What drives animal responses to high severity fire? The role of functional traits

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fire regimes are changing worldwide, with increases in the frequency, extent, and severity of fires posing growing risks to biodiversity. Fire severity – the degree of habitat alteration following fire – strongly influences both immediate survival and long‐term recovery of fauna.

Thresholds: The metaphorical foundations of powerful knowledge

open access: yesThe Curriculum Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper advances a theoretical account of threshold concepts as metaphorical‐relational structures that reorganise meaning across contexts. Building on conceptual metaphor theory, we propose that threshold concepts can be understood as sites of schema‐level reorganisation: deep, embodied patterns of relational logic that scaffold abstract ...

Epigenetic Markers of Cell Division and Ageing in Relation to Breast Cancer Survival

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer remains a major challenge to public health. Biomarkers may be useful to improve prediction of breast cancer survival. Several epigenetic markers of cell division and ageing based on DNA methylation have been proposed. In this study, we measured these epigenetic markers in breast tumours and assessed their prognostic value.

Optimal Selection of the Effective Echo Time (TEeff) for T2‐Weighted Fast‐Spin‐Echo MRI of the Prostate at 3.0 T: Effect on Lesion Conspicuity

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Clinical T2‐weighted (T2W) MRI of prostate cancer (PCa) usually implements a 2D fast‐spin‐echo (FSE) sequence, but understanding the echo‐time‐dependent contrast behavior is not straightforward due to the complicated FSE signal evolution.

Shaping Manager Well‐Being and Functioning in Declining Nonprofit Organizations: The Critical Role of Strategy Implementation

open access: yesNonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Under the roof of Christian churches in Central Europe, some nonprofit organizations (NPOs) grow, while others are in marked decline. Our study in this context extends a previous focus on financial indicators to NPO managers' experiences, their role clarity and job satisfaction, during phases of organizational growth and decline. Specifically,
