Catherine de' Medici and the Forest of Orleans: Queenly Participation in Early Modern French Forest Management

open access: yesRenaissance Studies, EarlyView.
Abstract This essay demonstrates how a gender‐informed, more‐than‐human lens can provide new ways to analyse how the role of a queen in forestry management was conceptualised by sixteenth‐century professional men. It explores these ideas as they are presented in a work published by Guillaume Martin, Lieutenant General of the forests and waterways of ...

Systemic risk in the insurance sector: A semi‐parametric approach based on Spearman's rho

open access: yesRisk Management and Insurance Review, EarlyView.
Abstract We propose a new method to measure systemic risk in the global insurance sector by analyzing interconnectedness among firms under different market conditions. Using a semi‐parametric approach that relies on the Spearman correlation and copula‐based partial dependence, we assess relationships in relatively stable, extremely bullish, and ...

The Impact of an Integrated steM Camp on Middle School Students' Enjoyment, Career Knowledge, and Career Interest

open access: yesSchool Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Much of the work in STEM camps tends to be science‐driven with little attention given to mathematics. Guided by a mixed methods embedded research design using data from observations, questionnaires, and a group interview, we investigate if a camp that explicitly integrates mathematics had a positive impact on middle school students' STEM ...

Frequency responses of human magnetophosphene perception thresholds during dark adaptation point to rod modulation

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Magnetophosphenes are flickering lights perceived when an extremely low frequency magnetic field generates a sufficiently strong electric field in the head. Understanding how phosphenes are produced is crucial, as they form the basis for international safety standards and guidelines for both workers and the general population.

Models of cardiomyocyte–non‐myocyte electrical interactions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cardiomyocyte–non‐myocyte (CM–NM) electrotonic coupling. Left: conceptual contact‐based interactions between CM and other NM via connexin (Cx) proteins. Three basic scenarios are proposed: (i) ‘zero‐sided coupling’ where there are no electrical connections between CM and NM, (ii) ‘single‐sided coupling’ where NM are connected to ...
