POLITICAL PARTIES AS COMBINERS: TRANSITIONS IN TUNISIA AND EGYPT BETWEEN DEMOCRATIZATION AND AUTHORITARIAN RESILIENCE
Creators: name: RESTA, VALERIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2017

description: In marking an historical change in large parts of the Arab region, the Arab uprisings have also triggered a process of soul searching in the scholarship of Arab politics. The events unfolding in the region since 2011 prove indeed that the two paradigms dividing the academic community, that of authoritarian resilience (also known as the post-democratization paradigm) and that of democratization, are alone insufficient in accounting for the political developments of the area. In this regard, extant contributions explaining the different paths undertook by Tunisia and Egypt between 2011 and 2013 enlighten the point in case. On the one hand, democratization studies pinpoint to the different choices taken by transitional actors but remain only partial in that don?t go further than the observed behavior. On the other hand, post-democratization studies focus on the structures and the mechanisms underpinning the previous authoritarian regimes but fall short in providing the causal link between them and the observed outcome. In line with the transitology approach, this research moves from the acknowledgment that the failure or the success of the transitions in Egypt and Tunisia is to be attributed to political parties? choice about whether to cooperate or not with the other ones within the phase of installation. Yet, unlike any other kind of transitional actor, parties? strategy profiles result from the interplay among: i) extant social divisions; ii) power resources and iii) ideological polarization. By breaking down the concept of agency in this way, the different structures of competition underneath the previous authoritarian rule in Tunisia and Egypt account for much of the variation across the two countries. First, they are responsible for the uneven distribution of seats? share inside the transitional national assemblies encouraging stronger parties to defect from cooperation in order to institutionalize their power advantage. Second, they are responsible for the different degrees of ideological polarization which is deemed to reduce the common ground available for the constitutional bargaining. While offering new insights accounting for the political developments in Tunisia and Egypt following the ousting of the previous dictators, this work combines the two contending paradigms into a unified reading fulfilling their respective shortcomings. On the one hand, the concept of agency so formulated allows democratization studies to go deeper than ?what ought to be?. On the other hand, it provides post-democratization studies a causal link, i.e. parties? agency, connecting previous regimes? structures with the outcome of transition.
Fisiopatologia, clinica, storia naturale e terapia delle cardiomiopatie amiloidotiche

description: L’amiloidosi cardiaca è l’esempio tipico di cardiomiopatia infiltrativa. La diagnosi presuppone un alto indice di sospetto. 
Nella pratica clinica le cause più frequenti di amiloidosi sistemica sono: amiloidosi AL (secondaria alla deposizione di catene leggere libere circolanti delle immunoglobuline nel contesto di discrasia plasmocellulare), amiloidosi da deposizione di transtiretina mutata (amiloidosi ereditaria ATTR) e da deposizione di transtiretina nativa, “wild-type” (amiloidosi senile). 
L’ecocardiogramma, la lettura integrata ECG-ecocardiogramma e la risonanza magnetica forniscono importanti elementi per il sospetto diagnostico.
La diagnosi finale deve essere necessariamente eziologica per poter orientare al meglio le strategie terapeutiche. 
L’amiloidosi ereditaria da mutazione della transtiretina (ATTRm) ha una espressione clinica prevalentemente neurologica. L’interessamento cardiaco è relativamente frequente (soprattutto nelle mutazioni diverse dalla Val30Met), ma è in genere successivo all’espressione del fenotipo neurologico. Se la cronologia di espressione dei due fenotipi si inverte, la probabilità di mancare la diagnosi di ATTRm è elevata. 
Nella  realtà più del 10% dei pazienti affetti da ATTRm ha una espressione fenotipica prevalentemente o esclusivamente cardiologica. Questo sottogruppo si caratterizza  per una netta prevalenza del sesso maschile, per una diagnosi in età più avanzata e per una frequenza particolarmente elevata della mutazione Ile68Leu. 
La consapevolezza dell’esistenza di queste forme di ATTRm è essenziale per una diagnosi corretta, soprattutto in ambito cardiologico.

description: We evaluate tunneling rates into/from a voltage biased quantum wire containing weak backscattering defect. Interacting electrons in such a wire form a true nonequilibrium state of the Luttinger liquid (LL). This state is created due to inelastic electron backscattering leading to the emission of nonequilibrium plasmons with typical frequency $\hbar ω\leq U$. The tunneling rates are split into two edges. The tunneling exponent at the Fermi edge is positive and equals that of the equilibrium LL, while the exponent at the side edge $E_F-U$ is negative if Coulomb interaction is not too strong.

