description: The groups QF, QT, and QV are groups of quasi-automorphisms of the infinite binary tree. Their names indicate a similarity with Thompson's well-known groups F, T, and V. We will use the theory of diagram groups over semigroup presentations to prove that all of the above groups (and several generalizations) have type F-infinity. Our proof uses certain types of hybrid diagrams, which have properties in common with both planar diagrams and braided diagrams. The diagram groups defined by hybrid diagrams also act properly and isometrically on CAT(0) cubical complexes.

description: Brain age estimation involves predicting the biological age of individuals from their brain images, which offers valuable insights into the aging process and the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. Conducting large-scale datasets for medical image analysis is a challenging and time-consuming task. Existing approaches mostly depend on large datasets, which are hard to come by and expensive. These approaches also require sophisticated, resource-intensive models with a large number of parameters, necessitating a considerable amount of processing power. As a result, there is a vital need to develop innovative methods that can achieve robust performance with limited datasets and efficient use of computational resources. This paper proposes a novel slice-based dual-stream method called GDSM (Greedy Dual-Stream Model) for brain age estimation. This method addresses the limitations of large dataset requirements and computational resource intensiveness. The proposed method incorporates local and global aspects of the brain, thereby refining the focus on specific target regions. The approach employs four backbones to predict ages based on local and global features, complemented by a final model for age correction. Our method demonstrates a Mean Absolute Error (MAE) of 3.25 years on the test set of IBID, which only contains 289 subjects. To demonstrate the robustness of our approach for any small dataset, we analyzed the proposed method with the IXI dataset and achieved an MAE of 4.18 years on the test set of IXI. By leveraging dual-stream and greedy strategies, this approach achieves efficiency and robust performance, making it comparable with other state-of-the-art methods. The code for the GDSM model is available at https://github.com/iman2693/GDSM.
Aerial surveys: effects of aircraft speed and environmental factors on marine megafauna

description: Aerial surveys are commonly used to monitor animal population and behaviour in both terrestrial and marine settings. Using aerial surveys and a density surface model (DSM) I investigated the impact of environmental factors on marine megafauna. The underestimation associated with marine aerial surveys are caused by two factors: availability and perception biases. Both of these can potentially be resolved by reducing aircraft speed. In this thesis I investigated whether observers sighted a greater number of marine animals when the aerial platform (in this case helicopters) travelled at 80 knots compared to 100 knots. No significant difference in detection of dolphins, fish schools or sharks was found, suggesting that observer training and experience has a greater impact than speed on the number and type of animals seen. Given the significant increment in cost of both observer time and helicopter charter incurred from using a 20% slower speed, without an increase in data quality, retention of the 100 knot survey speed is recommended. No significant relationship was found between dolphin and fish school counts and either sea surface temperature (SST) or chlorophyll-a (Chl-a). This suggests the involvement of other factors in the distribution and habitat selection of marine animal population.

description: Arabic language is one of the most popular languages in the world. Hundreds of millions of people in many countries around the world speak Arabic as their native speaking. However, due to complexity of Arabic language, recognition of printed and handwritten Arabic text remained untouched for a very long time compared with English and Chinese. Although, in the last few years, significant number of researches has been done in recognizing printed and handwritten Arabic text, it stills an open research field due to cursive nature of Arabic script. This paper proposes automatic printed Arabic text recognition technique based on linear and ellipse regression techniques. After collecting all possible forms of each character, unique code is generated to represent each character form. Each code contains a sequence of lines and ellipses. To recognize fonts, a unique list of codes is identified to be used as a fingerprint of font. The proposed technique has been evaluated using over 14000 different Arabic words with different fonts and experimental results show that average recognition rate of the proposed technique is 86%.

description: We develop an alternative thermodynamic cycle for the Stirling machine, where the polytropic process plays a central role. Analytical expressions for pressure and temperatures of the working gas are obtained as a function of the volume and the parameter which characterizes the polytropic process. This approach achieves a closer agreement with the experimental pressure-volume diagram and can be adapted to any type of the Stirling engine.

description: This paper presents several test cases intended to be benchmarks for numerical schemes for single-phase fluid flow in fractured porous media. A number of solution strategies are compared, including a vertex and a cell-centered finite volume method, a non-conforming embedded discrete fracture model, a primal and a dual extended finite element formulation, and a mortar discrete fracture model. The proposed benchmarks test the schemes by increasing the difficulties in terms of network geometry, e.g. intersecting fractures, and physical parameters, e.g. low and high fracture-matrix permeability ratio as well as heterogeneous fracture permeabilities. For each problem, the results presented by the participants are the number of unknowns, the approximation errors in the porous matrix and in the fractures with respect to a reference solution, and the sparsity and condition number of the discretized linear system. All data and meshes used in this study are publicly available for further comparisons.

