Sensor selection to improve estimates of particulate matter concentration from a low-cost network
(2018-09-08)Deployment of low-cost sensors in the field is increasingly popular. However, each sensor requires on-site calibration to increase the accuracy of the measurements. We established a laboratory method, the Average Slope ... -
TNM cancer staging: can it help develop a novel staging system for type 2 diabetes?
(2018-11-28)Type 2 diabetes (DM2) constitutes 90%–95% of the diabetes cases and is increasing at an alarming rate in the world. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that more than 29 million people in the ... -
Top-down pulses reduce prey population sizes and persistence
(2018-06-19)Resource pulses are well documented and have important consequences for population dynamics relative to continuous inputs. However, pulses of top-down factors (e.g. predation) are less explored and appreciated in the ... -
The variability of song variability in zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata) populations
(2019-04-30)Birdsong is a classic example of a learned social behaviour. Song behaviour is also influenced by genetic factors, and understanding the relative contributions of genetic and environmental influences remains a major goal. ... -