ATP-GATED P2X7 RECEPTOR AS A NOVEL CHECKPOINT MOLECULE IN T EFFECTOR/MEMORY CELL FUNCTION
Creators: name: ROTTOLI, ELSA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2018

description: Adenosine triphosphate is an ubiquitous extracellular messenger, which activates P2 purinergic receptors in the plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells. Activation of P2 receptors regulates many cellular functions ranging from survival and proliferation to apoptosis. The final effect of extracellular ATP on a cell depends on the composition of P2 receptor expressed on its surface. We showed that T effector/memory (TEM) cells express high levels of P2rx7 encoding for the ATP-gated ionotropic P2X7 receptor subtype. The deletion of the gene in these cells results in increased survival and cell proliferation both in vitro and in an in vivo model of homeostatic expansion. P2rx7-/- TEM cells are characterized by a bioenergetic advantage with respect to wild-type (WT) cells and morphometric analysis of mitochondria revealed that P2rx7-/- TEM cells are characterized by a fused mitochondria network, while WT TEM cells have more fissed mitochondria. Microarray gene expression analysis showed that P2rx7-/- TEM cells clustered together and separately from WT cells. Among differentially expressed genes we identified cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 1A (Cdkn1a), encoding for p21Waf1/Cip1, as a transcript upregulated in WT cells. P21 inhibits progression through G1 to S phase in mammalian cells and it is upregulated in senescent cells. We demonstrated that P2X7 signaling directly upregulated Cdkn1a in TEM cells and this resulted in a block in cell cycle progression. We hypothesize that P2X7 receptor could induce premature senescence in TEM cells. Accordingly, the analysis of ?-galactosidase, a marker of senescence, revealed that P2X7 induces an increase in the enzyme activity in TEM cells. Moreover, WT TEM cells stimulated with a pharmacological agonist of P2X7 are characterized by increased in Trp53 and Gadd45b expression as well as p38 MAPK phosphorylation. Moreover, P2X7 stimulation induces an increase in mitochondrial ROS and an increase in histone H2AX phosphorylation as a marker of DNA damage and cellular senescence. The tumor microenvironment is reach in extracellular ATP; we hypothesized this feature could affect TEM cells survival and function. In fact, we show that lack of P2X7 promoted expansion and accumulation of both CD4 and CD8 tumor infiltrating lymphocytes in a melanoma mouse model, thus favoring the control of tumor size. Altogether our results point to P2X7 as a checkpoint for limiting CD4 TEM cells expansion in inflammatory environments that might be targeted to implement cytotoxic T cell responses in cancer immunotherapy.

description: Il microbiota intestinale (insieme dei microrganismi che si trovano all?interno dell?apparato gastroenterico) svolge diverse funzioni e, tra queste, di particolare interesse � il suo rapporto con il sistema immunitario. Infatti, diversi studi hanno evidenziato la presenza di disbiosi non solo in corso di patologie gastroenteriche, ma anche autoimmuni ed infettive. Gli studi in medicina veterinaria sull?argomento sono ancora pochi e proprio per questo motivo, all?interno di questo progetto, � stato scelto di indagare la possibile relazione tra il microbiota intestinale e due particolari patologie infettive (la peritonite infettiva felina -FIP- e la leishmaniosi canina) la cui patogenesi � fortemente influenzata dal tipo di risposta immunitaria sviluppata dall?ospite. Gli scopi di questo progetto sono quindi stati: la valutazione del microbiota intestinale in gatti affetti o meno da FIP (studio I). Dal momento che diagnosi in vivo di FIP risulta spesso difficoltosa, � stato valutato il potenziale, come biomarker di FIP, della paraoxonasi-1, una proteina di fase acuta negativa fortemente influenzata da importanti stati ossidativi (studi II e III). Per lo stesso motivo � stata valutata la correlazione tra le performance diagnostiche di istopatologia, immunoistochimica e RT-PCR su differenti organi (studio IV). Infine, � stata indagata la composizione del microbiota intestinale in cani infetti o meno da Leishmania spp., correlando i risultati ottenuti con le differenti popolazioni leucocitarie valutate mediante citofluorimetria (studi V e VI). I risultati ottenuti da questo progetto hanno fornito delle indicazioni preliminari sulla composizione del microbiota intestinale in gatti affetti da FIP o positivi per Coronavirus, che necessitano per� un approfondimento su un gruppo di studio pi� ampio (studio I). � stato possibile determinare gli intervalli di riferimento della paraoxonasi-1 nel gatto ed evidenziare le sue buone performance come marker diagnostico in corso di FIP (studi II e III). Nonostante l?immunoistochimica rimanga il gold standard per la diagnosi di FIP, l?associazione con RT-PCR potrebbe ridurre gli errori diagnostici, vista la buona correlazione tra le due metodiche (studio IV). Infine, la valutazione della composizione del microbiota e delle popolazioni leucocitarie in cani affetti da leishmaniosi ha messo in luce delle differenze significative sia rispetto ai cani sani, che agli esposti asintomatici. Questi risultati sono incoraggianti e possono fungere da punto di partenza per ulteriori indagini (studi V e VI).
Institutional Quality and the Wealth of Autocrats

