Navigating public health research in UK secondary schools: key challenges and opportunities identified by researchers

Abstract Objective Conducting health research with adolescents involves navigating complex challenges at both organisational and individual levels. As part of evaluating the EACH-B (Engaging Adolescents with Changing Behaviour) intervention...

Institutional and Social Issues Surrounding Genetic Counselors in Japan: Current Challenges and Implications for the Global Community

In recent years, genetic counseling has started playing a major role in the field of genomic medicine. There are currently about 7,000 genetic counselors in more than 28 countries, with 267 certified genetic counselors in Japan alone (about...

Postbiotics in Functional Foods: Preparation-Based Characterization, Gut–Brain Axis Interactions, and Translational Perspectives

Postbiotics are defined as preparations of inanimate microorganisms and/or their components that confer a health benefit on the host. Although interest in postbiotics has increased substantially, their translational use in functional foods ...

Mapping Customer Relationship Management Research in Higher Education: Trends and Future Directions

Customer relationship management (CRM) has become a critical strategy for higher education institutions (HEIs) to enhance student engagement, institutional efficiency, and digital transformation. Despite its growing adoption, the evolution ...

A SCIENTOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF THE EMERGING TOPICS IN GENERAL COMPUTER SCIENCE

Citations have been an acceptable journal performance metric used by many indexing databases for inclusion and discontinuation of journals in their list. Therefore, editorial teams must maintain their journal performance by increasing artic...

Practical Recommendations for Supporting a Systems Biology Cyberinfrastructure

Projects in the life sciences continue to increase in complexity as they scale to answer deeper and more diverse questions. They employ technologies that generate increasingly large ‘omic’ datasets and research teams regularly include exper...

Multi‐antenna joint covert communication with a public communication link over wireless fading channel

Abstract This paper studies multi‐antenna covert communication exploiting a public communication link over the wireless fading channel. In particular, a relatively practical covert communication scenario is considered for the first time, wh...

MAPPING RICE CROPPING SYSTEM IN THE LOWER GANGETIC PLAIN USING LANDASAT 8 (OLI) AND MODIS IMAGERY

The Indo-Gangetic basin is one of the productive rice growing areas in South-East Asia. Within this extensive flat fertile land, lower Gangetic basin, especially the south Bengal, is most intensively cultivated. In this study we map the ric...

Prevention of Morbidity in Sickle Cell Disease (POMS2a)—overnight auto-adjusting continuous positive airway pressure compared with nocturnal oxygen therapy: a randomised crossover pilot study examining patient preference and safety in adults and children

Abstract Design This randomised crossover trial compared nocturnal auto-adjusting continuous positive airway pressure (APAP) and nocturnal oxygen therapy (NOT) in adults and children with sickle cell anaemia, with patient acceptability as t...

Parallel imaging of Drosophila embryos for quantitative analysis of genetic perturbations of the Ras pathway

The Ras pathway patterns the poles of the Drosophila embryo by downregulating the levels and activity of a DNA-binding transcriptional repressor Capicua (Cic). We demonstrate that the spatiotemporal pattern of Cic during this signaling even...

The Global Forest Fire Emissions Prediction System version 1.0

The Global Forest Fire Emissions Prediction System (GFFEPS) is a model that estimates biomass burning in near-real time for global air quality forecasting. The model uses a bottom-up approach, based on remotely sensed hotspot locations, and...

Analysis of groundwater and surface water quality using modelled water index and multivariate statistics in Kampala and Mbarara Districts, Uganda

Abstract The demand for domestic, public and industrial use of water increases with population growth. However, activities from humans and natural environment have resulted into decline in water quality. The aim of this study was to evaluat...

Citation Statistics

This is a report about the use and misuse of citation data in the assessment of scientific research.The idea that research assessment must be done using "simple and objective" methods is increasingly prevalent today.The "simple and objectiv...

LINKING PERFORMANCE WITH SUSTAINABILITY IN PUBLIC UNIVERSITIES. THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK AND BIBLIOMETRIC ANALYSIS

Linking university performance to sustainability is possible through the university’s third mission: environmental responsibility.  To better understand the concepts, practices and challenges of sustainability, the role of literature is cru...

A Game—Theoretic Model for a Stochastic Linear Quadratic Tracking Problem

In this paper, we solve a stochastic linear quadratic tracking problem. The controlled dynamical system is modeled by a system of linear Itô differential equations subject to jump Markov perturbations. We consider the case when there are tw...
