SCIENCE TECHNOLOGY ENGINEERING AND MATHS (STEM) EMPLOYER COLLABORATIONS WITH UNIVERSITY AND PRE-UNIVERSITY (16-19 YEARS) …

Stem education interventions

Dogaru C, Gartland C.
GSID: MYVunGDags8J
C Gartland, S Nolan, P Ayling, C Dogaru - INTED2020 Proceedings, 2020 - library.iated.org

This paper presents the findings and implications of a rapid systematic review of literature considering the impacts of Science Technology Engineering and Maths (STEM) employer collaborations with university and pre-university (16-19 years) settings. Over the last two decades in...

Marketing participation? Student ambassadors' contribution to widening participation schemes in engineering and medicine at two contrasting universities

Broadening Participation in Engineering AND Program Evaluation

Gartland C.
GSID: RyfImUTmb0AJ
C Gartland - Journal of widening participation and lifelong learning, 2013 - oars.uos.ac.uk

Under New Labour administrations, employing student ambassadors for widening participation (WP) outreach work became popular with higher education institutions (HEIs). Ambassadors were held to be effective in aspiration-and attainment-raising work and cited as role models for diverse groups of...

Evaluating a programme for the continuing professional development of STEM teachers working within inclusive secondary schools in the UK

STEM education program evaluation

Gartland C.
GSID: JcSuG1C2Uq4J
P Kutnick, C Gartland, D Good - International Journal of Educational …, 2022 - Elsevier

Preparing teachers to enhance students' STEM education usually takes place via continuing professional (CPD) programmes. Many STEM-CPD programmes are criticised for short-term, information-dominated, and non-interdisciplinary approaches that lack critical consideration of learning communities, teaching contexts or STEM teaching is...

Validity of the Handheld Dynamometer Compared with an Isokinetic Dynamometer in Measuring Peak Hip Extension Strength.

Physiotherapy Canada. Physiotherapie Canada

Keep H, Luu L, Berson A, Garland SJ.
PMID: 27504043
Physiother Can. 2016;68(1):15-22. doi: 10.3138/ptc.2014-62.

PURPOSE: To determine whether the handheld dynamometer (HHD) is an appropriate tool to assess and quantify peak hip extension strength in prone standing position by (1) evaluating the concurrent validity of the HHD versus an isokinetic dynamometer (IKD), (2)...

A Candidate Gene Association Study of Bone Mineral Density in an Iranian Population.

Frontiers in endocrinology

Dastgheib SA, Gartland A, Tabei SM, Omrani GR, Teare MD.
PMID: 27833587
Front Endocrinol (Lausanne). 2016 Oct 27;7:141. doi: 10.3389/fendo.2016.00141. eCollection 2016.

The genetic epidemiology of variation in bone mineral density (BMD) and osteoporosis is not well studied in Iranian populations and needs more research. We report a candidate gene association study of BMD variation in a healthy cross-sectional study of...

Elevated body mass index as a risk factor for chronic kidney disease: current perspectives.

Diabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy

Garland JS.
PMID: 25114577
Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes. 2014 Jul 29;7:347-55. doi: 10.2147/DMSO.S46674. eCollection 2014.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined by the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative as the presence of reduced kidney function or kidney damage for a period of 3 months or greater. Obesity is considered a risk...

Dilution/extinction of community phenotypic characters to estimate relative structural diversity in mixed communities.

FEMS microbiology ecology

Garland JL, Lehman RM.
PMID: 10568842
FEMS Microbiol Ecol. 1999 Dec 01;30(4):333-343. doi: 10.1111/j.1574-6941.1999.tb00661.x.

Recent interest in microbial diversity has led to increased emphasis on the development of appropriate techniques. Structural diversity encompasses the number and distribution of separate or interacting biological entities responsible for a given function within the overall set of...

Order reconstruction in frustrated nematic twist cells.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Bisi F, Gartland EC, Rosso R, Virga EG.
PMID: 14524993
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2003 Aug;68(2):021707. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.68.021707. Epub 2003 Aug 27.

Within the Landau-de Gennes theory of liquid crystals, we study the equilibrium configurations of a nematic cell with twist boundary conditions. Under the assumption that the order tensor Q be uniaxial on both bounding plates, we find three separate...

Modeling optical properties of liquid-crystal devices by numerical solution of time-harmonic Maxwell equations.

Journal of the Optical Society of America. A, Optics, image science, and vision

Amarasinghe ND, Gartland EC, Kelly JR.
PMID: 15260266
J Opt Soc Am A Opt Image Sci Vis. 2004 Jul;21(7):1344-61. doi: 10.1364/josaa.21.001344.

We consider numerical modeling of the optical properties of devices typical of beam-steering devices based on liquid-crystal materials: two-dimensional, anisotropic and inhomogeneous dielectric properties, periodic in one dimension. A mathematical formulation of the system of second-order partial differential equations...

Universal mean-field phase diagram for biaxial nematics obtained from a minimax principle.

Physical review. E, Statistical, nonlinear, and soft matter physics

Bisi F, Virga EG, Gartland EC, De Matteis G, Sonnet AM, Durand GE.
PMID: 16802956
Phys Rev E Stat Nonlin Soft Matter Phys. 2006 May;73(5):051709. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevE.73.051709. Epub 2006 May 19.

We study a class of quadratic Hamiltonians which describe both fully attractive and partly repulsive molecular interactions, characteristic of biaxial liquid crystal molecules. To treat the partly repulsive interactions we establish a minimax principle for the associated mean-field free...

New developments in pharmacotherapy of pediatric anxiety disorders.

Expert review of neurotherapeutics

Garland EJ.
PMID: 19811001
Expert Rev Neurother. 2002 Mar;2(2):203-11. doi: 10.1586/14737175.2.2.203.

Anxiety disorders affect about 10% of children and adolescents, are often chronic and impair psychological, academic and social functioning. Recent studies have clearly demonstrated the efficacy of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors in young people with obsessive-compulsive disorder and mixed...