description: One frequently given explanation for why autocrats maintain corrupt and inefficient institutions is that the autocrats benefit personally even though the citizens of their countries are worse off. The empirical evidence does not support this hypothesis. Autocrats in countries with low-quality institutions do tend to be wealthy, but typically, they were wealthy before they assumed power. A plausible explanation, consistent with the data, is that wealthy individuals in countries with inefficient and corrupt institutions face the threat of having their wealth appropriated by government, so have the incentive to use some of their wealth to seek political power to protect the rest of their wealth from confiscation. While autocrats may use government institutions to increase their wealth, autocrats in countries with low-quality institutions tend to be wealthy when they assume power, because wealthy individuals have the incentive to use their wealth to acquire political power to protect themselves from a potentially predatory government.

description: We present 3D spectroscopic observations of a sample of 10 nearby galaxies with the AAOmega-SPIRAL integral field spectrograph on the 3.9m AAT, the largest survey of its kind to date. The double-beam spectrograph provides spatial maps in a range of spectral diagnostics: [OIII] 5007, H-beta, Mg-b, NaD, [OI] 6300, H-alpha, [NII] 6583, [SII] 6717, 6731. All of the objects in our survey show extensive wind-driven filamentation along the minor axis, in addition to large-scale disk rotation. Our sample can be divided into either starburst galaxies or active galactic nuclei (AGN), although some objects appear to be a combination of these. The total ionizing photon budget available to both classes of galaxies is sufficient to ionise all of the wind-blown filamentation out to large radius. We find however that while AGN photoionisation always dominates in the wind filaments, this is not the case in starburst galaxies where shock ionisation dominates. This clearly indicates that after the onset of star formation, there is a substantial delay (> 10 Myr) before a starburst wind develops. We show why this behavior is expected by deriving ``ionisation'' and dynamical timescales for both AGNs and starbursts. We establish a sequence of events that lead to the onset of a galactic wind. The clear signature provided by the ionisation timescale is arguably the strongest evidence yet that the starburst phenomenon is an impulsive event. A well-defined ionisation timescale is not expected in galaxies with a protracted history of circumnuclear star formation. Our 3D data provide important templates for comparisons with high redshift galaxies.[Abridged]

description: Within the next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD (pQCD) parton model, suppression of away-side hadron spectra associated with a high $p_{T}$ photon due to parton energy loss is shown to provide a complete tomographic picture of the dense matter formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions at RHIC. Dictated by the shape of the $γ$-triggered jet spectrum in NLO pQCD, hadron spectra at large $z_T=p_T^{h}/p_T^γ \stackrel{>}{\sim} 1$ are more susceptible to parton energy loss and therefore are dominated by surface emission of $γ$-triggered jets, whereas small $z_{T}$ hadrons mainly come from fragmentation of jets with reduced energy from volume emission. These lead to different centrality dependence of the hadron suppression in different regions of $z_{T}$.

