Journal of Hospital Medicine, EarlyView.Abstract Background High‐quality clinician‐patient communication is associated with improved patient understanding, trust, and healthcare outcomes. However, the hospital environment poses unique challenges to effective communication, and research documents that many hospitalized patients report poor communication with clinicians. Objective Characterize

A strategic method for expanding the Pacific Flyway Motus network
The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.We identified high‐use areas of the Pacific Flyway by state where new Motus receiving stations would have the highest probability of detecting multiple tagged avian species of interest with the highest certainty. Abstract Understanding the movement and survival of birds of conservation concern during migration is critical for guiding conservation ...

Long‐term variation in environmental conditions influences host–parasite fitness
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Long‐term data on host and parasite fitness are important for predicting how host–parasite interactions will be altered in an era of global change. Here, we use data collected from 1997 to 2013 to explore effects of changing environmental conditions on ...

Inter-Annual Variability of Fledgling Sex Ratio in King Penguins. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 As the number of breeding pairs depends on the adult sex ratio in a monogamous species with biparental care, investigating sex-ratio variability in natural populations is essential to understand population dynamics.

Behavior and ecology of post-fledging American Kestrels
, 1991 I studied the behavior, habitat and perch use, causes of mortality, and time to dispersal of post-fledging American Kestrels (Falco sparverius) during spring and summer 1988-1990 in central Iowa. To monitor kestrel activity, I attached radio-transmitters

Optimizing Ball‐Milled Composites for Fast Energy Release Under Shock Compression
Propellants, Explosives, Pyrotechnics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Microparticle additives containing both Al fuel and oxidizer, fabricated by arrested reactive milling (ARM), could potentially increase the power of energetic materials such as HMX because they contain premixed fuel and oxidizer. Optimizing shock reactivity requires exploring a vast parametric space encompassing composition, milling parameters

Methylation patterns at fledging predict delayed dispersal in a cooperatively breeding bird.
PLoS ONE, 2021 Individuals may delay dispersing from their natal habitat, even after maturation to adulthood. Such delays can have broad consequences from determining population structure to allowing an individual to gain indirect fitness by helping parents rear future

Hatching and fledging? A meta‐analysis of the performance effects of business incubators
Strategic Entrepreneurship Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Research Summary Business incubators are among the most widely implemented instruments to foster entrepreneurship. Yet empirical evidence on their effectiveness remains fragmented and often contradictory. Limited research systematically compares how different types of incubators influence multiple venture performance outcomes, including ...
