Insights into the K–Pg extinction aftermath: The Danish Cerithium Limestone Member

The Cretaceous–Palaeogene (K–Pg) mass extinction about 66 Ma ago was one of Earth’s largest mass extinction events. The demise of calcifiers, among others, influenced biogeochemical cycles and changed the conditions for carbonate depo sition in the global ocean. This study addresses the sedimentology and carbonate microfacies of the Cerithium Limestone Member of the Rødvig Formation within the ren

Moral distress and ethical decision-making of eldercare professionals involved in digital service transformation

Aim: Technology affects almost all aspects of modern eldercare. Ensuring ethical decision-making is essential as eldercare becomes more digital; each decision affects a patient’s life, self-esteem, health and wellness. Methods: We conducted a survey and interviews with eldercare professionals to better understand the behavioural ethics and decision making involved in the digital transition of elde

The Use of Information and Communication Technology Among Older Immigrants in Need of Home Care : a Systematic Literature Review

Better home care and home care technologies are no longer requested solely by nonimmigrant older adults but also by members of the fast-growing older adult immigrant population. However, limited attention has been given to this issue, or to the use of technology in meeting the needs of aging populations. The objective of this review is to map existing knowledge of older adult immigrants' use of in

Diverse understandings and values of nature at the peace–environment nexus: a critical analysis and policy implications towards decolonial peace

Scholarship in peace and conflict studies is paying increasing attention to the role of the environment for conflict transformation and peacebuilding. However, a closer analysis on how different understandings of “nature” implicate policy proposals and approaches to peacebuilding is lacking. In this study, we provide a critical reflection on the diverse understandings and valuations of nature at t

Analysing Driver (In)Attentiveness : Towards a Cognitive Complexity Model Combining Visuospatial and Interactional Parameters : 8th International Conference on Driver Distraction and Inattention (DDI 2022), Gothenburg, Sweden, October 19-20, 2022

We investigate the role of visuospatial environmental cues on driver (in)attention in everyday naturalistic driving situations. We develop a cognitive model of visuospatial complexity incorporating two critical aspects influencing visual (in)attention: (1) multimodal interaction mechanisms such as gesture, joint attention amongst roadside stakeholders (e.g. pedestrians, cyclists, drivers); and (2)

Child L2 acquisition of French : A review with a focus on research areas and methodology

This paper reviews research on child L2 French (cL2) published since 2000 with a focus on research areas and methodology in a broad sense. The aim of the review is to identify methodological trends in the research, to exemplify, and to provide a discussion of prominent features. The review shows that research on cL2 French has mainly focused on the acquisition of morphosyntax based on oral product

Improved MIMO-SAR Echo Separation Scheme with Constrained/Generalized LASSO Regression : New Insights and Applications

The separation of multiple transmit waveforms with time and frequency synchronization constitutes a considerable challenge for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) systems. It is well-known that aliased signal returns may be separable by digital beamforming (DBF) on receive in elevation. However, the current orthogonal-waveform beamforming schemes significantly incr

Psychiatric disorders among survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia in Denmark and Sweden

Background: The diagnosis and treatment of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) may impact mental health. We investigated the long-term risk of psychiatric disorders among survivors of ALL in a population-based cohort study. Methods: We identified patients diagnosed with ALL in Denmark and Sweden before age 20 during 1982–2008. Survivors of ALL (n = 2026), their siblings (n = 3027), and po

Development and Characterization of a High-Affinity Selective Galectin-3 Mouse Tool Compound in Mouse Models of Cancer

The interest in galectin-3 as a drug target in the cancer and fibrosis space has grown during the past few years with several new classes of compounds being developed. The first orally available galectin-3 inhibitor, GB1211 (h-galectin-3 Kd = 0.025 μM), is currently in phase 2 clinical trials. Due to structural differences between human and mouse galectin-3 a significant reduction in mouse galecti

The Association of Cardiometabolic, Diet and Lifestyle Parameters With Plasma Glucagon-like Peptide-1 : An IMI DIRECT Study

Context: The role of glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) in type 2 diabetes (T2D) and obesity is not fully understood. Objective: We investigate the association of cardiometabolic, diet, and lifestyle parameters on fasting and postprandial GLP-1 in people at risk of, or living with, T2D. Methods: We analyzed cross-sectional data from the two Innovative Medicines Initiative (IMI) Diabetes Research on P

‘Welcome to the Mayor’s Sukkah!’ : On the spatial, performative, and cultural politics of Safra Square, Jerusalem

This paper introduces a work-in-progress devoted to analysing the architectural design, public-performative functionality, and cultural-political semiotics of the Safra Square (ספרא כיכר, Kikar Safra) and City Hall complex, Western Jerusalem. Built around the historic Town Hall of the British Governate, and inaugurated in 1993, the City Hall complex is strategically located along the bustling pede
