mark A. F. Kendall
Oct 10, 2020
Abstract: Chemical adjuvants are typically used to improve immune responses induced by immunisation with protein antigens. Here we demonstrate an approach to enhance immune responses that does not require chemical adjuvants. We...
Ethical Design of Social Technology
Social technology has become ubiquitous in everyday life. Developers of social technologies seek design elements and new technologies, such as machine learning algorithms, aimed at increasing user engagement. Increased user...