Cultural Statecraft: the Confucius Institute project in Australia
Creators: name: Donelly, Kieran
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: The last several decades have seen China continue to grow its position as a significant power in regional and world affairs. One such strategy for cultivating its international image has been the Confucius Institute (CI) project, a centrally-coordinated network of not-for profit bodies tasked with promoting Chinese language and culture in overseas educational institutions. Australia has become host to one of the largest number of CIs in a single country, with fourteen CIs established in Australian partnering institutions to date. By focusing on the CI project in Australia's domestic context, an interesting question arises: Why has the Chinese government promoted the growth of the Confucius Institute project in Australia and elsewhere ? I argue that the Chines e state has used the CI project as one of its key mechanisms of cultural statecraft, facilitating China's national development in the same manner as its broader statecraft apparatus . Drawing upon primary research including interviews with employees of the CIs, I show that the government has coordinated the CI Project through a loosely centralised model in which individual CIs are delegated with sufficiently high levels of autonomy over their operation and management. This allows the Chinese state to efficintly promote the learning of Chinese culture and the Chinese language in much the same benign manner as the efforts of other governments. However, given the relatively poor level of transparency in the CI project's operations in educational institutions throughout Australia, the possibility for the CIs to be used as tools of the Chinese state's sharp power cannot be discounted.

description: The key feature of a thermophotovoltaic (TPV) emitter is the enhancement of thermal emission corresponding to energies just above the bandgap of the absorbing photovoltaic cell and simultaneous suppression of thermal emission below the bandgap. We show here that a single layer plasmonic coating can perform this task with high efficiency. Our key design principle involves tuning the epsilon-near-zero frequency (plasma frequency) of the metal acting as a thermal emitter to the electronic bandgap of the semiconducting cell. This approach utilizes the change in reflectivity of a metal near its plasma frequency (epsilon-near-zero frequency) to lead to spectrally selective thermal emission and can be adapted to large area coatings using high temperature plasmonic materials. We provide a detailed analysis of the spectral and angular performance of high temperature plasmonic coatings as TPV emitters. We show the potential of such high temperature plasmonic thermal emitter coatings (p-TECs) for narrowband near-field thermal emission. We also show the enhancement of near-surface energy density in graphene-multilayer thermal metamaterials due to a topological transition at an effective epsilon-near-zero frequency. This opens up spectrally selective thermal emission from graphene multilayers in the infrared frequency regime. Our design paves the way for the development of single layer p-TECs and graphene multilayers for spectrally selective radiative heat transfer applications.

Role of protein disulphide isomerase and its family members in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis

Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Superoxide dismutase (SOD1), Tar-DNA binding protein-43 (TDP-43) and Fused in Sarcoma (FUS) are major proteins linked to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) pathology. Whilst neurodegenerative mechanisms are not fully defined in ALS, dysfunction to the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) is increasingly implicated in the pathology of the disease. Protein disulphide isomerase (PDI) is an ER chaperone which also functions as an isomerase and aids in the formation and reduction of protein disulphide bonds. It is primarily located in the ER but it is also found in other cellular locations. Our laboratory previously demonstrated that over-expression of PDI is protective against mutant SOD1 in neuronal cultures. PDI has also been shown to co-localise with FUS and TDP-43 positive inclusions in ALS patients. Here we examined whether over-expression of PDI is protective against mutant TDP-43 and FUS induced ER stress and ER-Golgi transport defects and mislocalisation into cytoplasm in cellular models. Furthermore, we examined the mechanism by which PDI is protective and suggests that the disulphide interchange activity is important for its protective function. Also PDI in the cytoplasm further accentuates its protective ability. Importantly, PDI was examined in vivo and it was demonstrated that a small molecule mimic of the PDI active site -1,2 bis (mercaptoacetamido) cyclohexane BMC reduced the loss of motor neuron in SOD1G93A mice signifying the relevance of PDI in disease pathology. The results in this study demonstrate that PDI is protective against the major misfolded proteins linked to ALS; therefore the molecular mimic may be a novel therapeutic target in multiple forms of ALS.

