The Hare and the Tortoise in Ecological L2 Learning: Distributed Practice Effects in Vocabulary and Grammar

TESOL Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Research on the distributed practice effect, that is the impact of different intervals between learning sessions, has investigated both intentional and incidental learning of second language vocabulary and grammar targets. This research is complex and has produced conflicting findings: whereas robust effects have been shown for intentional ...

Water Use Behavior of Individual Birds: Ring Ouzels in an Arid High‐Mountain Ecosystem

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Water is a limiting resource for birds in arid ecosystems. Individual birds differ strongly in how they use shared water sources, with drinking behavior increasing with temperature. Behavioral differences, hierarchy, and social context ultimately shape unequal access to water within the population. ABSTRACT Water availability strongly constrains animal

cis-Urocanic acid attenuates acute dextran sodium sulphate-induced intestinal inflammation.

PLoS ONE, 2010
On exposure to sunlight, urocanic acid (UCA) in the skin is converted from trans to the cis form and distributed systemically where it confers systemic immunosuppression.

Long non‐coding RNAs at the crossroads of inflammation, cancer and angiogenesis: Molecular mechanisms and their potential as therapeutic targets

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs), a broad class of non‐protein‐coding RNAs, are characterized as new regulators of gene expression at the epigenetic, transcriptional, and post‐transcriptional level. Thus, lncRNAs are involved in the regulation of physiological processes and the development of human diseases and cancer by modulating proinflammatory ...

Widening Participation in Dentistry: A Quantitative Study of Changing Demographics at a South West UK Dental School (2014–2021)

European Journal of Dental Education, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Access to National Health Service (NHS) dental care in the UK, particularly in rural and coastal regions such as the South West, remains a significant concern. Increasing socio‐economic diversity in the dental workforce has previously been reported to improve access to care in underserved areas.

Modelling relationships between juvenile brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) density and landscape characteristics: Integration of electrofishing data and spatial data to assess population status

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) are ecologically and economically important, but like many salmonids their populations are declining. Trout exhibit a high level of phenotypic plasticity, ranging from freshwater residency to anadromy. This complexity causes problems for assessment and constrains application of adult catch‐based assessment methods

Optimal Design of Uniform Circular Antenna Array in mmWave LOS MIMO Channel

IEEE Access, 2018
The capacity of millimeter-wave (mmWave) line-of-sight (LOS) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channel can be reduced due to the absence of rich scattering.
