Unraveling the developmental dynamic of visual exploration of social interactions in autism

eLife
Atypical deployment of social gaze is present early on in toddlers with autism spectrum disorders (ASDs). Yet, studies characterizing the developmental dynamic behind it are scarce. Here, we used a data-driven method to delineate the developmental change

Euro: the engine of integration or the seed of dissolution?

Agricultural Economics (AGRICECON), 2008
The common currency Euro is considered one of the biggest achievements of the European political and economic integration. However, it is necessary to stress that Euro was always first and foremost a political feat.

After Progress Perhaps Another Education is Possible: We Can Be Pagans for More Than One Day!

Nordic Studies in Education
This paper attempts to bring together a series of ideas/concepts from the work of Isabelle Stengers, Didier Debaise, Jean-Francois Lyotard, Anna Tsing and others in order to apply them to the notion ‘after progress,’ which has some bearing on the theme ...

Divergence in Potential Contact Pheromones and Genital Morphology Among Sympatric Song Types of the Bush Cricket Mecopoda elongata

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2018
A well-established route to speciation in animals is via the evolution of divergent male mating signals and female preferences within a species. However, an open question is how common it is for near complete isolation to be achieved through a single ...

Bisimulations and divergence

[1988] Proceedings. Third Annual Information Symposium on Logic in Computer Science, 1990
The purpose of this paper is to investigate how bisimulation equivalence may be refined to give preorders which provide divergence-respecting approximation orderings between processes whose associated theories are as close as possible to that of bisimulation equivalence. The work is based on ideas first introduced in \textit{M. Hennessy} and \textit{G.

Ontogenetic and interspecific variation in skull morphology of two closely related species of toad, Bufo bufo and B. spinosus (Anura: Bufonidae)

Acta Herpetologica, 2019
Using micro-CT and 3D landmark-based geometric morphometrics, I investigated postmetamorphic shape variation in the skull of Bufo bufo and Bufo spinosus, two widespread European toad species with small phenotypic differences.

Bridging the Loneliness Gap: Depression, Connectivity, and Isolation in Pediatric Oncology Patients and Their Peers

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Loneliness is associated with adverse physical and mental health outcomes and remains understudied in children and adolescents undergoing cancer therapy. Pediatric oncology patients may be at increased risk due to medical isolation and disruption of social networks.

ON INFRARED DIVERGENCES

Nuclear Physics B, 1979
Revised 25 September 1978 We study the structure of infrared divergences in superrenormalizable interactions. We conjecture that there is an extension of the Bogoliubov-Parasiuk-Hepp theorem which copes also with infrared divergences. We discuss the consequences of this conjecture on the singularities of the Borel transform in a massless asymptotic ...