description: To ease the development of robot learning in industry, two conditions need to be fulfilled. Manipulators must be able to learn high accuracy and precision tasks while being safe for workers in the factory. In this paper, we extend previously submitted work which consists in rapid learning of local high accuracy behaviors. By exploration and regression, linear and quadratic models are learnt for respectively the dynamics and cost function. Iterative Linear Quadratic Gaussian Regulator combined with cost quadratic regression can converge rapidly in the final stages towards high accuracy behavior as the cost function is modelled quite precisely. In this paper, both a different cost function and a second order improvement method are implemented within this framework. We also propose an analysis of the algorithm parameters through simulation for a positioning task. Finally, an experimental validation on a KUKA LBR iiwa robot is carried out. This collaborative robot manipulator can be easily programmed into safety mode, which makes it qualified for the second industry constraint stated above.

Finding the female in ancient Greek landscapes

description: This thesis examines the associations between females and landscape in ancient Greek evidence from the Archaic to Hellenistic periods. Drawing on select linguistic evidence, it demonstrates that ancient Greek poets and authors use landscape and its features in numerous ways in relation to females. These include their bodies and physical appearances; culturally prescribed female experiences including maidenhood, womanhood and motherhood; female sexuality and sensuality; the manifestation or expression of female power, ability and persona; and female participation in society such as in ritual and religion, marriage as an institution and physical labour in cultivated landscapes. The investigation reveals women who negotiate their roles in social norms, expectations and relationships with others, whilst challenging the assignment of the female to passivity, silence and seclusion.

description: Two metal–organic frameworks based on a multifunctional ligand 2-(5-bromo-pyridin-3-yl)-1H-imidazole-4,5-dicarboxylic acid (H3L), [Mn(HL)(C2H5OH)]n (1) and {[Zn(HL)(H2O)2]·H2O}n (2), have been hydro/solvothermally synthesized and characterized by IR, elemental analyses, X-ray powder and single-crystal diffractions, and thermogravimetric analyses. In 1, (HL)2– ligands adopt the μ
3-kN,O:kN′,O′:kN′′ coordination mode and use their imidazoledicarboxylates to bis-chelate MnII into left- and right-handed helixes which are further bridged into a mesolayer structure with (4·82) topology through the coordination of their pyridyl groups. In 2, (HL)2– ligands only use their imidazoledicarboxylates to bis-chelate ZnII into linear chains which are further linked into a 2D supramolecular framework through interchain hydrogen–bonding interactions. Interestingly, the structures of 1 and 2 are mainly dominated by the bis-N,O-chelation of the imidazoledicarboxylate in (HL)2–. As for the formation of the imidazoledicarboxylate-bridged helical chains in 1 or straight chains in 2, it largely depends on the cis- or trans-chelation of two imidazoledicarboxylates around the same metal center. Magnetostructural analysis of 1 discloses that the bis-N,O-chelating imidazoledicarboxylate of (HL)2– transmits antiferromagnetic interactions along the imidazoledicarboxylate-bridged helical chain with the spin-coupling constant of –0.71 cm–1. Additionally, 2 emits greatly enhanced blue fluorescence mainly originating from the intraligand charge transition.

description: Pr$_4$Ni$_3$O$_8$ is an overdoped analog of hole-doped layered cuprates. Here we show via ab initio calculations that Ce-doped Pr$_4$Ni$_3$O$_8$ (Pr$_3$CeNi$_3$O$_8$) has the same electronic structure as the antiferromagnetic insulating phase of parent cuprates. We find that substantial Ce-doping should be thermodynamically stable and that other 4+ cations would yield a similar antiferromagnetic insulating state, arguing this configuration is robust for layered nickelates of low enough valence. The analogies with cuprates at different $d$ fillings suggest that intermediate Ce-doping concentrations near 1/8 should be an appropriate place to search for superconductivity in these low-valence Ni oxides.
Platforms for in vitro glycoengineering of proteins

