Community music, identity and belonging among Dutchies in Australia: Comparing assimilation to multiculturalism

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
Abstract This article discusses variations in the experiences of Dutch identity and belonging to a music‐making group in the Dutch migrant community in Melbourne, Australia. It answers the research question “Which variations of ‘Dutch identity’ are there for the participants and how does music‐making relate to this?”. Feelings of identity and belonging

A long-term decline in the abundance of endangered leatherback turtles, Dermochelys coriacea, at a foraging ground in the California Current Ecosystem

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020
Pacific leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) are critically endangered, and declines have been documented at multiple nesting sites throughout the Pacific. The western Pacific leatherback forages in temperate and tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific

Cortical synapses of the world's smallest mammal: An FIB/SEM study in the Etruscan shrew

Journal of Comparative Neurology, Volume 531, Issue 3, Page 390-414, February 2023., 2023
The present work provides a quantitative dataset of synapses from the Etruscan shrew (the smallest known terrestrial mammal). We have identified common and differing principles of synaptic organization compared to other mammalian species. Abstract The main aim of the present study was to determine if synapses from the exceptionally small brain of the ...

α‐Amination of 1,3‐Dicarbonyl Compounds and Analogous Reactive Enolate‐Precursors Using Ammonia Under Oxidative Conditions

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, Accepted Article.
We herein introduce a method for the direct a‐amination of different carbonyl compounds by employing aqueous ammonia as the N‐source. Upon using NH3 in combination with hypochlorites as simple oxidants under phase‐transfer catalytic conditions it is possible to carry out the direct a‐amination of reactive enolate‐precursors such as cyclic b‐ketoesters,

Optogenetic control of transgene expression in Marchantia polymorpha

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise The model liverwort Marchantia polymorpha is an emerging testbed species for plant metabolic engineering but lacks well‐characterized inducible promoters, which are necessary to minimize biochemical and physiological disruption when over‐accumulating target products.

Enhancing plant morphological trait identification in herbarium collections through deep learning–based segmentation

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Deep learning has become increasingly important in the analysis of digitized herbarium collections, which comprise millions of scans that provide valuable resources for studying plant evolution and biodiversity. However, leveraging deep learning algorithms to analyze these scans presents significant challenges, partly due to the ...

Early life functional transitions impact craniofacial morphology in osteogenesis imperfecta

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Early life behaviors have a profound role in shaping adult craniofacial morphology. During early life, all mammals undergo the dynamic transition from suckling to mastication, a period coinciding with rapid cranial biomineralization. Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a genetic disorder that impacts the production of type I collagen, disrupts ...

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.
