Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment
FEBS 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

Forgiveness in human-machine interaction
Frontiers in Computer ScienceForgiveness has been extensively studied across various academic fields, but not in relation to Human-Machine Interaction (HMI). The work presented in this article aims to answer two interrelated questions: what is forgiveness in HMI, and how do we ...

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Doe one need to go a long way to dig deep? An empirical comparison of online and traditional focus groups. [PDF]
We evaluate the potential of online focus groups to trigger deep level customer information, which is the major aim of focus groups. We do so by comparing its yield to that of its traditional counterpart.

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

The use of 360-videos to bridge the gap between pre-clinical and clinical dental teaching
BMC Medical EducationBackground The transition from pre-clinical to clinical teaching is often a time of heightened anxiety for students. With the shift to bi-modal teaching during the pandemic there was an opportunity to explore the use of 360-degree videos and virtual ...

Developing Farmer Focus Groups as a Knowledge Transfer Mechanism: A Practical Experience [PDF]
The use of farmer focus groups is discussed as a mechanism for effective knowledge transfer activity, and the functionality of the focus farm contrasted with that of the demonstration farm. Key qualities of focus farmers and the essential characteristics
