Quantifying the anisotropy and tortuosity of permeable pathways in clay-rich mudstones using models based on X-ray tomography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The permeability of shales is important, because it controls where oil and gas resources can migrate to and where in the Earth hydrocarbons are ultimately stored.

Beyond Kahoot! Reflections and guidelines from a serial gamifying educator on when and how to effectively use games and game elements in anatomical education

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract According to Nietzsche, “In every real [adult], a child is hidden that wants to play.” In everyday life, playfulness and competition can make routine or dull tasks more engaging and can offer educators opportunities to engage a learner in a more entertaining or interactive manner.
