Feminist institutionalist approach to gender equality in stemm

“Feminist Institutionalist Approach to Gender Equality in STEMM” (FIAGES) addresses the research question: “is narrative congruence essential for progressing Gender Equality (GE)?” using the qualitative hypothesis that progress in GE is dependent on strong congruent narratives supporting of GE in academic and workplace organisations, in particular STEMM disciplines and high tech companies.
Studying and working in organisations having a satisfactory level of gender equality can foster gender-sensitive innovation in STEMM fields in academia and in high tech companies, creating a virtuous circle that reinforces a culture of GE. It is hypothesised that when narratives are a) non-congruent; b) non-supportive; or c) congruent and non supportive, GE does not progress, while d) congruent and supportive narratives will favour progress in GE.
Trinity College Dublin is well placed to support the planned research since it promotes an integrated approach to equality, mainstreams all gender-related policies and activities across the University; deepens partnerships to promote GE with key professional, service and business organisations in the wider community. 
The ER, with a strong competence in non-academic sectors, wishes to apply for tenured academic position in Gender Studies: the Trinity Centre for Gender Leadership, the Centre hosting the ER, provides excellent training opportunities and specific skills needed in gender studies, and the supervisor has an established international research profile strongly aligned to this application.
Research outputs include two journal articles, a book, presenting the research at international conferences, and international seminars and webinars. 
A bilingual dissemination and communication plan will increase awareness of the research aims and results. 
Numerous outreach activities, including the use of social media, will allow the transfer of knowledge in academy and companies, and also to the general public.
WINDSCREEN WIPER DEVICE COMPRISING A SEPARATION-LIMITING DEVICE

The invention relates to a windscreen wiper device comprising an arm (1) mounted in such a way that it can pivot about a first axis (3) on a driver (2) which is rotationally actuated within an angular range by means of the shaft (5) of an axis which is substantially parallel to the first axis (3), comprising means for limiting the extent of pivoting in a direction opposite to a surface that is to be wiped, consisting of an arm part and a driver part which acts as a stop when the arm (1) is pivoted from a specific angle. According to the invention, said driver part is a washer (6) which is mounted on said shaft (5) and is integral with the driver (2) and is provided with a stop means for said arm part.
The suprachiasmatic nucleus is part of a neural feedback circuit adapting blood pressure response

The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) is typically considered our autonomous clock synchronizing behavior with physiological parameters such as blood pressure (BP), just transmitting time independent of physiology. Yet several studies show that the SCN is involved in the etiology of hypertension. Here, we demonstrate that the SCN is incorporated in a neuronal feedback circuit arising from the nucleus tractus solitarius (NTS), modulating cardiovascular reactivity. Tracer injections into the SCN of male Wistar rats revealed retrogradely filled neurons in the caudal NTS, where BP information is integrated. These NTS projections to the SCN were shown to be glutamatergic and to terminate in the ventrolateral part of the SCN where light information also enters. BP elevations not only induced increased neuronal activity as measured by c-Fos in the NTS but also in the SCN. Lesioning the caudal NTS prevented this activation. The increase of SCN neuronal activity by hypertensive stimuli suggested involvement of the SCN in counteracting BP elevations. Examining this possibility we observed that elevation of BP, induced by α1-agonist infusion, was more than twice the magnitude in SCN-lesioned animals as compared to in controls, indicating indeed an active involvement of the SCN in short-term BP regulation. We propose that the SCN receives BP information directly from the NTS enabling it to react to hemodynamic perturbations, suggesting the SCN to be part of a homeostatic circuit adapting BP response. We discuss how these findings could explain why lifestyle conditions violating signals of the biological clock may, in the long-term, result in cardiovascular disease.
How to make opposites compatible

Polymers
Polyethylene (PE) and isotactic polypropylene ( i PP) are the two most widely used commodity plastics and thus make up a large fraction of the waste stream. However, the two plastics will not mix together, which limits options for dealing with mixed waste and decreases the value of recycled products. Eagan et al. report the synthesis of multiblock copolymers of i PP and PE by using a selective polymer initiator (see the Perspective by Creton). The high-molecular-weight blocks could be used to reinforce the interface between i PP and PE and allow blending of the two polymers.

Quantum approach to modelling high resolution kelvin probe force microscopy

Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM) is one of the newest scanning probe microscopy techniques, that enables us to obtain information about electrostatics and charge transfer on a surface, measured via very sharp tip moving above a sample. However, the theory behind the KPFM measurements and all physical interactions between the tip and sample are not fully understood, especially for very close scans. We plan to use density functional theory calculations to reveal the unknown physics of close KPFM scans. We will prepare multiscale simulation package for the KPFM, which will work on quantum theory level as well as simplified fast mechanistic model level and which will cover a wide range of experimental conditions. This work will enable us to get additional information about the physics going on the scanned sample from the KPFM measurements and to employ KPFM as an additional source of information for structural identification. Finally, it can lead to general theory for chemical resolution in scanning probe microscopy.
Drones and egnss for low airspace urban mobility

