From anatomical ‘competence’ to complex capability. The views and experiences of UK tutors on how we should teach anatomy to medical students

Developments in clinical education have recently challenged the identity of anatomy teaching and learning, leading to high profile debate over the potential implications for the competence levels of new doctors. However, the emphasis remains on methods of teaching, rather than a review of what well-rounded anatomical learning actually entails, and how teaching can address contemporary learning needs. This paper identifies and addresses some of these issues, drawing on expert views captured in qualitative research with anatomy tutors at twenty different medical schools in the UK. Three main themes emerging from our analysis are described: anatomy as a subject matter, the challenges of teaching or learning anatomy, and the use of teaching methods. We also detail how inductive analysis generated new hypotheses worthy of further consideration. These fall into two key categories: (1) improving anatomy curriculum design and (2) advancing anatomy education research.
Improved Hurricane Ocean Vector Winds Using SeaWinds Active/Passive Retrievals

The SeaWinds scatterometer, onboard the QuikSCAT satellite, infers global ocean vector winds (OVWs); however, for a number of reasons, these measurements in hurricanes are significantly degraded. This paper presents an improved hurricane OVW retrieval approach, known as Q-Winds, which is derived from combined SeaWinds active and passive measurements. In this technique, the effects of rain are implicitly included in a new geophysical model function, which relates oceanic brightness temperature and radar backscatter measurements (at the top of the atmosphere) to the surface wind vector under both clear sky and in the presence of light to moderate rain. This approach extends the useful wind speed measurement range for tropical cyclones beyond that exhibited by the standard SeaWinds Project Level-2B (L2B) 12.5-km wind vector algorithm. A description of the Q-Winds algorithm is given, and examples of OVW retrievals are presented for the Q-Winds and L2B 12.5-km algorithms for ten hurricane overpasses in 2003-2008. These data are also compared to independent surface wind vector estimates from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Hurricane Research Division's objective hurricane surface wind analysis technique known as H*Wind. These comparisons suggest that the Q-Winds OVW product agrees better with independently derived H^ Wind analysis winds than does the conventional L2B OVW product.
Privacy in opportunistic network contact graphs

Opportunistic networks are formed by people carrying mobile devices with wireless capabilities. When in mutual transmission range, the nodes of such networks use device-to-device communication to automatically exchange data, without requiring fixed infrastructure. To solve challenging opportunistic networking problems like routing, nodes exchange information about whom they have met in the past and form a contact graph, which encodes the social structure of past meetings. This contact graph is then used to assign a utility to each node (e.g., based on their centrality), thereby defining a ranking of the nodes' values for carrying a message. However, while being a useful tool, the contact graph represents a privacy risk to the users, as it allows an attacker to learn about social links. In this paper, we investigate the trade-off of privacy and utility in the contact graph. By transforming the graph through adding and removing edges, we are able to control the amount of link privacy. The evaluation of a greedy approach shows that it maintains the node ranking very well, even if many links are changed.

PROGRESDEC/ ESDP STEPS - Vérification de la mise en oeuvre des stratégies du SDEC à travers l’analyse et l’expérimentation des plans d'aménagement appliqués au niveau local

The operation deals with the following problems: 1) how and to what extent European Spatial Development Perspective (ESDP) strategies are taken into account in land planning and management procedures in local and national contexts; 2) how the sharing of experience in local land management can increase effective implementation of the ESDP. Overall objective / Objectif général The aim of the operation is to carry out a comparison among the European regions on the application of the ESDP principles through the sharing of experiences in regional and local planning and the testing of methods and tools for land planning. Expected results / Résultats attendus Verification will be carried out by means of a comparative analysis of practices adopted by each Member State on a local level. Joint pilot projects will result from the drafting of methodologies comprising different stages. The approach will be to create land management projects from the bottom up but using operating methods that have been studied on a transnational level and that aim to implement the ESDP efficiently.
Spatial Information Systems for Transnational Environmental Management of Pro-tected Areas and Regions in CADSES