description: Protein glycosylation is an important post-translational modification that affects the protein structure and function. Glycoengineering is the process where the glycosylation outcome of the protein is modified for a designated purpose such as functionalisation of the glycans or generating a glycan-defined glycoprotein. The biggest advantage of in vitro glycoengineering methods is the controllable physical parameters that define the reaction environment.In this dissertation, three different aspects of in vitro glycoengineering approaches were addressed; 1) the design of a DNA-guided protein scaffold for multi-glycosyltransferase reactions (Chapter 2), 2) immobilisation of glycosyltransferases on a stationary column for re-usable, on-column glycosylation (Chapter 3), and 3) application of in vitro glycoengineering principles to a cancer -specific IgM antibody which was firstly characterised for its site-specific glycosylation (Chapter 4), the knowledge of which was used for multi-purpose conjugation of specific IgM glycans (Chapter 5).In Chapter 2, the design of a sequence specific DNA-binding protein with a monomeric streptavidin fusion protein adaptor (TALE-mSA) was presented. By tailoring the DNA binding sequence of the adaptor to a predefined custom DNA program, spatial alignment of streptavidin-tagged glycosyltransferases can be achieved. TALE-mSA adaptor proteins were recombinantly expressed and purified from E. coli and tested for DNA binding capacity.In Chapter 3, recombinantly expressed human B4GALT1 containing an N-terminal His-tag was used as a model glycosyltransferase to explore the possibility of in vitro glycosylation by immobilised of a glycosyltransferase on Ni-NTA resin. Galactosylation of de-sialylated, de-galactosylated bovine fetuin was found to be rapid; approximately 70% of the glycans were optimally galactosylated within 30mins. Re-usability, and adaptability for sequential on-column glycosylation were explored. IVIn Chapter 4, in-depth site specific glycosylation characterisation was performed on an anti-cancer IgM antibody, PAT-SM6, to establish the baseline glycosylation for the in vitro glycoengineering described in Chapter 5. As approximately 50% of the glycans contained a free galactose, a single step sialylation by ST6GAL1 using an azide-labelled CMP-sialic acid was chosen for chemo-enzymatic functionalisation of IgM glycans by click chemistry. In-depth characterisation of the incorporation of the azide-functionalised groups was determined.In conclusion, development and application of these platforms will provide more tools towards understanding the details of how glycosylation affects protein function.

description: Developers prefer to utilize third-party libraries when they implement some functionalities and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) are frequently used by them. Facing an unfamiliar API, developers tend to consult tutorials as learning resources. Unfortunately, the segments explaining a specific API scatter across tutorials. Hence, it remains a challenging issue to find the relevant segments. In this study, we propose a more accurate model to find the exact tutorial fragments explaining APIs. This new model consists of a text classifier with domain specific features. More specifically, we discover two important indicators to complement traditional text based features, namely co-occurrence APIs and knowledge based API extensions. In addition, we incorporate Word2Vec, a semantic similarity metric to enhance the new model. Extensive experiments over two publicly available tutorial datasets show that our new model could find up to 90% fragments explaining APIs and improve the state-of-the-art model by up to 30% in terms of F-measure.

description: We investigate the universality of entanglement kinetics in polymer melts. We compare predictions of a recently developed constitutive equation for disentanglement to molecular dynamics simulations of both united-atom polyethylene and Kremer-Grest models for polymers in shear and extensional flow. We confirm that entanglements recover on the retraction timescale, rather than the reptation timescale. We find that the convective constraint release parameter $β$ is independent of molecular weight, but that it increases with the ratio of Kuhn length $b_K$ to packing length $p$ as $β\sim (b_K/p)^α$, with an exponent $α=1.9$, which may suggest that disentanglement rate correlates with an increase in the tube diameter. These results may help shed light on which polymers are more likely to undergo shear banding.

description: We propose a Monte Carlo algorithm designed to simulate quantum as well as classical systems at equilibrium, bridging the algorithmic gap between quantum and classical thermal simulation algorithms. The method is based on a novel decomposition of the quantum partition function that can be viewed as a series expansion about its classical part. We argue that the algorithm is optimally suited to tackle quantum many-body systems that exhibit a range of behaviors from `fully-quantum' to `fully-classical', in contrast to many existing methods. We demonstrate the advantages of the technique by comparing it against existing schemes. We also illustrate how our method allows for the unification of quantum and classical thermal parallel tempering techniques into a single algorithm and discuss its practical significance.