As commercial aviation has been a major paradigm shift for the development of modern society, we are now facing a new leap in mobility services with the introduction of urban air mobility and urban air delivery. Our lives are now depending majorly on immediacy. From our everyday commute to work to the next-minute delivery on our preferred e-commerce platform, we are not good at waiting-in-line. And this has been mostly backed up by fast but robust technology breakthroughs enabling commercial aviation, satellite navigation and intelligent software. We are now facing a new technology breakthrough that will bring us even more immediacy. Urban Air Mobility (UAM) is finally a plausible reality that will bring multimodal fast commutes inside and around urban areas. Combining conventional means of transport with Urban Air Mobility is not only finally feasible, but it is the way to move forward in these very congested traffic areas. Furthermore, road delivery is congesting the streets of our cities and sub-urban areas for our everyday supplies. However, the urban sky is still unexplored, and as technology advances and regulatory frameworks develop further, Urban Air Delivery (UAD) services becomes a reality that could provide not only faster, but cleaner, delivery services, thus leaving the streets for the, still utopic, recreational cycle and walk arounds. This project will have two main pillars of research, development and operational implementation for  Urban Air Mobility and Urban Air Delivery. 
The two pillars will provide the individual assets towards the main objective of the project:
To develop the navigation and positioning requirements for the challenging urban air services, and demonstrate how EGNSS stands as an enabler of this future city sky.

Effect of perilla frutescens extract on immunity function of broilers

This experiment was designed to study the change of immunity function of broilers adding the perilla frutescens extract to diets.Single factor trial design was used in our experiment.Four hundred fifty one-day-old avian broilers were randomly allocated to five groups with three replicates of thirty broilers each.They were fed a basal diet 0.05mg/kg aureomycin 0.5g/ kg,1.0g/kg and 1.5g/kg perilla frutescens,respectively.The experiment period was divided into two stages,0-3rd week and 4th-6th week.The effect of perilla frutescens extract on immune function of broilers was studied at the end of 3th week old and 6th week old.The results showed:(1) Comparing with control group,the rate of survival of broilers from 0.5g/kg and 1.0g/kg groups was raised during 4th-6th week or whole experiment period.The rate of survival of broilers from 1.5g/kg group was higher than the control group during the whole experiment period.(2)Comparing with control group,the immune organs index,ND antibody,the rate of erthr ocyte active rosette,T lymphocyte rate and serum IgG in 0.5g/kg,1.0g/kg and 1.5g/kg groups were all raised.(3)The effect of perilla frutescens extract is better than that of aureomycin on improving the immunity function of broilers.We concluded that perilla frutescens extract could improve immunity function of broilers.The effect of adding 1.0g/kg perilla frutescens extract in broilers diet was better than other doses.Perilla frutescens extract will be potential substitute for antibiotics.
Reductionism in medical science and practice

Sir,

Beresford’s essay ‘Medical reductionism: lessons from the great philosophers’ is simplistic and sets a dangerous tone for discussing contentious issues affecting everyday medical practice.1 While his argument about a philosophy for medical science will not impact the thinking of working scientists, his statements about evidence-based medicine will be grist for the mills of the know-nothing movement in the USA2 and could embarrass public support for medical science, which is necessary for developing better evidence to inform decision making in everyday practice. On these grounds alone, Beresford’s essay should not go unchallenged.

With regard to the conduct of medical research, Beresford acknowledges that rational analysis yields significant insights into the causes and treatments of disease but warns that this reductionist program oversimplifies the complexity of clinical issues, cannot …
ÁRBOLES PARA LA CAZA MARINA. APROVISIONAMIENTO FORESTAL Y TECNOLOGÍA DE LA MADERA EN LOS ARPONES DEL LITORAL DE ANTOFAGASTA, NORTE DE CHILE

En ocasiones, los objetos son diseÃ±ados de forma aparentemente irracional, no obstante, son el resultado de racionalidades distintas a las nuestras. El caso de los arpones precolombinos de madera para caza marina en la costa de Antofagasta es un excelente ejemplo de este fenÃ³meno, pues si bien fue una tecnologÃ­a clave en el modo de vida costero, fue diseÃ±ada con materiales prÃ¡cticamente ausentes en el litoral, aumentando sustancialmente sus costos de producciÃ³n. Abordamos este problema desde los anÃ¡lisis taxonÃ³mico y tecnolÃ³gico de una muestra de 38 cabezales de arpÃ³n de madera provenientes de sitios datados entre los 6500 cal. AP y el contacto europeo, lo que servirÃ¡ de insumo para discutir las estrategias de aprovisionamiento de recursos forestales y las lÃ³gicas de gestiÃ³n de la madera de los colectivos litorales de Antofagasta. Proponemos que factores culturales, simbÃ³licos, polÃ­ticos y sociales fueron preponderantes en la decisiÃ³n del uso de la madera en el desierto mÃ¡s Ã¡rido del mundo.
Investigating differentiation using parallel single cell transcriptomic and epigenomic analysis

Past research has identified epigenetic mechanisms including histone modifications as key regulators of transcription and implicated them in cellular differentiation. But while our knowledge about their cell type specific distribution and its influence on transcription has constantly increased, we still know very little about the orchestration of epigenetic and transcriptional changes as they occur during differentiation. To gain a global understanding of the order of events, we aim to identifying changes in gene expression and main transcriptional repressive and promoting histone modifications in cells undergoing differentiation.