Protected cross-border regions in the CADSES area face similar problems. Often frontiers divide one region of cultural and natural heritage into more than one national park, biosphere reserve, nature reserve or protected landscape area and they are situated in two or more countries. As a consequence, two or more administrations, management structures and - if existing - spatial information systems (SIS) are working for these regions. There is urgent need for co-ordination in establishing elaborate monitoring and management schemes in those protected regions, as human activities from one area usually affect the whole region. The increasing demand for transnational planning and management approaches is backed by various European and global initiatives such as FFH of EC, WCM of UNEP-WCMC or the UNESCO World Heritage. These initiatives foster efforts to homogenise documentation of natural heritages as well as the co-operation between administrations of neighbouring countries. The project aims at fostering regional to transnational networks of spatial information systems. The cross-border protected regions of Sächsisch-Böhmische Schweiz (DE/CZ), Neusiedler See-Seewinkel/Fertö-Hanság (AT/HU) and Krkonose/Karkonosze (CZ/PL) 
are the core regions of the project. The transnational approach is open-ended in order to assure the successive integration of additional regions throughout the duration of the project. Partners in the cross-border regions of Triglav/Prealpi Giulie (SI/IT) have already declared their co-operation at that level for example.

Public Finance and the Responsible Factors Coupled With Public Expenditure: Ghana as the Focus

The phrase public expenditure deals with the subject of government activities and their financing. For instance, capital and recurrent expenditures.  The expenditure incurred by public authorities like central, state and local governments to satisfy the collective social wants of the people is what the phrase public expenditure connotes. Public spending is planned to benefit categories of individuals and enterprises irrespective of location, or where locations are prioritized using national criteria. Throughout the 19 th Century, most governments followed laissez faire economic policies and their functions were only restricted to defending aggression and maintaining law and order. The size of public expenditure was very scanty. But now the expenditure of governments all over has significantly increased. In developing countries like Ghana, public expenditure policy not only accelerates economic growth and promotes employment opportunities but also plays a useful role in reducing poverty and inequalities in income distribution. Besides, in the developing parts of the world, there are poor budgeting systems and lack of transparency and accountability always climb the platform of the frowning moments hence underdevelopment. Keywords : Public Finance, Responsible Factors, Public Expenditure, Ghana, Focus.
Taylor vortices in the flow between two coaxial cylinders one of which has a step change in radius

A numerical study of the flow between two coaxial cylinders, where one of the cylinders has a step change in radius, is carried out. The inner cylinder rotates and the outer cylinder is stationary. Computation is restricted to axisymmetric motion since instability in flow between coaxial cylinders is found to first occur in the form of axisymmetric Taylor vortices. In the presence of a step, Taylor vortices are found to appear first in the region where the gap between the cylinders is larger and approximately when the local Taylor number in this region reaches the critical Taylor number for onset of instability. Subsequently, Taylor vortices appear in the region where the gap is narrower, and when the local Taylor number in that region exceeds the critical Taylor number. The Taylor vortices have inward flow at a stationary end plate, and outward flow at an end plate which rotates with the same angular velocity as the inner cylinder. Similar results were obtained by Sprague et al (2008 Phys. Fluids 20 014102) for a step on inner cylinder configuration. The step functions as another end plate, if the step size is large. Whereas, it has no effect, if the step size is small. In most situations, these determine whether the number of Taylor vortices in the wide and narrow gap regions is even or odd. When the end plates rotate synchronously, but at a different speed from the inner cylinder, a change from even to odd or odd to even number of vortices in each region occurs at certain rotation rates of the end plates by sudden appearance or disappearance of a vortex at the end of the column. For a certain range of rotation rates of the end plates, the total number of vortices in the entire fluid column is odd, although the end conditions are symmetrical.
O CALOR DA ARTE NA CULTURA DO FRIO