description: In this study, we explore the accelerated expansion of the universe within the framework of modified $f(Q)$ gravity. The investigation focus on the role of bulk viscosity in understanding the universe's accelerated expansion. Specifically, a bulk viscous matter-dominated cosmological model is considered, with the bulk viscosity coefficient expressed as $ζ= ζ_0 ρH^{-1} + ζ_1 H $. We consider the power law $f(Q)$ function $f(Q)=αQ^n $, where $α$ and $n$ are arbitrary constants and derive the analytical solutions for the field equations corresponding to a flat FLRW metric. Subsequently, we used the combined Cosmic Chronometers (CC)+Pantheon+SH0ES sample to estimate the free parameters of the obtained analytic solution. We conduct Bayesian statistical analysis to estimate the posterior probability by employing the likelihood function and the MCMC random sampling technique, along with the AIC and BIC statistical assessment criteria. In addition, we explore the evolutionary behavior of significant cosmological parameters. The effective equation of state (EOS) parameter predicts the accelerating behavior of the cosmic expansion phase. Further, by the statefinder and $Om(z)$ diagnostic test, we found that our viscous model favors quintessence-type behavior and can successfully describe the late-time scenario.

The role of haemodynamic analysis in high flow extracranial to intracranial bypass surgery
Creators: name: Sia, Sheau Fung
Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: "Use of computational haemodynamics technology is well described for a number of diverse conditions in medicine including predicting flows in the Circle of Willis, risk of rupture of aneurysms, and optimum endovascular stent placement in the management of vascular pathology. Saphenous vein or radial artery interposition grafts are often used for high-flow extracranial-intracranial bypass procedures. These bypasses have the potential to supply a considerable volume of cerebral blood flow to the brain. However, long-term patency for specific graft types remains unknown. This is a computation haemodynamic analysis of consecutive interposition bypass cases. The bypasses are between the common carotid artery (CCA) and intracranial Internal carotid artery (ICA) or middle cerebral artery (MCA). Emerging evidence supports a pathogenic role of abnormal wall shear stress (WSS) and pressure turbulence flow as important factors in the development of early graft failure at the anastomotic site. This study aimed to develop a computational fluid dynamics simulator for assessing flow in cerebral high flow revascularisation bypass grafts and to study the impact of variations in the anastomosis angle and pressure gradient across bypass. Also the optimum mean arterial pressure required for maintaining the graft flow was investigated.

Validity of the Weizsäcker-Williams Approximation and the Analysis of Beam Dump Experiments: Production of an axion, a dark photon, or a new axial-vector boson

description: Beam dump experiments have been used to search for new particles, $ϕ$, with null results interpreted in terms of limits on masses $m_ϕ$ and coupling constants $ε$. However these limits have been obtained by using approximations [including the Weizsäcker-Williams (WW) approximation] or Monte-Carlo simulations. We display methods to obtain the cross section and the resulting particle production rates without using approximations on the phase space integral or Monte-Carlo simulations. In our previous work we examined the case of the new scalar boson production; in this paper we explore all possible new spin-0 and spin-1 particles. We show that the approximations cannot be used to obtain accurate values of cross sections. The corresponding exclusion plots differ by substantial amounts when seen on a linear scale. Furthermore, a new region ($m_ϕ<2m_e$) of parameter space can be explored without using one of the common approximations, $m_ϕ\gg m_e$. We derive new expressions for the three photon decays of dark photon and four photon decays of new axial-vector bosons. As a result, the production cross section and exclusion region of different low mass ($m_ϕ<2m_e$) bosons are very different. Moreover, our method can be used as a consistency check for Monte-Carlo simulations.

