Beyond the Buzzword: Unpacking ‘Special Needs’ in Denmark

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Disability Research
The term ‘special needs’ encompasses various definitions of what is considered ‘special’ for children with functional variations. These definitions reflect societal views shaped by politics, economics, governance, and knowledge, all of which ...

Designing Cyclic Universe Models [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review Letters, 2004
Recent advances in understanding the propagation of perturbations through the transition from big crunch to big bang (esp. Tolley et al. hep-th/0306109) make it possible for the first time to consider the full set of phenomenological constraints on the scalar field potential in cyclic models of the universe.

Analysis of the Application of Universal Design Standards to Interior-Architecture Design [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
A lot of research shows the findings of cases of public facilities that are not accessible to people with disabilities and see the importance of a design especially in the field of architecture-interior that is able to produce a user-friendly and barrier-

YourMOOC4all: a MOOCs inclusive design and useful feedback research project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
User feedback can be of great value for the development of guidelines to design MOOC platforms, courses, and open educational resources. Considering other learners’ experiences may benefit the development of course recommender systems that consider not ...

β‐TrCP overexpression enhances cisplatin sensitivity by depleting BRCA1

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low levels of β‐TrCP (Panel A) allow the accumulation of BRCA1 and CtIP, which facilitate the repair of cisplatin‐induced DNA damage via homologous recombination (HR) and promote tumor cell survival. In contrast, high β‐TrCP expression (Panel B) leads to BRCA1 and CtIP degradation, impairing HR repair, resulting in persistent DNA damage and apoptosis ...

(De)signs for dignity

open access: yesTransactions of the Association of European Schools of Planning, 2020
In spite of regulations aimed at ensuring that all people can enter and move through spaces, the need to create physical solutions that do not separate or segregate disabled populations has been overlooked.

Zerotree design for image compression: toward weighted universal zerotree coding [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
We consider the problem of optimal, data-dependent zerotree design for use in weighted universal zerotree codes for image compression. A weighted universal zerotree code (WUZC) is a data compression system that replaces the single, data-independent ...

A Theory of Cheap Control in Embodied Systems

open access: yes, 2014
We present a framework for designing cheap control architectures for embodied agents. Our derivation is guided by the classical problem of universal approximation, whereby we explore the possibility of exploiting the agent's embodiment for a new and more

Accessibility of Tourism Space from a Geographical Perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The accessibility of tourism space is becoming an increasingly significant issue in geographical research due to, amongst other things, demographic changes (an ageing population, growing numbers of people with disabilities) alongside guaranteeing a ...

Modeling hepatic fibrosis in TP53 knockout iPSC‐derived human liver organoids

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This study developed iPSC‐derived human liver organoids with TP53 gene knockout to model human liver fibrosis. These organoids showed elevated myofibroblast activation, early disease markers, and advanced fibrotic hallmarks. The use of profibrotic differentiation medium further amplified the fibrotic signature seen in the organoids.
