Who are the ‘gatekeepers’?: in continuation of the debate on direct applicability and direct effect of EU international agreements (2018)
Journal Article

The article revisits the debate on direct applicability and direct effect of EU international agreements by questioning the role of the so called gatekeepers. It considers the established role of the Court of Justice of the EU as the gatekeeper of th...

Genome-wide mapping of the RNA targets of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa riboregulatory protein RsmN (2018)
Journal Article

Pseudomonads typically carry multiple non-identical alleles of the post-transcriptional regulator rsmA. In P. aeruginosa, RsmN is notable in that its structural rearrangement confers distinct and overlapping functions with RsmA. However, little is k...

Root gravitropism: quantification, challenges, and solutions (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC. Better understanding of root traits such as root angle and root gravitropism will be crucial for development of crops with improved resource use efficiency. This chapter describes a high-throughput, autom... Read More about Root gravitropism: quantification, challenges, and solutions.

Direct observation of vibrational energy dispersal: Via methyl torsions (2018)
Journal Article

© 2018 The Royal Society of Chemistry. Explicit evidence for the role of methyl rotor levels in promoting energy dispersal is reported. A set of coupled zero-order vibration/vibration-torsion (vibtor) levels in the S1 state of para-fluorotoluene (pFT...

A switched-capacitor bidirectional DC-DC converter with wide voltage gain range for electric vehicles with hybrid energy sources (2018)
Journal Article

A switched-capacitor bidirectional DC-DC converter with a high step-up/step-down voltage gain is proposed for electric vehicles (EVs) with a hybrid energy source system (HESS). The converter presented has the advantages of being a simple circuit, a r...

Journal Article

“Good housekeeping”? Re-assessing John Stuart Mill’s position on the gendered division of labour (2018)
Journal Article

This paper considers an oft-criticised passage of John Stuart Mill’s The Subjection of Women, arguing that Mill’s position is misunderstood. In this passage, Mill identifies a trilemma facing women in non-ideal circumstances. Two elements of this c... Read More about “Good housekeeping”? Re-assessing John Stuart Mill’s position on the gendered division of labour.

Rethinking risk: a narrative approach (2018)
Journal Article

Purpose The assessment and management of risk is central to contemporary mental health practice. The emergence of recovery has contributed to demands for more service user centered approaches to risk. This paper examines the potential of narrative...

Associative mechanisms involved in specific Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT) in human learning tasks (2018)
Journal Article

Four experiments compared the effect of forward and backward conditioning procedures on the ability of conditioned stimuli (CSs) to elevate instrumental responding in a Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT) task. Two responses were each trained wi... Read More about Associative mechanisms involved in specific Pavlovian-to-instrumental transfer (PIT) in human learning tasks.

The effects of stimulus distribution form during trace conditioning (2018)
Journal Article

Three experiments examined the effect of the distribution form of the trace interval on trace conditioning. In Experiments 1 and 2 two groups of rats were conditioned to a fixed duration CS in a trace interval procedure; rats in Group Fix received a...

Age and growth rate estimations of the commercially fished gastropod Buccinum undatum (2018)
Journal Article

Calculating age and growth rate for the commercially important whelk, Buccinum undatum in the aid of fishery management has historically been undertaken using growth rings on the organic operculum. This is difficult due to their poor readability and... Read More about Age and growth rate estimations of the commercially fished gastropod Buccinum undatum.