For this we will develop a novel approach to examine the distribution of histone modifications on a single cell level adapting a method based on antibody targeted micrococcal nuclease (ChIC-seq), which will lead to a modification dependent enzymatic digestion of the DNA. In comparison with existing single cell ChIP approaches this method lacks a precipitation step, leading to minimal material loss per cell, while allowing the use of the variety of histone mark specific monoclonal antibodies. Adapting this approach to the previously described method for co-acquisition of transcriptomic and genomic information from a single cell existing in the lab, will allow the normalization of the histone state using the transcription status of the cell.

To analyze the order of changes associated with cell differentiation, we will use single cell RNA seq analysis pipelines (RaceID + StemID) to identify and enrich for cells in between two specific differentiation stages.
A novel integration of radiative cooling into photovoltaic/thermal panel in buildings by applying a spectrally selective micro/nano coating

This fellowship aims to train a talented early career researcher and contribute to the EU scientific excellence by investigating and developing an innovative coupled radiative cooling and photovoltaic/thermal (RC-PV/T) collector for building-integrated applications. The Incoming Researcher is a winner of Grand Gold Medal of Geneva International Exhibition of Inventions, Excellent Doctoral Dissertations Award of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) and Excellent PhD Graduate Award of the President of CAS, attributed to his original proof-of-concept study of the novel RC-PV/T technology.
The Incoming Researcher is a highly dedicated and motivated young researcher and has been stimulated to devise this novel design. Solar thermal collection and photovoltaics are the dominating technologies, however, the combined photovoltaic/thermal (PV/T) technology is expected to become popular due to its higher overall efficiency, more cost effective and better match with building energy demand as well. Integration of radiative cooling into a PV/T collector can further contribute to such merits by adding a night sky cooling function, so a RC-PV/T collector can produce electricity and heat during the daytime and provide cooling during the nighttime. To achieve such triple functions, the applicants have analysed and proposed the ideal spectral selective characteristics of the RC-PV/T panel, and a desirable RC-PV/T micro/nano coating as well as a RC-PV/T collector will be designed and trial-manufactured.
The project has been carefully designed to match the Incoming Researcher’s profile with the strengths of the University of Nottingham in solar energy, micro/nano coating and low carbon buildings, and thus facilitates a two-way knowledge transfer and training. Successful completion of this fellowship will contribute to the European excellence in renewable energy technologies for Zero Energy Buildings, and promote the professional competence and career prospect of the Incoming Researcher.
COMPARATIVE STUDY OF DIFFERENT RELIGIONS IN THE TRANSGENIC PRODUCTS TECHNOLOGY

Today, human are able to use genetic engineering to create new organisms, which normally it is very difficult to do. These organisms that named genetically modified organisms (GMO) are very extensive applications in various sciences and technologies including medicine, pharmaceuticals, industry, agriculture… One of the most applications of these organisms is in agriculture and food production. Development of transgenic foods have made some concerns in many different aspects of ethical, social and biosafety and acceptance of the new foods. On the other hand, religious views have a significant role in the public acceptance of this technology. However, the views of various religions and their influence are different on decision making of consumers. In the present paper, the divine views of three great religions (Islam, Christianity and Judaism) are discussed in the context of transgenic technology. The studies show that there is no general consensus on this issue within the three religions. Overall, however, it appears that mainstream theology in all three religions increasingly tends towards acceptance of GM technology per se, on performing GM research, and on consumption of GM foods. However, all of them are believed on there being rigorous scientific, ethical and regulatory scrutiny of research and development of such products, and that these products are properly labeled. Furthermore, the results show that several other factors also influence the religious aspects the acceptance of genetically modified crops, such as media, environmental activists, scientists and food industries as well as all of information sources.

A back-seat driver for remote control of experiments in underwater acoustic sensor networks

This paper presents a novel system to remotely control and reconfigure an heterogeneous underwater acoustic sensor network in scenarios with no direct access to all the underwater nodes after their deployment. The system uses the SUNSET framework to interact with and to operate the underwater network via single-hop and multi-hop acoustic transmissions. Users can remotely configure the underwater devices and the tests to run without the need to retrieve or bring to the surface the deployed nodes. The system allows the user to select different protocol stacks, protocol parameters and device behavior policies and to investigate the performance of several network configurations in an easy and fast way, avoiding that most of the experiment time is used to prepare the tests rather than to actually run the tests and collect the results. The presented mechanism has been successfully tested and validated during three in field campaigns, considering different underwater environments and communication devices. Our results show that the time to remotely control and reconfigure several batteries of tests for a variety of network configurations reduces to few tens of seconds, thus enhancing robustness and flexibility and significantly reducing the costs and logistic complexity of in field experiments.
