The development of gaze following in monolingual and bilingual infants: A multi-laboratory study.

Author(s): Byers-Heinlein K, Tsui RK, van Renswoude D, Black AK, Barr R, Brown A, Colomer M, Durrant S, Gampe A, Gonzalez-Gomez N, Hay JF, Hernik M, Jartó M, Kovács ÁM, Laoun-Rubenstein A, Lew-Williams C, Liszkowski U, Liu L, Noble C, Potter CE, ...

Determining the meanings of words requires language learners to attend to what other people say. However, it behooves a young language learner to simultaneously encode relevant non-verbal cues, for example, by following the direction of their eye gaze. Sensitivity to cues such as eye gaze might ...

Randomness, Informational Entropy, and Volatility Interdependencies among the Major World Markets: The Role of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Author(s): Lahmiri S; Bekiros S;

The main purpose of our paper is to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on randomness in volatility series of world major markets and to examine its effect on their interconnections. The data set includes equity (Bitcoin and Standard and Poor's 500), precious metals (Gold and Silver), and energy markets (West Texas Instruments, Brent, and G ...

Thermal properties of lipid bilayers derived from the transient heating regime of upconverting nanoparticles

Author(s): Bastos ARN; Brites CDS; Rojas-Gutierrez PA; Ferreira RAS; Longo RL; DeWolf C; Capobianco JA; Carlos LD;

Heat transfer and thermal properties at the nanoscale can be challenging to obtain experimentally. These are potentially relevant for understanding thermoregulation in cells. Experimental data from the transient heating regime in conjunction with a model based on the energy conservation enable ...

Deletion of the Aspergillus niger Pro-Protein Processing Protease Gene kexB Results in a pH-Dependent Morphological Transition during Submerged Cultivations and Increases Cell Wall Chitin Content.

Author(s): van Leeuwe TM, Arentshorst M, Forn-Cuní G, Geoffrion N, Tsang A, Delvigne F, Meijer AH, Ram AFJ, Punt PJ

There is a growing interest in the use of post-fermentation mycelial waste to obtain cell wall chitin as an added-value product. In the pursuit to identify suitable production strains that can be used for post-fermentation cell wall harvesting, we turned to an Aspergillus niger strain in which ...

Evaluating the correlation between genome-wide diversity and the release of plastic phenotypic variation in experimental translocations to novel natural environments.

Author(s): Yates MC, Fraser DJ

Phenotypic reaction norms are often shaped and constrained by selection and are important for allowing organisms to respond to environmental change. However, selection cannot constrain reaction norms for environmental conditions that populations have not experienced. This may allow cryptic neutral genetic variation for the reaction norm to accumulate su ...

Exploration of nanocellulose washing agent for the green remediation of phenanthrene-contaminated soil.

Author(s): Yin J, Huang G, An C, Zhang P, Xin X, Feng R

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are hazardous contaminants existing ubiquitously in polluted soil. In this study, using nanocellulose (CNC) fluid as an eco-friendly agent was proposed for the first time in the remediation of phenanthrene (PHE) contaminated soil. The effects of environmental factors on the mobilization of PHE in soil by CNC nanofluid wa ...

File-based localization of numerical perturbations in data analysis pipelines.

Author(s): Salari A, Kiar G, Lewis L, Evans AC, Glatard T

BACKGROUND: Data analysis pipelines are known to be affected by computational conditions, presumably owing to the creation and propagation of numerical errors. While this process could play a major role in the current reproducibility crisis, the precise causes of such instabilities and the path along which they propagate in pipelines are unclear. METHOD ...

Genome Sequence Resource of Bacillus velezensis EB14, a native endophytic bacterial strain with biocontrol potential against the poplar stem canker causative pathogen, Sphaerulina musiva.

Author(s): Naik S, Tsang A, Ramanan US, Dayanandan S

Bacillus velezensis EB14, isolated from a leaf of Populus ? jackii, possesses antagonistic activity against Sphaerulina musiva, a fungal pathogen of Populus sp. that causes leaf spots and stem cankers on Poplars limiting the utility of hybrid poplars as plantation trees. We sequenced the genome of B. velezensis EB14 to gain insights into the underlying ...

Synthesis of 2,5-Diaryl Nonsymmetric Furans C6-Platform Chemicals via Catalytic Conversion of Biomass and the Formal Synthesis of Dantrolene.

Author(s): Chacón-Huete F, Lasso JD, Szavay P, Covone J, Forgione P

Biomass-derived commodity chemical 5-hydroxymethyl furfural is an underutilized C6-platform chemical derived from cellulose that is ideal to prepare next-generation value-added products. We have developed an efficient synthetic strategy to access 2,5-diaryl nonsymmetric furans from 5-hydroxymethyl furfural utilizing decarboxylative cross-couplings. A ke ...

Empirically Derived Profiles of Health-Related Quality of Life in Youth and Young Adults with Sickle Cell Disease.

Author(s): Keenan ME, Loew M, Berlin KS, Hodges J, Alberts NM, Hankins JS, Porter JS

OBJECTIVE: Determining how the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) is impacted by living with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD) can inform psychosocial interventions. The purpose of the present study is to determine if demographic and treatment variables predict membership into empirically derived subgroups of HRQOL among youth and young adults with SCD. MET ...

Source imaging of deep-brain activity using the regional spatiotemporal Kalman filter

Author(s): Hamid L; Habboush N; Stern P; Japaridze N; Aydin Ü; Wolters CH; Claussen JC; Heute U; Stephani U; Galka A; Siniatchkin M;

Background and objective: The human brain displays rich and complex patterns of interaction within and among brain networks that involve both cortical and subcortical brain regions. Due to the limited spatial resolution of surface electroencephalography (EEG), EEG source imaging is used to reco ...
