Ethics, space, and somatic sensibilities: comparing relationships between scientific researchers and their human and animal experimental subjects [PDF]

, 2011
Drawing on geographies of affect and nature-society relations, we propose a radical rethinking of how scientists, social scientists, and regulatory agencies conceptualise human and animal participants in scientif ic research. The scientific rationale for

Animating human athletics

Proceedings of the 22nd annual conference on Computer graphics and interactive techniques - SIGGRAPH '95, 1995
This paper describes algorithms for the animation of men and women performing three dynamic athletic behaviors: running, bicycling, and vaulting. We animate these behaviors using control algorithms that cause a physically realistic model to perform the desired maneuver.

Antibiotic quality and use practices amongst dairy farmers and drug retailers in central Kenyan highlands

Scientific Reports, 2023
Understanding antibiotic use in dairy systems is critical to guide antimicrobial stewardship programs. We investigated antibiotic use practices in small-holder dairy farms, antibiotic quality, and antimicrobial resistance (AMR) awareness among veterinary

Matrisome, innervation and oxidative metabolism affected in older compared with younger males with similar physical activity

Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Background Due to the interaction between skeletal muscle ageing and lifestyle factors, it is often challenging to attribute the decline in muscle mass and quality to either changes in lifestyle or to advancing age itself.

Veterinary Medicine Needs New Green Antimicrobial Drugs [PDF]

, 2016
Given that: (1) the worldwide consumption of antimicrobial drugs (AMDs) used in food-producing animals will increase over the coming decades; (2) the prudent use of AMDs will not suffice to stem the rise in human antimicrobial resistance (AMR) of animal ...

Mitochondrial and glycolytic extracellular flux analysis optimization for isolated pig intestinal epithelial cells

Scientific Reports, 2021
Intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) are crucial to maintain intestinal function and the barrier against the outside world. To support their function they rely on energy production, and failure to produce enough energy can lead to IEC malfunction and thus ...
