The ability to DNA fingerprint Mycobacterium bovis isolates helped to define the role of wildlife in the persistence of bovine tuberculosis in New Zealand. DNA fingerprinting results currently help to guide wildlife control...
Antibody-Effector Functions in Antiviral Response
Kevin Shuolong Kao
Jan 01, 0001
Antibodies are a fundamental component of the adaptive arm of the immune system. Interactions of the antibody's fragment crystallizable (Fc) domain with Fc receptors (FcR) on effector leukocytes is essential for proper...

Neuroscience out of control
A major challenge in systems neuroscience is to understand how the dynamics of neural circuits give rise to behaviour. Analysis of complex dynamical systems is also at the heart of control engineering, where it is central to the...
Null Ain't Dull
Classical work has viewed primary motor cortex (M1) as a controller of muscle and body dynamics. A recent brain-computer interface (BCI) experiment suggests a new, complementary perspective: M1 is itself a dynamical system under...
Optimal anticipatory control as a theory of motor preparation
Across a range of motor and cognitive tasks, cortical activity can be accurately described by low-dimensional dynamics unfolding from specific initial conditions on every trial. These "preparatory states" largely determine the...
Heart Rate Variability is a Moderating Factor in the Workload-Injury Relationship of Competitive CrossFit Athletes
Heart rate variability (HRV) is a popular tool for monitoring training adaptation and readiness in athletes, but it also has the potential to indicate early signs of somatic tissue overload prior to the onset of pain or fully...
The challenges of detecting subtle population structure and its importance for the conservation of emperor penguins
Jane L. Younger, Gemma V. Clucas, Damian Kao, Alex D. Rogers, Karim Gharbi, Tom Hart, Karen J. Miller
Jul 27, 2017
Understanding the boundaries of breeding populations is of great importance for conservation efforts and estimates of extinction risk for threatened species. However, determining these boundaries can be difficult when...

Clinical trials that utilize MRS as a biomarker
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is an ideal tool for therapeutic monitoring in clinical trials although its role has not been formally examined. An initial search for the use of MRS in a clinical trials database showed 488...
The effect of social information from live demonstrators compared to video playback on blue tit foraging decisions.
Video playback provides a promising method to study social interactions, and the number of video playback experiments has been growing in recent years. Using videos has advantages over live individuals as it increases the...
Enhancing thermal stability and mechanical resilience in gelatin/starch composites through polyvinyl alcohol integration
Dongling Qiao, Yuchun Huang, Xinran Hou, Fayin Ye, Kao Wu, Fatang Jiang, Guohua Zhao, Guohua Zhao, Binjia Zhang, Fengwei Xie

Integrated safety profile of atacicept
Caroline Gordon, Roberto Bassi, Peter Chang, Amy Kao, David Jayne, David Wofsy, Patricia Fleuranceau-Morel
Jan 17, 2020
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the overall safety profile of atacicept, we conducted an integrated analysis of pooled safety data from all 17 clinical studies to date. METHODS: Three data sets were used to investigate safety...
Suitability and acceptability of the Carer Support Needs Assessment Tool (CSNAT) for the assessment of carers of people with MND
Objectives: Motor neurone disease (MND) is a progressive, life-limiting illness. Caregiving impacts greatly on family carers with few supportive interventions for carers. We report Stages 1 and 2 of a study to: (1) explore...
DNA preserved in jetsam whale ambergris.
Ruairidh Macleod, Mikkel-Holger S Sinding, Morten Tange Olsen, Matthew J Collins, Steven J Rowland
Feb 10, 2020
Jetsam ambergris, found on beaches worldwide, has always been assumed to originate as a natural product of sperm whales (Physeteroidea). However, only indirect evidence has ever been produced for this, such as the presence of...
Preservice teachers’ expressed awarenesses
Abstract In this paper, we report an enquiry into elementary preservice teachers’ learning, as they engage in doing mathematics for themselves. As a group of researchers working in elementary...
