Understanding earwig phenology in top fruit orchards [PDF]

, 2008
Earwigs, Forficula auricularia, are key generalist predators to a variety of orchard pests. However, numbers of earwigs have declined in both organic and IPM orchards in recent years. Both Integrated and Organic fruit growers have tried to re-establish

Impermeability effects in three-dimensional vesicles

, 2004
We analyse the effects that the impermeability constraint induces on the equilibrium shapes of a three-dimensional vesicle hosting a rigid inclusion. A given alteration of the inclusion and/or vesicle parameters leads to shape modifications of different ...

Digital diagnostics, biomarkers and therapeutics in an evolving healthcare system: From promise to practice

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Health care is shifting towards a digital‐guided system, integrating digital diagnostics, biomarkers and therapeutics in many care pathways. However, despite rapid technological advancement and preliminary adoption accelerated by the COVID‐19 pandemic, a significant implementation gap persists. This narrative review explores the causes of this

Hard Spheres in Vesicles: Curvature-Induced Forces and Particle-Induced Curvature [PDF]

, 1997
We explore the interplay of membrane curvature and nonspecific binding due to excluded-volume effects among colloidal particles inside lipid bilayer vesicles. We trapped submicron spheres of two different sizes inside a pear-shaped, multilamellar vesicle

‘It is not a topic that should be assessed by a test’: Understanding teachers' assessment literacy in the teaching of ‘difficult histories’ such as the Holocaust

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores how history teachers in secondary education in England (a) see their role as assessors and (b) how they make decisions about assessing a difficult history: learning about the Holocaust. Assessment literacy (AL) is recognised as a potentially valuable aspect of good teaching and central to supporting students' learning ...
