Speech perception in older hearing impaired listeners: benefits of perceptual training.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Hearing aids (HAs) only partially restore the ability of older hearing impaired (OHI) listeners to understand speech in noise, due in large part to persistent deficits in consonant identification.

Subpar reporting of pre‐analytical variables in RNA‐focused blood plasma studies

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Pre‐analytical variables strongly influence the analysis of extracellular RNA (cell‐free RNA; exRNA) derived from blood plasma. Their reporting is essential to allow interpretation and replication of results. By evaluating 200 exRNA studies, we pinpoint a lack of reporting pre‐analytical variables associated with blood collection, plasma preparation ...

Indo-Uralic and Altaic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Elsewhere I have argued that the Indo-European verbal system can be understood in terms of its Indo-Uralic origins because the reconstructed Indo-European endings can be derived from combinations of Indo-Uralic morphemes by a series of well-motivated ...

Consonance of Vibrotactile Chords

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Haptics, 2014
This paper is concerned with the perception of complex vibrotactile stimuli in which a few sinusoidal vibrations with different frequencies are superimposed. We begin with an observation that such vibrotactile signals are analogous to musical chords in which multiple notes are played simultaneously. A set of so-called "vibrotactile chords" are designed

Identification of functional and diverse circulating cancer‐associated fibroblasts in metastatic castration‐naïve prostate cancer patients

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs) promote cancer growth, invasion (metastasis), and drug resistance. Here, we identified functional and diverse circulating CAFs (cCAFs) in patients with metastatic prostate cancer (mPCa). cCAFs were found in higher numbers and were functional and diverse in mPCa patients versus healthy individuals, suggesting their ...

Can you hear me clearly? The differential effects of surgical mask on Cantonese consonant, vowel, and tone perception

open access: yesFrontiers in Communication
This study examined the differential effects of surgical mask on Cantonese consonant, vowel, and tone perception. Forty native Cantonese adults were tested with the Cantonese consonant, vowel, and tone identification tasks.

Influences on articulatory timing in consonant sequences

open access: yes, 1996
This paper presents an experimental study of articulatory timing in English consonant sequences using electropalatography (EPG). Effects of consonantal place, manner, and syllable structure on reduction and temporal overlap are considered.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

Final proposal to encode the Pahawh Hmong script in the UCS [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This is a proposal to encode the Pahawh Hmong script in the international character encoding standard Unicode. Pahawh Hmong was published in Unicode Standard version 7.0 in June 2014. The script is said to have been devised in the latter half of the 20c.