description: Defining the energy function as the negative logarithm of the density, we explore the energy landscape of a distribution via the tree of sublevel sets of its energy. This tree represents the hierarchy among the connected components of the sublevel sets. We propose ways to annotate the tree so that it provides information on both topological and statistical aspects of the distribution, such as the local energy minima (local modes), their local domains and volumes, and the barriers between them. We develop a computational method to estimate the tree and reconstruct the energy landscape from Monte Carlo samples simulated at a wide energy range of a distribution. This method can be applied to any arbitrary distribution on a space with defined connectedness. We test the method on multimodal distributions and posterior distributions to show that our estimated trees are accurate compared to theoretical values. When used to perform Bayesian inference of DNA sequence segmentation, this approach reveals much more information than the standard approach based on marginal posterior distributions.

description: Generating word (tag) clouds is a powerful data visualization technique that allows people to get easily acquainted with the content of a large collection of textual documents and identify their subject domains for a matter of seconds, without reading them at all. This paper suggests applying word clouds visualization to conference management systems (specialized document management and decision support systems) in order to support and facilitate decision making in at least two important processes - forming the Programme Committee by inviting suitable reviewers and manual (re)assignment of reviewers to papers. Word clouds proved to be very useful tool for fast identification of papers' subject domain and reviewers' competences.

We then study its decoherence in a photon-loss channel in term of the negativity of WF by deriving the analytical expression of WF for PASTS. It is found that the WF with single photon-added is always partial negative for the arbitrary values of n and the squeezing parameter r.

description: We propose a method for detecting single chiral phonons that will enable their use as dark-matter detectors. We suggest metal--organic frameworks (MOFs) as detector materials, as their flexibility yields low-energy chiral phonons with measurable magnetic moments, and their anisotropy leads to directional sensitivity, which mitigates background contamination. To demonstrate our proposal, we calculate the phononic structure of the MOF InF$_3$($4,4'$-bipyridine), and show that it has highly chiral acoustic phonons. Detection of such chiral phonons via their magnetic moments would dramatically lower the excitation energy threshold for dark matter detection to the energy of a single phonon. We show that single phonon detection in a MOF would extend detector reach ten or more orders of magnitude below current limits, enabling exploration of a multitude of as-yet-unprobed dark matter candidates.

DESIGN, CHARACTERIZATION AND APPLICATION OF HETEROGENEOUS SILICA SUPPORTED CATALYSTS, BASED ON PD NANOPARTICLES AND METAL SINGLE SITES (RH, CU)

description: The immobilization of metal NPs and metal single sites on silica support materials offers an interesting approach to heterogeneized catalysts for a multitude of different reactions. Selective hydrogenation reactions of prochiral substrates, such as (hetero-)aromatics, can be catalyzed by heterogeneized ?hybrid catalysts? of the type RhI-Pd0/SiO2, consisting of silica-supported PdNPs and chiral Rh(I) phosphine single sites. These new ?hybrid catalysts? were reported in the recent years, revealing the synergetic effect between Pd and Rh. Regarding the hydrogenation of benzene/toluene, it could be shown that RhI-Pd0/SiO2 are 4 times more active than Pd0/SiO2. In particular, the scope of this work was the extension of the ?hybrid catalysts? by the use of chiral phosphine ligands. PdNPs were immobilized onto various mesoporous silica supports, having an ordered (e.g. MCM-41, SBA-15) or a non-ordered (e.g. Davisil B, Davison 62) structure, both in powdery form and as monoliths. Different immobilization methods were tested (impregnation, ionic exchange, CVD), whereupon CVD proved to be a promising procedure, giving high Pd loadings up to 1.95 wt % (expected: 2 wt %). Moreover, this method was suitable for both powdery silica materials and silica monoliths. Silica-supported chiral Cu(I) complexes of the type [CuI(PC-L*)]CF3SO3/SiO2 can be applied in the asymmetric cyclopropanation of ?-methyl styrene with ethyl diazoacetate (EDA). Regarding the different mesoporous ordered- and non-ordered silica supports (MCM-41, SBA-15, Davisil B, Aerosil, basic silica), SBA-15 turned out to be the most-suitable one, giving excellent Cu loadings up to 1.79 wt %. The application of the [CuI(PC-L*)]CF3SO3/SiO2 catalysts gave the cyclopropanes in high yields (83 %). In this context, the recyclability of [CuI(PC-L*)]CF3SO3/SiO2 could be proven. Silica monoliths are very advantageous and thus gladly used as support material: Besides their easy handling, they allow to work in flow conditions without packing a reactor. Within this work, silica monoliths were grafted and subsequently applied in the dehydration of fructose to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). It was shown that the reaction works in batch as well as in flow, both homogeneously (using the sole unsupported grafting agent) and heterogeneously (using blank or grafted silica monoliths).

