Singapore schools and professional learning communities: Teacher professional development and school leadership in an Asian hierarchical system

Cultural Transformation in the Geoscience Community AND Program Evaluation

Dimmock C, Hairon S.
GSID: 7Ml4tT8TEcQJ
S Hairon, C Dimmock - Educational review, 2012 - Taylor & Francis

While the literature on professional learning communities (PLCs) has proliferated, much of it derived from and contextualised in Anglo-American settings, the concept and practice of PLCs in Asian contexts of strong hierarchies have largely been ignored. Based on literature...

"It gives them more options": preferences for preconception genetic carrier screening for fragile X syndrome in primary healthcare.

Journal of community genetics

Archibald AD, Hickerton CL, Wake SA, Jaques AM, Cohen J, Metcalfe SA.
PMID: 26842720
J Community Genet. 2016 Apr;7(2):159-71. doi: 10.1007/s12687-016-0262-8. Epub 2016 Feb 03.

This study aims to explore stakeholder views about offering population-based genetic carrier screening for fragile X syndrome. A qualitative study using interviews and focus groups with stakeholders was undertaken to allow for an in-depth exploration of views and perceptions...

Bone morphogenetic protein signaling in rotator cuff muscle atrophy and fatty infiltration.

Muscles, ligaments and tendons journal

Liu X, Joshi S, Ravishankar B, Laron D, Kim HT, Feeley BT.
PMID: 26261790
Muscles Ligaments Tendons J. 2015 Jul 03;5(2):113-9. eCollection 2015.

BACKGROUND: reduced mass (atrophy) and increased fat content (fatty infiltration) of rotator cuff muscles are common complications of large or massive rotator cuff (RC) tears, and are believed to be irreversible even after tendon repairs. Clinically, both muscle atrophy...

Evaporation of drops on two parallel fibers: influence of the liquid morphology and fiber elasticity.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids

Duprat C, Bick AD, Warren PB, Stone HA.
PMID: 23705986
Langmuir. 2013 Jun 25;29(25):7857-63. doi: 10.1021/la4011532. Epub 2013 Jun 05.

We investigate experimentally the evaporation of liquid accumulated on a pair of parallel fibers, rigid or flexible. The liquid wetting the fibers can adopt two distinct morphologies: a compact drop shape, whose evaporation dynamics is similar to that of...

How the Organic Food System Supports Sustainable Diets and Translates These into Practice.

Frontiers in nutrition

Strassner C, Cavoski I, Di Cagno R, Kahl J, Kesse-Guyot E, Lairon D, Lampkin N, Løes AK, Matt D, Niggli U, Paoletti F, Pehme S, Rembiałkowska E, Schader C, Stolze M.

Front Nutr. 2015 Jun 29;2:19. doi: 10.3389/fnut.2015.00019. eCollection 2015.

Organic production and consumption provide a delineated food system that can be explored for its potential contribution to sustainable diets. While organic agriculture improves the sustainability performance on the production side, critical reflections are made on how organic consumption...

Measurement of the hydrogen 1S- 2S transition frequency by phase coherent comparison with a microwave cesium fountain clock.

Physical review letters

Niering M, Holzwarth R, Reichert J, Pokasov P, Udem T, Weitz M, Hansch TW, Lemonde P, Santarelli G, Abgrall M, Laurent P, Salomon C, Clairon A.
PMID: 10990978
Phys Rev Lett. 2000 Jun 12;84(24):5496-9. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.84.5496.

We report on an absolute frequency measurement of the hydrogen 1S-2S two-photon transition in a cold atomic beam with an accuracy of 1.8 parts in 10(14). Our experimental result of 2 466 061 413 187 103(46) Hz has been...

New Accurate Fit of an Extended Set of Saturation Data for the nu(3) Band of SF(6): Comparison of Hamiltonians in the Spherical and Cubic Tensor Formalisms.

Journal of molecular spectroscopy

Acef O, Bordé CJ, Clairon A, Pierre G, Sartakov B.
PMID: 10637104
J Mol Spectrosc. 2000 Feb;199(2):188-204. doi: 10.1006/jmsp.1999.8015.

An extended set of 321 frequencies of vibration-rotation lines of the nu(3) band of SF(6) has been measured by saturation spectroscopy using various isotopic species of CO(2). A least-squares fit of these data has been performed using an effective...

Effect of wheat bran and wheat germ on the intestinal uptake of oleic acid, monoolein, and cholesterol in the rat.

The Journal of nutritional biochemistry

Borel P, Martigne M, Senft M, Garzino P, Lafont H, Lairon D.
PMID: 15539162
J Nutr Biochem. 1990 Jan;1(1):28-33. doi: 10.1016/0955-2863(90)90095-3.

The effects of fiber-rich wheat bran and wheat germ on the intestinal absorption of dietary cholesterol, free fatty acids, and monoglycerides were studied. Rats were given a test meal containing [(14)C]oleic acid, [(14)C]monoolein, and [(3)H]cholesterol. After a 1-hour digestion...

Tuberculosis in travellers.

Travel medicine and infectious disease

Johnston VJ, Grant AD.
PMID: 17291919
Travel Med Infect Dis. 2003 Nov;1(4):205-12. doi: 10.1016/j.tmaid.2003.11.002.

Tuberculosis (TB) incidence is increasing in many countries which are popular with international travellers. The development of active TB is a two-stage process; the risk of acquiring new TB infection depends primarily on the risk of contact with an...
