Identification and characterization of microRNAs expressed in the African malaria vector Anopheles funestus life stages using high throughput sequencing
(Malaria Journal, 2016)Background: Over the past several years, thousands of microRNAs (miRNAs) have been identified in the genomes of various insects through cloning and sequencing or even by computational prediction. However, the number of ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Keep them coming back: The role of variety and aesthetics in institutional food satisfaction
(Food Quality and Preference, 2020)Institutional food service settings can deliver higher levels of support for healthy eating; yet institutional food outlets are not a customer favorite. Changing food service provisioning within institutional settings is ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Is it too late to prevent systemic danger to the world's poor?
(Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Climate Change, 2019)To answer the question “is it too late to stop dangerous climate change?” requires systemic thinking. An experiment named ‘climate risk disclosure’ is currently underway in the global financial industry, one that is seeking ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Heart Rate Fails to Predict White Collar Crime
(American Journal of Criminal Justice, 2019)This paper joins two strands of research: a focus on the influence of heart rate on antisocial behavior and the correlates of white-collar offending. With respect to the former, resting heart rate has been found to be one ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -

Development and external validation study of a melanoma risk prediction model incorporating clinically assessed naevi and solar lentigines
(British Journal of Dermatology, 2019)Background: Melanoma risk prediction models could be useful for matching preventive interventions to patients’ risk. Objectives: To develop and validate a model for incident first-primary cutaneous melanoma using clinically ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Computer analysis of impact behavior of concrete filled steel tube columns
(Advances in Engineering Software, 2015)This paper presents a numerical study of the response of axially loaded concrete filled steel tube (CFST) columns under lateral impact loading using explicit non-linear finite element techniques. The aims of this paper are ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Simple self-interaction correction to random-phase-approximation-like correlation energies
(Physical Review A, 2019)The random-phase approximation (RPA) is exact for the exchange energy of a many-electron ground state, but RPA makes the correlation energy too negative by about 0.5 eV/electron. That large short-range error, which tends ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Changes in Dosing and Dose Timing of D-Cycloserine Explain Its Apparent Declining Efficacy for Augmenting Exposure Therapy for Anxiety-related Disorders: An Individual Participant-data Meta-analysis
(Journal of Anxiety Disorders, 2019)The apparent efficacy of d-cycloserine (DCS) for enhancing exposure treatment for anxiety disorders appears to have declined over the past 14 years. We examined whether variations in how DCS has been administered can account ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
Using social media images to assess ecosystem services in a remote protected area in the Argentinean Andes
(Ambio, 2019)Social media images are a novel source of data to assess how people view and value the environment. Access to these images is often free, the volume and spread of images is expanding rapidly and hence they are an increasingly ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -

Safety of peripheral administration of vasopressor medications: A systematic review
(Emergency Medicine Australasia, 2019)OBJECTIVE: Vasopressor medications have traditionally been administered via central venous catheters (CVCs), primarily due to concerns of peripheral extravasation of vasoconstrictive medications. Recent studies have suggested ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
On thermal strains and residual stresses in the linear theory of anti-sandwiches
(ZAMM, 2019)The current study aims to formulate the behaviour of anti-sandwiches that considers residual stresses and thermal strains by means of a layer-wise approach. To this end, the constitutive equations of classical linear ...JOURNAL ARTICLE -
