What does it mean to be a post‐Newtonian? Schelling on competing scientific models

open access: yesThe Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract While Schelling's position has often been portrayed as highly critical of Newton, his discussion of Newton's theories has never been thoroughly studied. The goal of this paper is to analyze in more detail the relationship between Schelling and Newton, with an eye toward the fundamental question that guides Schelling: how can conflicts between ...

What is a Multi‐Ethnic Party and How to Spot a Fake One?

open access: yesSwiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Multi‐ethnic parties have been variously defined: as those which do not champion the interests of, or mobilize against, any specific ethnic group; as those with a recognisably cross‐communal leadership or membership; and as those which acquire some distribution of support across groups.

The “Communal College:” Cross‐Ethnic Voting Rules and Census Requirements for Dyadic Consociational Democracies

open access: yesSwiss Political Science Review, EarlyView.
Abstract Electoral systems in deeply divided societies are pivotal for peace and stability among ethno‐national groups. Consociationalism and centripetalism are the most widespread approaches from which derive the major incentives for electoral systems in deeply divided, dyadic societies.

Teacher Perspectives of Student Engagement in Data Practice Instruction: Two Classroom Conditions

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines high school science teachers' perceptions of student engagement in data practices across two instructional contexts: a scaffolded, student‐centered environment using the Science Practices Innovation Notebook (SPIN) and a business‐as‐usual (BAU) teacher‐led investigation.

Animal Segregation: The Biopolitics of Concentrated Pig Farming

open access: yesTijdschrift voor Economische en Sociale Geografie, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the possibility to think through the concept of animal segregation to understand the more‐than‐human geographies of livestock animals. By redirecting the analytical tools for studying the spatial separation of humans to the segregation of animals, this paper contributes to understanding the geographical processes of ...

An experimentally informed computational model of neurovestibular adaptation to altered gravity

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Transitions to altered gravity environments result in acute sensorimotor impairment for astronauts, leading to serious mission and safety risks in the crucial first moments in a new setting. Our understanding of the time course and severity of impairment in the early stages of adaptation remains limited and confounded by unmonitored head ...

Mechanisms underlying local Ca2+ signalling differences between right and left atrial myocytes at normal and increased frequencies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left atrial myocytes have TAT‐associated faster Ca2+ release but are more prone to maladaptation at higher frequencies due to weaker peripheral SR Ca2+ uptake and smaller trigger Ca2+ current. Abstract Changes in heart rate affect Ca2+ signalling and contractility in ventricular muscle, but the effects on atrial Ca2+ signalling ...

Multiscale mechanistic modelling of heterogeneity in cardiac sub‐cellular calcium handling accounting for variable t‐system density

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Illustration of spatial calcium dynamics (left panels) and the state cycle approximation (middle panel) that enables reduced simulation of spatially dependent dynamics without explicit description of space (right panels). The selected example here illustrates a spontaneous calcium wave, showing temporal snapshots of local calcium