(CR16) Comminuted Subtrochanteric Femur Fracture with Intertrochanteric Extension in Above Knee Amputee
Creators: name: Kesavan Ravindran
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Introduction: Fractures around hip in the amputated limbs are rarely seen these days and countable numbers admitted in orthopedic trauma wards. With the advent of rehabilitation, an increasing number of amputees are still ambulant and functionally active. When hip fractures occur in this group of patients, surgical treatment aims to optimize mobility and restore function. Case Report/Description: An active Paralympic badminton athlete with history of traumatic above knee amputation presented with history of motor vehicle accident. He complained of right hip pain with clinical signs of tenderness, swelling, and limited range of motion. Plain radiograph shows right comminuted subtrochanteric femur fracture with intertrochanteric extension. The patient was treated by open reduction, dynamic condylar screw fixation augmented with screw fixation and cerclage wiring. Post operatively patient was advised on wheelchair ambulation with early rehabilitation session for range of motion and muscle strengthening exercises. By three months, fracture united and patient able to return to his Paralympic sport activities. Fewer studies shows that muscle atrophy could be another cause to increase risk of fracture over amputated limb even with minimal trauma. So, we would like to stress that better stability in terms of types of plate fixation and proper rehabilitations has shown promising outcomes in treating these types of fracture in above knee amputated limb. Discussion/Conclusion: Comminuted subtrochanteric femur fracture with intertrochanteric extension in an above knee amputee poses a surgical challenge. Good surgical technique and choice of implant plays an important role in achieving good functional outcome.
A magnified view of the ISM and star formation in a strongly lensed AGN hosting SMG at z = 2.6

description: Sub-mm Galaxies (SMGs) are among the most prolific star forming galaxies in the universe, with star formation rates (SFRs) up to 1000 Msun/yr. Our understanding of the nature of the dense star-forming interstellar medium (ISM) in these galaxies is still in its infancy, because it is difficult to access the spatial scales relevant for assessing the astrophysics of star formation in galaxies at high-z. ‘9io9’ is a strongly lensed SMG at z~2.6, with an intrinsic infrared luminosity exceeding 10^13 Lsun. The fact that it is strongly lensed allows us to examine the ISM on spatial scales of a few 100pc in a galaxy forming stars at several 1000 solar masses per year. We present new ALMA Band 4, 8 and 9 data tracing the molecular and atomic gas and thermal dust continuum in this object. We reveal evidence for a large star bursting molecular gas disc and possible molecular outflow, and present a study of the resolved dust temperature across the source (which also contains a radio-loud AGN). Our detection of both the 122 and 205um [NII] lines in 9io9, in combination with CI and CO(4-3), allow us to map the physical conditions of the ionised and molecular ISM across the source, providing a unique resolved insight into the nature of star formation at its most extreme at the peak epoch of galaxy assembly.
An exploration of interactions in intercultural nurse-patient encounters

Publisher: name: Macquarie University

description: This research explores interactions between registered nurses (RNs) from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds and their patients in the Australian healthcare setting. Increasing migration of healthcare workers and patients to Australia has led to increasing language and cultural diversity in the workplace. This has led to concerns regarding the management of clinical communication in a second language, and the communicative competence of healthcare workers from CALD backgrounds which can impact on health outcomes and patient safety (Chiang & Crickmore, 2009; Hamilton & Woodward-Kron, 2010; Shen et al., 2012). Yet, rarely has linguistic analysis of intercultural communication between patients and health providers occurred (Collins, Peters, & Watt, 2011; Ulrey & Amason, 2001). The aim of this project is to explore communication between RNs from CALD backgrounds and their patients in the workplace, using the knowledge to contribute towards greater awareness of communication strategies that support communicative competence. Data is drawn from two phases. Phase one involved interviews of RNs from CALD backgrounds. Five themes emerged through thematic analysis of the data, with the central theme of ‘adjustment’ identified as fundamental to the experiences of the RNs. This theme interrelated with each of the other themes that emerged: professional experiences with communication, ways of showing respect, displaying empathy, and vulnerability. The second phase involved participant observations and audio-recording of interactions between the RNs and their patients. Interactional sociolinguistic (IS) and theme orientated discourse analysis of the second phase identified ‘Focal themes’ (Roberts & Sarangi, 2005) that include the display of empathy, building of rapport, and the provision of empowering patient education. Discourse analysis of this interactional data has made available the strategic, discursive choices that these RNs make. It also provides resources for communication training workshops that support the development of communicative competence of RNs who are new to the Australian healthcare environment, therefore supporting improved health outcomes and patient safety.