description: Background: Epidemiological studies evidence increasing rates of self-harm within the United Kingdom and pressure on the National Health Service to adequately support individuals who engage in repetitive self-harm. Repetitive self-harm is defined as five or more occurrences of SH within a one-year period. There is a developing evidence base to suggest that repetitive self-harm can be conceptualised as an addictive behaviour, but results are conflicting. Methodology: This research aimed to qualitatively explore whether repetitive self-harm is experienced as an addictive behaviour, using existing theories and knowledges about addiction and addictive behaviours. Semi-structured interviews were completed with 15 adults aged 20-61 years with current or past experience of repetitive self-harm. Constructivist Grounded Theory methodology was used to guide the collection and analysis of data. Findings: A conceptual model illustrating the addictive processes within repetitive self-harm was co-constructed, highlighting the dynamic and interacting factors that maintain engagement. Categories were identified that depicted participants journeys with self-harm over time: ‘Starting’ and soon ‘Needing to punish myself’ led on to self-harm ‘Feeling addictive’. Once they had engaged with repetitive self-harm ‘Having the urge to self-harm’ and a ‘Conflicting relationship with self-harm and self’ was ongoing. Throughout each incidence of SH, participants experienced a cycle of processes that interacted, describing this as the “Cycle of SH” involving: ‘Managing emotions’, ‘Allowing me to function’, ‘Caring for myself’, ‘Controlling’ and ‘Feeling guilt and shame after self-harm’. It was constructed that ‘Responding to others’ reactions’ interacted with the “Cycle of SH” but also led to ‘Breaking the cycle’. For some, this led to ‘Relapsing’ and returning to the cycle. Conclusions and implications: This work evidences the potential benefits of conceptualising RSH as an addictive behaviour, in particular drawing upon the wealth of models to understand, treat and recover. The findings have generated new knowledges with the potential to influence clinical understanding, treatment and seek to reduce misconceptions and stigma around SH. Clinical, policy and research invitations are discussed.

description: Magnetic reconnection has been suggested to play an important role in the dynamics and energetics of plasma turbulence by spacecraft observations, simulations and theory over the past two decades, and recently, by magnetosheath observations of MMS. A new method based on magnetic flux transport (MFT) has been developed to identify reconnection activity in turbulent plasmas. This method is applied to a gyrokinetic simulation of two-dimensional (2D) plasma turbulence. Results on the identification of three active reconnection X-points are reported. The first two X-points have developed bi-directional electron outflow jets. Beyond the category of electron-only reconnection, the third X-point does not have bi-directional electron outflow jets because the flow is modified by turbulence. In all cases, this method successfully identifies active reconnection through clear inward and outward flux transport around the X-points. This transport pattern defines reconnection and produces a new quadrupolar structure in the divergence of MFT. This method is expected to be applicable to spacecraft missions such as MMS, Parker Solar Probe, and Solar Orbiter.

description: Experimental results on the thermal desorption of benzene (C6H6) from amorphous silica (SiO2) are presented. The amorphous SiO2 substrate was imaged using atomic force microscopy (AFM), revealing a surface morphology reminiscent of that of interplanetary dust particles (IDPs). Temperature programmed desorption (TPD) experiments were conducted for a wide range of C6H6 exposures, yielding information on both C6H6-SiO2 interactions and the C6H6-C6H6 interactions present in the bulk C6H6 ice. The low coverage experiments reveal complicated desorption behaviour that results both from porosity and roughness in the SiO2 substrate, and repulsive interactions between C6H6 molecules. Kinetic parameters were obtained through a combination of direct analysis of the TPD traces and kinetic modelling, demonstrating the coverage dependence of both desorption energy and pre-exponential factor. Experiments were also performed whereby the pores were blocked by pre-exposure of the SiO2 to water vapour. C6H6 was observed to be adsorbed preferentially on the SiO2 film not covered by H2O at the temperature at which these experiments were performed. This observation means that intermolecular repulsion likely becomes important at smaller C6H6 exposures on grains with a H2O mantle. Kinetic modelling of C6H6 multilayer desorption yields kinetic parameters in good agreement with previous studies, with the SiO2 having little impact on the desorption beyond the first few layers.

