The Syrian Protestant College
(Freie Universit?t Berlin, 2014)In late 1916, the Armenian and Syrian Relief Committee arranged for supplies to be delivered by the U.S. Naval Collier USS Caesar to the Red Cross in Beirut to relieve famine in Mount Lebanon. Political obstruction diverted ... -
Magnetization and anisotropy of cobalt ferrite thin films
(2017)The magnetization of thin films of cobalt ferrite frequently falls far below the bulk value of 455kAm−1, which corresponds to an inverse cation distribution in the spinel structure with a significant orbital moment of about ... -
Orphans (Ottoman Empire/Middle East)
(2014)War, massacres, displacement, famine and economic crisis left over 100,000 children orphaned across the Ottoman Empire during WWI. Though most orphans were left to fend for themselves, as their numbers swelled, state and ... -
From ocean to mantle: new evidence for U-cycling with implications for the HIMU source and the secular Pb isotope evolution of Earth's mantle
(2018)Of the isotopically distinctive mantle domains, the so-called HIMU (“high-μ”; μ = 238U/204Pb) source is the most extreme, and its genesis continues to be debated. We report very strong U enrichment at unchanged Th ... -

Photochemically active DNA-intercalating ruthenium and related complexes-insights by combining crystallography and transient spectroscopy
(2017)Recent research on the study of the interaction of ruthenium polypyridyl compounds and defined sequence nucleic acids is reviewed. Particular emphasis is paid to complexes [Ru(LL)2(Int)]2+ containing potentially intercalating ... -
Genome-wide mega-analysis identifies 16 loci and highlights diverse biological mechanisms in the common epilepsies.
(2018)The epilepsies affect around 65 million people worldwide and have a substantial missing heritability component. We report a genome-wide mega-analysis involving 15,212 individuals with epilepsy and 29,677 controls, which ... -
Extracranial and Intracranial Vasculopathy With "Moyamoya Phenomenon" in Association With Alagille Syndrome.
(2019)Background: Alagille syndrome (AGS) is an autosomal-dominant, multisystem disorder caused by mutations in the JAG1 gene. Case Description: A 34-year-old man was referred to our service 10 years ago with focal seizures ... -
The influence of study-level inference models and study set size on coordinate-based fMRI meta-analyses
(Frontiers Media, 2018)Given the increasing amount of neuroimaging studies, there is a growing need to summarize published results. Coordinate-based meta-analyses use the locations of statistically significant local maxima with possibly the ... -
Structural brain abnormalities in the common epilepsies assessed in a worldwide ENIGMA study
(Oxford University Press, 2018)Progressive functional decline in the epilepsies is largely unexplained. We formed the ENIGMA-Epilepsy consortium to understand factors that influence brain measures in epilepsy, pooling data from 24 research centres in ... -
Nanoscale neuroelectrode modification via sub-20 nm silicon nanowires through self-assembly of block copolymers
(2015)Neuroelectrodes are susceptible to deterioration via scar encapsulation following implantation. Biologically relevant nanosurfaces which mimic the biological length scale may prevent this deterioration via the modulation ... -
The kinetics of swelling in block copolymer thin films during "solvo-microwave'' and solvo-thermal annealing: The effect of vapour pressure rate
(2015)We have studied the kinetics of swelling in block copolymer thin films by monitoring the pressure and temperature in situ during “solvo-microwave”[1] and solvo-thermal annealing. The results on poly (styrene-b-lactic acid) ... -
Dynamics of polymer film formation during spin coating
(2014)Standard models explaining the spin coating of polymer solutions generally fail to describe the early stages of film formation, when hydrodynamic forces control the solution behavior. Using in situ light scattering alongside ... -
Review-Recent Advances in Block-Copolymer Nanostructured Subwavelength Antireflective Surfaces
(2020)Nanostructured Anti-Reflective (AR) surfaces have attracted a focused attention during the last few years and offer an alternative to AR coatings. Recent nanopatterning approaches have allowed fabrication of bioinspired ... -
Highly Sensitive Electromechanical Piezoresistive Pressure Sensors Based on Large-Area Layered PtSe2 Films
(2018)Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials are ideal for micro- and nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS) due to their ultimate thinness. Platinum diselenide (PtSe2), an exciting and unexplored 2D transition metal ... -
Optimized single-layer MoS2 field-effect transistors by non-covalent functionalisation
(2018)Field-effect transistors (FETs) with non-covalently functionalised molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) channels grown by chemical vapourdeposition (CVD) on SiO2are reported. The dangling-bond-freesurface of MoS2was functionalised ... -
Wide Spectral Photoresponse of Layered Platinum Diselenide-Based Photodiodes
(2018)Platinum diselenide (PtSe2) is a group-10 transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) that has unique electronic properties, in particular a semimetal-to-semiconductor transition when going from bulk to monolayer form. We report ... -
Review Organic-Inorganic Hybrid Functional Materials: An Integrated Platform for Applied Technologies
(2018)Hybrid functional materials, constituting both inorganic and organic components, are considered potential platforms for applications in extremely diverse fields such as optics, micro-electronics, transportation, health, ... -
Near East Relief
(Freie Universität Berlin, 2014)Near East Relief was formed in 1915 to address the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of the Armenian genocide. By the end of the war, the organization had transformed into a vast aid campaign that focused on orphans ... -
The Caesar Affair
(2014)In late 1916, the Armenian and Syrian Relief Committee arranged for supplies to be delivered by the U.S. Naval Collier USS Caesar to the Red Cross in Beirut to relieve famine in Mount Lebanon. Political obstruction ...
