bamdit: An R Package for Bayesian Meta-Analysis of Diagnostic Test Data

Journal of Statistical Software, 2018
In this paper we present the R package bamdit. The name of the package stands for "Bayesian meta-analysis of diagnostic test data". bamdit was developed with the aim of simplifying the use of models in meta-analysis, that up to now have demanded great ...

Model-Checking Hierarchical Structures [PDF]

20th Annual IEEE Symposium on Logic in Computer Science (LICS' 05), 2006
Hierarchical graph definitions allow a modular description of graphs using modules for the specification of repeated substructures. Beside this modularity, hierarchical graph definitions also allow to specify graphs of exponential size using polynomial size descriptions.

A light‐triggered Time‐Resolved X‐ray Solution Scattering (TR‐XSS) workflow with application to protein conformational dynamics

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Time‐resolved X‐ray solution scattering captures how proteins change shape in real time under near‐native conditions. This article presents a practical workflow for light‐triggered TR‐XSS experiments, from data collection to structural refinement. Using a calcium‐transporting membrane protein as an example, the approach can be broadly applied to study ...

Accurately Estimating Correlations Between Demographic Parameters: A Response to Riecke Et al. (2024)

Ecology and Evolution
Correlations between annual recovery and survival probabilities estimated from tag‐recovery data have been used to quantify the demographic response of exploited populations to harvest. Deane et al.

A Novel Approach to Improve the Estimation of a Diet Adherence Considering Seasonality and Short Term Variability – The NU-AGE Mediterranean Diet Experience

Frontiers in Physiology, 2019
In this work we present a novel statistical approach to improve the assessment of the adherence to a 1-year nutritional intervention within the framework of the NU-AGE project. This was measured with a single adherence score based on 7-days food records,

Why human connection is the true metric of research success

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Human‐centred mentorship can be shaped by mentor attributes, actions, intrinsic drive and career ambition. Drawing on reflections across Singapore and France, as well as workshop insights from FEBS‐IUBMB ENABLE 2024, this article shows that human‐centred mentorship creates the conditions for sustainable growth, well‐being and retention in research ...

Morphological variance in cave and surface populations of Asellus aquaticus challenges the fluctuating selection and greater male variability hypotheses

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution
IntroductionFluctuating selection, the changes in the strength and/or direction of natural selection stemming from fine-scale spatio-temporal environmental variation, is a fundamental, yet rarely tested explanation for the maintenance of phenotypic ...

Effects of camera‐trap placement and number on detection of members of a mammalian assemblage

Ecosphere, 2021
A central goal in camera‐trapping (CT) studies is to maximize detection probability and precision of occupancy estimates while minimizing the number of CTs to reduce equipment and labor costs.

Early‐life high‐fat diet exposure increases Achilles tendon stiffness and induces transcriptomic alterations

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Early‐life exposure to a high‐fat diet altered intact Achilles tendons in rat offspring, making them thinner, stiffer, and molecularly distinct even without injury. These findings suggest that developmental high‐fat diet exposure may impair tendon quality and increase susceptibility to mechanical overload or tendon injury later in life.