Strong cosmic censorship for solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell field equations with polarized Gowdy symmetry

description: A proof of strong cosmic censorship is presented for a class of solutions of the Einstein-Maxwell equations, those with polarized Gowdy symmetry. A key element of the argument is the observation that by means of a suitable choice of variables the central equations in this problem can be written in a form where they are identical to the central equations for general (i.e. non-polarized) vacuum Gowdy spacetimes. Using this it is seen that the deep results of Ringström on strong cosmic censorship in the vacuum case have implications for the Einstein-Maxwell case. Working out the geometrical meaning of these analytical results leads to the main conclusion.

description: We discuss the tuning of the anisotropic clover action and Symanzik-improved gauge action in lattice perturbation theory. The fermion action is constructed from stout-smeared spatial links, which complicates the calculation considerably. In addition, the full quark-mass dependence of the action parameters is included in this study. We present results for the fermion and gauge aspect ratios for varying bare aspect ratios, quark masses and smearing parameters.

Bereaved Parents’ Narratives of their Journeys Through Grief

Narrative Analysis

description: Rationale and aims: The death of a child is understood to be a particularly devastating form of loss for parents, and there remains a need to further understand bereaved parents’ experiences in order to inform the support offered to them. Empirical studies that explore bereaved parents’ experiences of grief over time in a UK context using narrative inquiry are scarce. The study aims to explore the stories bereaved parents tell about adjusting to living life following bereavement, in order to further understand bereaved parents’ experiences of grief over time and inform the interventions offered to support them. Methodology: A qualitative design, specifically a narrative inquiry, was utilised to explore the accounts of eight bereaved parents, who self-identified as having ‘gradually adjusted’ to living life without their child. Recruitment was facilitated by a peer-support charity for bereaved parents, and a self-selecting sampling method was used. Data was gathered via semi-structured interviews, which were recorded, transcribed and analysed individually and then collectively using thematic, structural and performance narrative analysis methodologies. Findings: Participants described the loss of their child as an earth-shattering disaster, and told stories of surviving and adapting to a world irrevocably altered by loss. Participants described initial grief which felt non-survivable, and later grief which felt never-ending and poorly understood by others, with the exception of other bereaved parents. Implications: This research provides new insight into the challenges faced by bereaved parents, particularly in their later grief, which has implications regarding the timing of interventions for bereaved parents. The study findings also highlight the need for professionals to be informed regarding the never-ending nature of parental grief, and for bereaved parents to have opportunities to connect with one another.

description: This qualitative study explores the experiences of practitioners and students in relation to the ‘newborn and infant physical examination’ (NIPE). Previous research relating to the NIPE has given some insight into practice issues, including why midwives may have refrained from undertaking these examinations and whether it was appropriate to include the NIPE within pre-registration midwifery curricula. This study examines the views of different practitioner groups including consultant neonatologists, midwifery managers, midwives, practice education midwives and student midwives. The purpose was to gain a detailed perspective of practitioners’ experiences; highlighting and comparing themes that were similar and those that were specific to the different participant groups. Data were collected through student-midwife focus groups and semi-structured interviews with doctors and midwifery staff. The participants self-volunteered across three large NHS Trust sites that were linked to a local university within the South of England. The main findings indicate that environmental culture and interprofessional collaboration has a major impact on practitioners’ experiences and those of the student midwives. There was a notable disparity regarding consistency of training, supervision and assessment processes between junior doctors and midwives. There was a link between this inconsistency and the need for strong managerial leadership and effective collaboration between different professional disciplines. Effective and pro-active leadership was also associated with the provision of equipment, referral guidelines, usefulness of NIPE clinics, knowledge and skill updates and the unnecessary re-assessment of newly qualified NIPE practitioners. Recommendations for NIPE education, practice and future research are provided in relation to both local and national policies and practices. A key recommendation is to build interdisciplinary respect and collaboration into everyday practice, as this has a significant effect on the quality of NIPE provision.
