Synthesis, Characterization and Photophysical Properties of a New Family of Rare-earth Cluster-based Metal-organic Frameworks

Author(s): Bicalho HA; Copeman C; Barbosa HP; Donnarumma PR; Davis Z; Quezada-Novoa V; Velazquez-Garcia JJ; Liu N; Hemmer E; Howarth AJ;

In this work, nine new rare-earth metal-organic frameworks (RE-MOFs, where RE = Lu(III), Yb(III), Tm(III), Er(III), Ho(III), Dy(III), Tb(III), Gd(III), and Eu(III)) isostructural to Zr-MOF-808 are synthesized, characterized, and studied regarding their photophysical properties. Materials with hig ...

Robustness and evolvability: Revisited, redefined and applied

Author(s): Kharma N; Bédard-Couture R;

Building on and extending existing definitions of robustness and evolvability, we propose and utilize new formal definitions, with matching measures, of robustness and evolvability of systems with genotypes and corresponding phenotypes. We explain and show how these measures are more general and more representative of the concepts they stand for, than the ...

Validating a Pragmatic Measure of Evidence-Based Practice (EBP) Delivery: Therapist Reports of EBP Strategy Delivery and Associations with Child Outcome Trajectories

Author(s): Lau AS; Lind T; Cox J; Motamedi M; Lui JHL; Chlebowski C; Flores A; Diaz D; Roesch S; Brookman-Frazee L;

Pragmatic measures of evidence-based practice (EBP) implementation can support and evaluate implementation efforts. We examined the predictive validity of therapist reports of EBP strategy delivery for children's mental health outcomes. Data were obtained from 1,380 sessions with 248 children ...

Cortical-subcortical interactions underlie processing of auditory predictions measured with 7T fMRI

Author(s): Ara A; Provias V; Sitek K; Coffey EBJ; Zatorre RJ;

Perception integrates both sensory inputs and internal models of the environment. In the auditory domain, predictions play a critical role because of the temporal nature of sounds. However, the precise contribution of cortical and subcortical structures in these processes and their interaction remain unclear. It is also unclear whether these brain interac ...

The perceived social support of parents having bipolar disorder impacts their children's mental health: a 10-year longitudinal study

Author(s): Trespalacios F; Boyle A; Serravalle L; Hodgins S; Ellenbogen MA;

Background: The offspring of parents with bipolar disorder (OBD) are at higher risk of developing psychopathology than the offspring of parents with no affective disorder (control). In addition to genetic predisposition, childhood adversity and a stressful family environment are important risk factors for the OBD. Protective factors in parents, such as so ...

Music reward sensitivity is associated with greater information transfer capacity within dorsal and motor white matter networks in musicians

Author(s): Matthews TE; Lumaca M; Witek MAG; Penhune VB; Vuust P;

There are pronounced differences in the degree to which individuals experience music-induced pleasure which are linked to variations in structural connectivity between auditory and reward areas. However, previous studies exploring the link between white matter structure and music reward sensitivity (MRS) have relied on standard diffusion tensor imaging me ...

Quebec-based parents' concerns regarding their children's multilingual development

Author(s): Quirk E; Brouillard M; Ahooja A; Ballinger S; Polka L; Byers-Heinlein K; Kircher R;

Many parents express concerns for their children's multilingual development, yet little is known about the nature and strength of these concerns - especially among parents in multilingual societies. This pre-registered, questionnaire-based study addresses this gap by examining the concerns of 821 Quebec-based parents raising infants and toddlers aged ...

Intrinsic structural covariation links cerebellum subregions to the cerebral cortex

Author(s): Wang Z; Diedrichsen J; Saltoun K; Steele C; Arnold-Anteraper SR; Yeo BTT; Schmahmann JD; Bzdok D;

The human cerebellum is increasingly recognized to be involved in non-motor and higher-order cognitive functions. Yet, its ties with the entire cerebral cortex have not been holistically studied in a whole-brain exploration with a unified analytical framework. Here, we characterized dissociable c ...