A relação das cidades com o gênero ainda é frágil, pois ainda é dominada pelos padrões sociais. O que dificulta sua apropriação pelos dissidentes de gênero, impedindo a criação de vínculos de pertencimento: elemento fundamental para o desenvolvimento humano. Em contrapartida a dominância, existe o movimento da cultura alternativa utilizado pelas minorias sociais para equilibrar o direito à cidade. Mas como estas manifestações se comportam na cultura do frio? Este artigo visa compreender como a produção artística das minorias de gênero interferem na urbe. Para o desenvolvimento foi utilizado a revisão bibliográfica, além do estudo das produções artísticas dos dissidentes em Satolep. Os resultados obtidos, revelam que a produção artística interfere positivamente no desenvolvimento da cidade, além de contribuir para a constituição de vínculos com o Poder Público. A arte e a cultura acendem a fagulha do calor dentro da cultura do frio, lançando um futuro promissor para os dissidentes.
Randomized Clinical Trial of Two Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer Materials: 1-year Results

SUMMARY With institutional review board approval, 33 patients who needed restoration of noncarious cervical lesions (NCCL) were enrolled in this study. A total of 92 NCCL were selected and randomly assigned to three groups: (1) Ambar (FGM), a two-step etch-and-rinse adhesive (control), combined with the nanofilled composite resin Filtek Supreme Plus (FSP; 3M ESPE); (2) Fuji II LC (GC America), a traditional resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGIC) restorative material; (3) Ketac Nano (3M ESPE), a nanofilled RMGIC restorative material. Restorations were evaluated at six months and one year using modified United States Public Health Service parameters. At six months after initial placement, 84 restorations (a 91.3% recall rate) were evaluated. At one year, 78 restorations (a 84.8% recall rate) were available for evaluation. The six month and one year overall retention rates were 93.1% and 92.6%, respectively, for Ambar/FSP; 100% and 100%, respectively, for Fuji II LC; and 100% and 100%, respectively, for Ketac Nano with no statistical difference between any pair of groups at each recall. Sensitivity to air decreased for all three adhesive materials from the preoperative to the postoperative stage, but the difference was not statistically significant. For Ambar/FSP, there were no statistical differences for any of the parameters from baseline to six months and from baseline to one year. For Fuji II LC, surface texture worsened significantly from baseline to six months and from baseline to one year. For Ketac Nano, enamel marginal staining increased significantly from baseline to one year and from six months to one year. Marginal adaptation was statistically worse at one year compared with baseline only for Ketac Nano. When parameters were compared for materials at each recall, Ketac Nano resulted in significantly worse color match than any of the other two materials at any evaluation period. At one year, Ketac Nano resulted in significantly worse marginal adaptation than the other two materials and worse marginal staining than Fuji II LC. Surface texture was statistically worse for Fuji II LC compared with the other two materials at all evaluation periods. The one-year retention rate was statistically similar for the three adhesive materials. Nevertheless, enamel marginal deficiencies and color mismatch were more prevalent for Ketac Nano. Surface texture of Fuji II LC restorations deteriorated quickly.
Allosteric modulation of g-protein coupled receptors conformational landscape

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of transmembrane receptors in eukaryotes. They bind a wide range of ligands, such as neurotransmitters, hormones, lipids and many others. GPCRs are the target of more than 30% of the drugs currently on the market, addressing neuropsychiatric, cardiovascular, pulmonary and metabolic disorders, cancer, obesity and AIDS. 
The functional versatility of GPCRs cannot be explained by a simple two-state model of activation considering only an active and an inactive state, as these receptors are highly dynamic and can explore a wide range of conformations. 
Some receptors of the family can signal in the absence of ligand (basal activity), and despite GPCR have been largely studied in the past years, little is known about their signal transduction mechanism. 
Apart from ligands and signalling partners, the structure and function of GPCRs can be modulated by lipids. 
In this context, our research will be divided in two steps: delineating the role of lipids on GPCR conformational landscape at the molecular scale (Aim1) and exploring an additional allosteric factor in line with lipid composition, the homo- and hetero-receptor oligomerisation (Aim2). 
To that purpose, we will apply an integrated, multidisciplinary analysis, to characterize protein dynamics under physiological conditions, with the GPCR reconstituted in model lipid systems or living cells, and in the presence of ligands, signalling and regulatory partners. We will use conformational probes to investigate the effect of lipids and other GPCRs on receptor dynamics, and correlate these findings with functional properties such as agonist binding and G protein coupling.

