Augmenting K-means Clustering with Qualitative Data to Discover Engagement Patterns of Older Adults with Multimorbidity when using Digital Health Technologies: Findings from a Proof-of-Concept Trial
(2024)Background: Multiple chronic conditions (multimorbidity) are becoming more prevalent among aging populations. Digital health technologies have the potential to assist in the self-management of multimorbidity, improving the ... -

Barrier-free and interpreter-free. Deaf signers and hearing sign language interpreters' perspectives on an ideal world (Belgium, Flanders)
(2023)Globally, deaf associations and sign language interpreters’ organizations support the idea that interpreting services are equivalent to access and inclusion for deaf people. Researchers have challenged this assumption by ... -
Bayesian kernel projections for classification of high dimensional data
(2011)A Bayesian multi-category kernel classification method is proposed. The algorithm performs the classification of the projections of the data to the principal axes of the feature space. The advantage of this approach is ... -
Behavioural evidence for task-dependent, 'what' versus 'where' processing within and across modalities
(The Psychonomic Society, 2008)Task-dependent information processing for the purpose of recognition or spatial perception is considered a principle common to all the main sensory modalities. Using a dual-task interference paradigm, we investigated the ... -
Biophysical stimuli induced by passive movements compensate for lack of skeletal muscle during embryonic skeletogenesis
(University of Edinburgh (datashare), 2011)In genetically modified mice with abnormal skeletal muscle development, bones and joints are differentially affected by the lack of skeletal muscle.We hypothesise that unequal levels of biophysical stimuli in the ... -
Boys do it the right way: Sex-dependent amygdala lateralization during face processing in adolescents
(2011)Previous studies have observed a sex-dependent lateralization of amygdala activation related to emotional memory. Specifically, it was shown that the activity of the right amygdala correlates significantly stronger with ... -
Building capacity for mainstreaming nature-based solutions into environmental policy and landscape planning
(2020)Nature-based solutions (NBS) is a term often used to refer to adequate green infrastructure that provides multiple benefits to society whilst addressing societal challenges. They are defined as actions to protect, sustainably ... -
Building the Seshat Ontology for a Global History Databank
(Springer, 2016)This paper describes OWL ontology re-engineering from the wiki-based social science codebook (thesaurus) developed by the Seshat: Global History Databank. The ontology describes human history as a set of over 1500 time ... -
Calibration of cosmogenic 36Cl production rates from Ca and K spallation in lava flows from Mt. Etna (38?N, Italy) and Payun Matru (36?S, Argentina)
(2011)Published cosmogenic 36Cl production rates from Ca and K spallation differ by almost a factor of 2. In this paper we determine production rates of 36Cl from Ca and K in samples of known age containing little Cl. Ca-rich ... -
Capacity-building and networking events for nature-based solutions and re-naturing in Malta
(2020)Nature-based solutions (NbS) have the potential to build climate resilience and tackle key societal challenges while also providing multiple co-benefits to biodiversity and human well-being. The demand for nature-based ... -

The case for mainstreaming nature-based solutions into integrated catchment management in Ireland
(2020)The intensification of European policies, agreements and regulations for climate action, water resources, energy, agriculture and forestry, and biodiversity is pressurising governments to adopt a ... -
CENDARI s Grand Challenges: Building, Contextualising and Sustaining a New Knowledge Infrastructure.
(2013)In its widest sense, infrastructure allows us as finite individuals to achieve beyond our individual capacity to know, to do, to see. But even within the more narrow context of research infrastructures, broad and diverse ... -
Characterising Complexity in Solar Magnetogram Data using a Wavelet-based Segmentation Method
(2010)The multifractal nature of solar photospheric magnetic structures are studied using the 2D wavelet transform modulus maxima (WTMM) method. This relies on computing partition functions from the wavelet transform skeleton ... -
Charmonium spectroscopy from an anisotropic lattice study
(2011)We present a progress report on our study of the charmonium spectrum in full QCD on anisotropic lattices generated by the Hadron Spectrum Collaboration. We adopt a large basis of interpolating operators to extract the ... -
Chemical microscopy and nanoscopy of bio-materials and living cells, IRMMW-THz
(IEEE, 2010)Raman microspectroscopy of human sperm cells and nearfield infrared microscopy of nanoscale biomaterials like nanografted DNA have been performed. A newly developed station for the ANKA-IR2 beamline combines several ... -
Citizen Science in Ireland
(2021)Ireland has a rich history of public engagement with science and the growing number of national citizen science initiatives is in keeping with developments seen in other European countries. This paper explores several ...
