Ice‐Droplet and Damaged Elastomer Interfaces: A Closer Look at Contact and Morphology of Anti‐Icing Coatings Using Cryo‐FIB‐SEM

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Cryo‐FIB‐SEM is used to mill and image the interfaces of ice droplets frozen on PDMS coatings damaged by abrasion and cutting. Both high‐ and low‐real contact areas are revealed for the first time, with interpenetration dependent on the shape of asperities on the damaged surface.

Immersion in the anatomical dissection room using a virtual reality headset to reduce medical student anxiety: A randomized controlled trial

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomical dissection is a fundamental component of medical education but is often associated with significant student anxiety that is hence important to consider. This randomized controlled trial aimed to assess whether immersive preparation using a 360° virtual reality (VR) video could reduce anxiety and stress in medical students prior to ...

The ultimate forgery: A semiotic deconstruction of large language models as engines of simulated selfhood

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Information science rests on a compact: its mediating signs maintain a traceable relation to what they describe. Large language models (LLMs) break it architecturally, generating discourse that is statistically plausible yet epistemically ungrounded, while standard metrics (precision, recall, relevance) cannot detect the rupture.

Dose‐related propofol resistance in COVID‐19 patients: Altered drug plasma levels, mechanistic insights from neuronal‐derived extracellular vesicles and miRNA analysis

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Critical care for COVID‐19 patients presents unique challenges, particularly in sedation management. Patients demonstrate notable dose‐related resistance to propofol, potentially due to complex pharmacokinetic alterations. Emerging evidence suggests that plasma extracellular vesicle‐associated miRNA represents valuable predictive ...

Falling pupil numbers and school closures: Setting a research agenda for a new era of precarity

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores the significant phenomenon of decreasing pupil numbers in England due to lower birth rates and the impact of a school closure on a school community. It then discusses how the sociology of education might research this major issue.

Teacher confidence and student engagement with mental health and wellbeing lessons: Learning from an iterative curriculum intervention in schools

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract The mental health and wellbeing of young people has received increasing attention in both research and the wider public discourse. There has been a marked rise in mental health conditions in young people, and the burden of care is increasingly transferred onto schools and teachers.
