This article puts forward the core argument that a pedagogical shift is very much needed if we want to address the challenges and capitalize on the opportunities represented by increasingly diverse educational settings and move towards a more inclusive, equal, and just academia. First, it is suggested that we replace the current pedagogical models in use, namely, the teacher-centered and student-c

Pd possesses attractive catalytic properties and nano-structuring is an obvious way to enhance catalytic activity. Alloying Pd with Pb has been shown to enhance the catalytic effect of alcohol oxidation. Further optimization of the catalytic effect can be accomplished by controlling the particle size and key to this is understanding the formation mechanism. By monitoring solvothermal syntheses usi

This paper presents an investigation that revolves around the Mexican writer Carlos Fuentes through three literary texts: Aura (1962), "Las dos Elenas" (Song of the Blind: 1964) and "La muñeca reina" (Song of the Blind: 1964). The concept under study is the double, a well-established phenomenon in literature, which often appears as a motive or theme in literary works. This essa

Polyploidy and metastasis are associated with a low probability of disease-free survival in cancer patients. Polyploid cells are known to facilitate tumorigenesis. However, few data associate polyploidization with metastasis. Here, by generating and using diploid (2n) and tetraploid (4n) clones from malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) and colon carcinoma (RKO), we demonstrate the migration and in

Background Interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) are incidental findings on chest computed tomography (CT). These patterns can present at an early stage of fibrotic lung disease. Our aim was to estimate the prevalence of ILA in the Swedish population, in particular in never-smokers, and find out its association with demographics, comorbidities and symptoms. Methods Participants were recruited to t

Visualizing fine details in a turbid media is extremely challenging due to multiple light scattering. Here we combine spatial filtering, Fourier Ptychography and image multiplexing to enableinstantaneous high-resolutionimagingofturbidmedia.

The report reviews the literature to identify existing best practices used to prevent incursions into work zones and improve safety of road users and road workers. A systematic literature search was conducted and various available sources referred to by knowledgeable experts in the field were considered. Best practices found in the literature review comprise both regulatory/management issues and t

Ecogeographical rules, describing common trends in animal form across space and time, have provided key insights into the primary factors driving species diversity on our planet. Among the most well-known ecogeographical rules are Bergmann's rule and Allen's rule, with each correlating ambient temperature to the size and shape of endotherms within a species. In recent years, these two rules have a

We investigate the propagation of environmental performance among competitors and in customer–supplier relationships. We find causal effect among competitors, while the propagation from customers to suppliers and vice versa appears insignificant or does not survive identification tests. The effect is stronger among firms in highly concentrated competitor networks and towards firms with less market

We investigate the effects of three events with major importance for climate policy on energy sector stocks: the Paris Agreement, the Trump election and presidency, and the Biden election. By combining event studies with impulse-indicator saturation methods, we show that the Paris Agreement and the election of Mr. Biden benefited renewable industries, while the election of Mr. Trump had negative e

Migrating birds perform extreme endurance exercise when fly-ing. This shifts the balance between the production of reactive oxygen species and the antioxidant defense system toward the former, potentially generating oxidative damages. In between migratory flights, birds make stopovers, where besides accumulat-ing fuel (mainly fats), they are assumed to rest and recover from the strenuous flight. W

Label-free chemical imaging of living and functioning systems is the holy grail of biochemical research. However, existing techniques often require extensive sample preparation to remove interfering molecules such as water, rendering many molecular imaging techniques unsuitable for in situ structural studies. Here, we examined freshly extracted tissue biopsies and living small vertebrates at submi
