"Even as myself, my very own incontrovertible, unexceptional self, I feel I am disguised" : mimicry, masquerade, and the quest for hybridity in the fiction of Salman Rushdie : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in English at Massey University [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Salman Rushdie's fiction delineates the author's struggle toward an ideal of hybridity that encompasses both individual and nation. The emblematic figure of the migrant plays a large role in Rushdie's oeuvre, demonstrating the process of translation from

Revealing the True Nature of Double‐Peak Emission in 2D Perovskite Single Crystals Using Polariton Waveguides

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
Engineering structural distortion in Dion–Jacobson perovskites allows control over optical properties and electronic band structure, unveiling new structure‐property insights. Crystal microwires act as waveguides with strong light‐matter coupling, explaining the double peak emission.

Bright LaF3:Eu@Ir Phosphors Combining Two‐Photon Excitation, d → f Energy Transfer and Tunable Time‐Gated Chromaticity for Multicolor Cell Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
The surface functionalization of Eu‐doped LaF3 particles with a two‐photon absorbing IrIII complex results in the formation of ultrabright Eu:LaF3 phosphors, which exhibit a combination of short‐lived IrIII and long‐lived EuIII‐sensitized emissions. These Ir/Eu hybrids are effectively internalized by HEK‐293 cells without causing toxic effects, thereby

Emerging Therapeutic Strategies for Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Challenges still exist in treating hearing loss in cases of severe damage to hair cells or spiral ganglion neurons. Here, a schematic diagram of cochlear sensory hair cells and auditory nerves is presented. It is found that in normal Corti organs, hair cells have upright stereocilia at the top and auditory neurons at the base. Ototoxic drugs, noise, or

Lycium barbarum Glycopeptide Alleviates Neomycin‐Induced Ototoxicity by Inhibiting Tryptophan Hydroxylase‐Mediated Serotonin Biosynthesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Lycium barbarum glycopeptide (LBGP), which is further extracted from Lycium barbarum polysaccharides, exhibits significant protective effects against neomycin‐induced hearing dysfunction including oxidative stress in cochlea and loss of key cells in cochlea.

Viral‐Mediated Connexin 26 Expression Combined with Dexamethasone Rescues Hearing in a Conditional Gjb2 Null Mice Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
AAV2.7m8 serotype combined with the gfaABC1D promoter targets infection of supporting cells (SCs). AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 administration to mice results in excessive immune responses. The combination of AAV2.7m8‐gfaABC1D‐Gjb2 with dexamethasone (DEX) shows a synergistic effect and enhances the gene therapy effect in a conditional Cx26 null mice model ...
