Characterization of an eye field-like state during optic vesicle organoid development. [PDF]
Specification of the eye field (EF) within the neural plate marks the earliest detectable stage of eye development. Experimental evidence, primarily from non-mammalian model systems, indicates that the stable formation of this group of cells requires the

The psychological legacy of past obesity and early mortality: evidence from two longitudinal studies. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: We test a novel 'weight scarring' hypothesis which suggests that past obesity is associated with impairments in current psychological well-being and this increases risk of negative physical health outcomes associated with obesity.

Educational attainment and allostatic load in later life: Evidence using genetic markers. [PDF]
Education is strongly correlated with health outcomes in older adulthood. Whether the impact of education expansion improves health remains unclear due to a lack of clarity over the causal relationship. Previous health research within the social sciences

On Error Modeling in GNSS-based Frequency Transfer: Effects of Temperature Variations and Satellite Orbit Repeat Times [PDF]
Frequency transfer is essential in various geodetic applications, where accuracy and low uncertainty are needed. The low uncertainty provides rigorous means to model and monitor the sea level, the atmosphere and the Earth’s gravitational field, where ...

Dyadic Associations between Body Mass Index, Stress and Type 2 Diabetes Complications [PDF]
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) can result in complications, including kidney problems or cardiovascular disease. Intrapersonal risk factors such as body mass index (BMI) and stress have been associated with increased odds of developing T2DM complications ...

Field-test of a robust, portable, frequency-stable laser [PDF]
We operate a frequency-stable laser in a non-laboratory environment where the test platform is a passenger vehicle. We measure the acceleration experienced by the laser and actively correct for it to achieve a system acceleration sensitivity of $\Delta f

Habitual dietary intake of IBD patients differs from population controls:a case-control study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Since evidence-based dietary guidelines are lacking for IBD patients, they tend to follow "unguided" dietary habits; potentially leading to nutritional deficiencies and detrimental effects on disease course.

Selfish grids: Game-theoretic modeling and NAS/PSA benchmark evaluation [PDF]
Selfish behaviors of individual machines in a Grid can potentially damage the performance of the system as a whole. However, scrutinizing the Grid by taking into account the noncooperativeness of machines is a largely unexplored research problem. In this

The Parkes Pulsar Timing Array Project [PDF]
A "pulsar timing array" (PTA), in which observations of a large sample of pulsars spread across the celestial sphere are combined, allows investigation of "global" phenomena such as a background of gravitational waves or instabilities in atomic ...
