Capacity building needed to reap the benefits of access to biodiversity collections

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global conservation efforts increasingly depend on digitised natural history collections, yet the benefits of this digital data are not equally shared. We analysed biodiversity specimens and citation data from Montserrat and the Cayman Islands to assess who collected these specimens, how they are used, and by whom.

Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Digitisation as archival intermediary: Quantifying and qualifying Greta B. Stevenson's mycological collector networks

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Mass digitisation of natural science collections and archives has increasingly become a priority for scientific heritage institutions. Here, we explore the potential of mass digitisation to improve our understanding of the nature and history of scientific collaboration. Focusing on mycologist Greta B.

Genomic and Clinical Impact of Smoking on Therapeutic Outcomes in Prostate Cancer: A Public Databases Analysis

The Prostate, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background In prostate cancer (PCa), smoking history is associated with more aggressive clinicopathological features, reduced efficacy of androgen deprivation therapy, and poorer overall survival (OS). However, its impact on survival outcomes in patients receiving taxane chemotherapy, poly ADP‐ribose polymerase inhibitor (PARPi), or immune ...

Biomolecular Interaction Prediction in the Pre‐ and Post‐AlphaFold Era: The 8th CAPRI Evaluation

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report on the 8th CAPRI Evaluation period, capturing the assessment of CAPRI Rounds 47 to 55 (excluding the CASP and COVID‐related Rounds), which have witnessed the transition to AI‐driven prediction tools such as AlphaFold and related alternatives. The prediction Rounds in this evaluation are characterized by a high level of difficulty due

Teachers' Customizations of Storyline Science Curriculum: Adapting for Their Students and Instructional Contexts

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Curriculum materials can play an essential role to help teachers shift their instruction. However, curricular enactment does not look identical in every classroom, because teachers need to be responsive to their students. In this study, we investigated the customizations teachers made while enacting storyline science curriculum.

Separating Interleaved Notebooks

International Scholastic Journal of Science
It is well known that bound books with interleaved pages can be difficult to separate because of frictional forces. In this work a theoretical model is developed for a special case: the force required to separate horizontally oriented spiral bound ...

Collective (Un)Learning: A Self‐Examination of Science Teacher Educators' Evolving Translanguaging Pedagogy for Eliciting and Elevating Student Ideas

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study centers the idea that it is not just what science teacher educators (STEs) teach, but how they teach it, that matters. To prepare future teachers who can enact more equitable and transformative reform‐oriented science instruction with multilingual learners, research must explore what STEs are doing, and how, to develop preservice ...

Students’ Experiences of Teachers’ Ways of Unpacking Visual Representations in the Context of Intermolecular Forces

Science Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This is the third article in a series, emanating from a project that used social semiotics and phenomenography to explore the role visual representations play in the teaching and learning of chemistry. Building on our earlier work that identified five qualitatively different ways that teachers may use to unpack visual representations in their ...
