Fluctuations and remaining bonds: Challenging undynamic fetal personhood through women's experiences of early pregnancy endings in England

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Women's subjective relationship with their pregnancy is central in understanding fetal personhood, a relationship that is theirs to assemble and disassemble. A rigid perception of personhood as either present or absent is problematized, instead revealing an evolving approach.

ABSTRACT Narratives around emotions often foreground remarkable episodes that interrupt situations, producing a “rollercoaster” image of emotional life that leaves its stability underdescribed. To analyze the emotional dimension of social continuity, this article theorizes unmarked emotional states (UES): culturally default, interactionally unobtrusive

Efficient Splitting of Necklaces.

, 2021
We provide efficient approximation algorithms for the Necklace Splitting problem. The input consists of a sequence of beads of n types and an integer k. The objective is to split the necklace, with a small number of cuts made between consecutive beads, and distribute the resulting intervals into k collections so that the discrepancy between the shares ...

String Necklaces and Primordial Black Holes from Type IIB Strings

We consider a model of static cosmic string loops in type IIB string theory, where the strings wrap cycles within the internal space. The strings are not topologically stabilised, however the presence of a lifting potential traps the windings giving rise

Formulation of Peptide‐Based Nanoparticles Using a Microfluidic Device

Journal of Peptide Science, Volume 32, Issue 7, July 2026.
A case study using the TAMARA microfluidic device (Inside Therapeutics) was performed for peptide‐based nanoparticles under different operational parameters such as mixing channel geometry, total flow rate, and flow rate ratio. In this context, WRAP5 cell‐penetrating peptide‐based nanoparticles for siRNA or pDNA delivery demonstrated enhanced ...