Excitonic transport in cold rydberg gases

The study of transport phenomenon based on quantum processes, where energy and information are transported but neither charge nor mass, is a vivid and interdisciplinary field of research raising both fundamental and technological issues.
During this fellowship, we propose to use laser-cooled ensembles of atoms in highly excited states (cold Rydberg gases) to study such transport phenomenon.
The overall purpose of the action is to demonstrate that cold Rydberg gases can be used as an innovative, efficient research platform which would allow to further address fundamental challenges related to the transport of energy and information.\\
The principal objective of this project is to form a chain of Rydberg atoms, to locally place an additional electronic excitation (exciton) in the chain and to observe the subsequent transport dynamics.
A second objective is to implement adiabatic excitation of collective Rydberg excitations in order to prepare deterministically a Rydberg chain.
This project will be implemented in a world leading group in cold Rydberg gases where the applicant will use two complementary experimental setups to address the different aspect of the objectives in the best conditions. He will be supervised by their respective principal investigators which will provide a strong management structure to the project.
Building around the applicant's experience in the field of cold Rydberg gases, this fellowship will provide him with new, cutting-edge experimental skills which would establish him as a leading researcher in this field. The innovative, high quality research which will be carried out during this fellowship will serve as a basis for the application to a permanent position.
Anomalous sub-diffusion equations by the meshless collocation method

Recently, many new applications in engineering and science are governed by a series of fractional ordinary differential equations or fractional partial differential equations (FPDEs), in which the differential order is with a fractional order. The anomalous sub-diffusion equation (ASDE) is a typical FPDE. The current dominant numerical method for modelling ASDE is finite difference method, which is based on a pre-defined grid leading to inherited issues or shortcomings. Because of its distinguished advantages, the meshless method has good potential in simulation of ASDE. This paper aims to develop an implicit meshless collocation technique based on the moving least squares (MLS) approximation for numerical simulation of ASDE. The discrete system of equations is obtained by using the MLS meshless shape functions and the meshless collocation formulation. The stability and convergence of this meshless approach related to the time discretisation are investigated theoretically and numerically. The numerical examples with regular and irregular nodal distributions are used to validate and investigate accuracy and efficiency of the newly developed meshless formulation. It is concluded that the present meshless formulation is very effective for the modelling and simulation of ASDEs.
Small herbivores suppress algal accumulation on Agatti atoll, Indian Ocean

Despite large herbivorous fish being generally accepted as the main group responsible for preventing algal accumulation on coral reefs, few studies have experimentally examined the relative importance of herbivore size on algal communities. This study used exclusion cages with two different mesh sizes (1 × 1 cm and 6 × 6 cm) to investigate the impact of different-sized herbivores on algal accumulation rates on the shallow ( 8 cm body depth) while allowing smaller fishes to access the plots. In contrast to the conclusions of most previous studies, the exclusion of large herbivores had no significant effect on the accumulation of benthic algae and the amount of algae present within the coarse-mesh cages was relatively consistent throughout the experimental period (around 50 % coverage and 1–2 mm height). The difference in algal accumulation between the fine-mesh and coarse-mesh cages appears to be related to the actions of small individuals from 12 herbivorous fish species (0.17 ind. m−2 and 7.7 g m−2) that were able to enter through the coarse mesh. Although restricted to a single habitat, these results suggest that when present in sufficient densities and diversity, small herbivorous fishes can prevent the accumulation of algal biomass on coral reefs.
