Maternal investment, life histories, and the costs of brain growth in mammals
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Barton, R. A., & Capellini, I. Maternal investment, life histories, and the costs of brain growth in mammals

Brain size variation in mammals correlates with life histories: larger-brained species have longer gestations, mature later, and have increased lifespans. These patterns have been explained in terms of developmental costs (larger brains take longer t... Read More about Maternal investment, life histories, and the costs of brain growth in mammals.

Serum proteomic profiling reveals that pretreatment complement protein levels are predictive of esophageal cancer patient response to neoadjuvant chemoradiation
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maher, S. G., McDowell, D. T., Collins, B. C., Muldoon, C., Gallagher, W. M., & Reynolds, J. V. Serum proteomic profiling reveals that pretreatment complement protein levels are predictive of esophageal cancer patient response to neoadjuvant chemoradiation

OBJECTIVE: To identify serum-based biomarkers predicting response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy (neo-CRT) in esophageal cancer. PURPOSE: Increasingly, the standard of care for esophageal cancer involves neo-CRT followed by surgery. The identificat...

Fish assemblages in different shallow water habitats of the Venice Lagoon
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Franco, A., Franzoi, P., Malavasi, S., Riccato, F., & Torricelli, P. Fish assemblages in different shallow water habitats of the Venice Lagoon

The small-sized fish assemblages of the Venice Lagoon were investigated and compared among five shallow subtidal habitats (seagrass beds, sparsely vegetated habitats, unvegetated sand bottoms, mudflats and saltmarsh creeks) in the Northern lagoon bas...

Use of the dynalearn learning environment by naïve student modelers: Implications for automated support
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Noble, R., & Bredeweg, B. Use of the dynalearn learning environment by naïve student modelers: Implications for automated support

This paper shows that naïve students will require coaching to overcome the difficulties they face in identifying the important concepts to be modeled, and understanding the causal meta-vocabulary needed for conceptual models. The results of this stud... Read More about Use of the dynalearn learning environment by naïve student modelers: Implications for automated support.
