Increasing Fruit and Vegetable Consumption Through a Healthy Eating Blog: A Feasibility Study.

JMIR research protocols

Caplette ME, Provencher V, Bissonnette-Maheux V, Dugrenier M, Lapointe A, Gagnon MP, Straus S, Desroches S.
PMID: 28420600
JMIR Res Protoc. 2017 Apr 18;6(4):e59. doi: 10.2196/resprot.6622.

BACKGROUND: Despite efforts made by public health organizations to improve consumption of fruits and vegetables, populations in developed countries usually eat less than the minimum recommended. Social media, such as blogs, represent a unique opportunity for improving knowledge translation...

A conceptual framework for the emerging discipline of conservation physiology.

Conservation physiology

Coristine LE, Robillard CM, Kerr JT, O'Connor CM, Lapointe D, Cooke SJ.
PMID: 27293654
Conserv Physiol. 2014 Sep 24;2(1):cou033. doi: 10.1093/conphys/cou033. eCollection 2014.

Current rates of biodiversity decline are unprecedented and largely attributed to anthropogenic influences. Given the scope and magnitude of conservation issues, policy and management interventions must maximize efficiency and efficacy. The relatively new field of conservation physiology reveals the...

BACKGROUND: Family caregivers suffer physically, mentally, and spiritually. Community volunteers play an important role in supporting patients at the end of life or former caregivers in bereavement. However, there are no research reports of volunteer services focused on maintaining...

Microbial interactions and the ecology and evolution of Hawaiian Drosophilidae.

Frontiers in microbiology

O'Connor TK, Humphrey PT, Lapoint RT, Whiteman NK, O'Grady PM.
PMID: 25566196
Front Microbiol. 2014 Dec 18;5:616. doi: 10.3389/fmicb.2014.00616. eCollection 2014.

Adaptive radiations are characterized by an increased rate of speciation and expanded range of habitats and ecological niches exploited by those species. The Hawaiian Drosophilidae is a classic adaptive radiation; a single ancestral species colonized Hawaii approximately 25 million...

Limited carbohydrate availability as a potential cause of fruit abortion in Rubus chamaemorus.

Physiologia plantarum

Jean D, Lapointe L.
PMID: 11473695
Physiol Plant. 2001 Jul;112(3):379-387. doi: 10.1034/j.1399-3054.2001.1120311.x.

Fruit abortion can be caused by a range of abiotic and biotic factors. To gain a better understanding of the causes of the high fruit abortion frequency in cloudberry (Rubus chamaemorus L.), we manipulated different sources of carbon, that...

High-throughput approaches for the discovery and optimization of new olefin polymerization catalysts.
