A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Rationality and dynamic consistency under risk and uncertainty [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
For choice with deterministic consequences, the standard rationality hypothesis is ordinality - i.e., maximization of a weak preference ordering. For choice under risk (resp.

Internal consistency of a synthetic population construction method for chronic disease micro-simulation models

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Background Micro-simulation models of risk-factors and chronic diseases are built increasingly often, and each model starts with an initial population. Constructing such populations when no survey data covering all variables are available is no trivial ...

The Caenorhabditis elegans DPF‐3 and human DPP4 have tripeptidyl peptidase activity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPPIV) family comprises serine proteases classically defined by their ability to remove dipeptides from the N‐termini of substrates, a feature that gave the family its name. Here, we report the discovery of a previously unrecognized tripeptidyl peptidase activity in DPPIV family members from two different species.

Psychometric Properties of the Make My Day Tool to Assess Perceived Performance of Children ’ s Daily Activities

open access: yesOpen Journal of Occupational Therapy, 2017
Background: No instrument with strong psychometric qualities exists to measure occupational performance in young children through child-reporting. We investigated the reliability and validity of the Make My Day (MMD) tool for children aged 4 to 7 years

THE TALMUD RULE AND THE SECUREMENT OF AGENTS? AWARDS [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper provides a new characterization of the Talmud rule by means of a new property, called securement. This property says that any agent holding a feasible claim will get at least one nht of her claim, where n is the number of agents involved.

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Numerical study of the discharge properties of atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge by using 200 kHz/13.56 MHz excitations

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2018
In this work involving an atmospheric dielectric barrier discharge system, the feasibility of independence control of key plasma parameters through strategic modulation of applied dual-frequency excitation sources is demonstrated.

Lexicographic Compositions of Two Criteria for Decision Making [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper considers two distinct procedures to lexicographically compose two criteria for social or individual decision making. The first procedure composes two binary relations into one, and then selects its maximal elements. The second procedure first

Calibrating EASY-Care independence scale to improve accuracy

open access: yesAge and Ageing, 2016
Background there is currently limited support for the reliability and validity of the EASY-Care independence scale, with little work carried out in low- or middle-income countries.
