Connecting People to Climate Change Action: Informing Participatory Frameworks for the National Dialogue on Climate Action (C-CHANGE)
(Environmental Protection Agency, 2022)Ireland has committed to becoming a net-zero and climate-neutral economy by 2050. The Climate Action and Low Carbon Development Act set this ambition in legislation, while the Climate Action Plan defines the pathway ... -
A prospective, real-world, multinational study of naloxegol for patients with cancer pain diagnosed with opioid-induced constipation - the NACASY Study
(2022)The Naloxegol Cancer Study (NACASY) was a multinational European study aimed to evaluate the 4-week safety and efficacy of naloxegol in a real-world setting in patients with cancer pain diagnosed with opioid-induced ... -
What causes energy and transport poverty in Ireland? Analysing demographic, economic, and social dynamics and policy implications
(2022)Energy and transport poverty have been postulated as conditions linked by overlapping causal factors such as structural economic inequality or housing stock and affecting overlapping demographics such as family size or ... -
Fidelity of Interventions to Reduce or Prevent Stress and/or Anxiety from Pregnancy up to Two Years Postpartum: A Systematic Review
(2021)Introduction Intervention fidelity refers to whether an intervention is delivered as intended and can enhance interpretation of trial outcomes. Fidelity of interventions to reduce or prevent stress and anxiety during ... -
Evaluating the usability of a semantic environmental health data framework: approach and study
(2023)Environmental exposures transported across air, land and water can affect our health making us more susceptible to developing a disease. Therefore, researchers need to face the complex task of integrating environmental ... -
Sexual assault and fatal violence against women during the Irish War of Independence, 1919–1921: Kate Maher’s murder in context
(2021)At the height of the Irish War of Independence, 1919–1921, 45-year-old Kate Maher was brutally raped. She subsequently died of terrible wounds, almost certainly inflicted by drunken British soldiers. This article discusses ... -
The transition of a mental health facility to a COVID-19 isolation ward and unit to deliver remote inpatient mental health care
(2022)Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, mental health services were confronted with significant challenges and mental health staff have not only had to provide a continued service for, often distressed, service users but have ... -
Deep Learning Retinal Image Analysis for the Detection of CKD and Cardiovascular Risk Factors in the General Population
(2022)Background: Retinal blood vessel patterns provide an opportunity to personalize an individuals risk assessment for CKD and cardiovascular risk factors (CVRF). In this study we propose a deep learning (DL) based prediction ... -
Shining on others, I burn myself: time to disagree with Hippocrates
(2022)After 2 years of varying forms of lockdown, working (mostly) from home or under intense pressure, we have returned to in-person meetings. Yet, this transition was more intense and demanding than we considered. Yet is ... -
Stand Up, Speak Out! Racial Justice in Healthcare Education: Experiences of Minoritised Ethnic Students
(TCD, 2022)Funded by Trinity Equality Fund 2022, the Faculty of Health Sciences Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Group and Immigrant Council of Ireland launched a project entitled ‘Stand Up, Speak Out! Racial Justice in ... -
Touch in Irish performance art: Haptic encounters in Becoming Beloved (1995) and The Touching Contract (2016)
(2020)Over the last 50 years, Irish feminists have campaigned for women’s sexual health and reproductive rights including access to contraception, legal abortion and choice in maternity care and childbirth. Recent cases like Ms. ... -
Flexible solar and thermal energy conversion devices: Organic photovoltaics (OPVs), organic thermoelectric generators (OTEGs) and hybrid PV-TEG systems
(2022)Solar and thermal energy conversion are two major renewable energy technologies highly sought after in the past two decades by academia, industry, and policymakers. Besides the traditionally large-size solar and thermal ... -
Experimental Investigation of Heat Transfer Enhancement by Pulsating Flow in a Minichannel
(2021)The increasing power density requirements of next generation high performance electronic devices has resulted in ever-increasing heat flux densities which necessitates the evolution of new liquid-based heat exchange ... -
Performance evaluation of thermoelectric generators under cyclic heating
(2021)The effect of thermal cycling on thermoelectric generator (TEG) performance is investigated for six nominally identical samples subjected to the same heating cycle profile. All TEGs experienced performance degradation, ... -
Small islands and large biogeographic barriers have driven contrasting speciation patterns in Indo-Pacific sunbirds (Aves: Nectariniidae)
(2022)Birds of the Indo-Pacific have provided biologists with many foundationalinsights. This study presents evidence for strong phylogeographic structure in two sunbird species from the heart of this region, the olive-backed ... -
A computational conjugate heat transfer study of a rectangular minichannel undergoing sinusoidal flow pulsations
(2022)The development of current and next generation high performance electronic devices has led to smaller components in more densely packed spaces. The increasing power levels have resulted in ever-increasing heat flux densities ... -
An experimental evaluation of thermoelectric generator performance under cyclic heating regimes
(2022)Thermal cycling is known to adversely affect the performance and lifespan of thermoelectric generators (TEGs) yet has received limited attention to date. The current study experimentally investigates the effect of thermal ...
