Widening access to higher education–What can EUROSTUDENT say about the new challenges emerging for teaching and learning?

Broadening Participation in Engineering AND Program Evaluation

Orr D.
GSID: J3JEifJl8gQJ
D Orr - European Higher Education at the Crossroads, 2012 - Springer

This paper argues that the Bologna Process is supporting a general drive towards widening participation. The ministers responsible for higher education have formulated the goal of achieving participative equity and have recognised that comparative data sets such as the...

Characterization of vascular permeability using a biomimetic microfluidic blood vessel model.

Biomicrofluidics

Thomas A, Wang S, Sohrabi S, Orr C, He R, Shi W, Liu Y.
PMID: 28344727
Biomicrofluidics. 2017 Mar 03;11(2):024102. doi: 10.1063/1.4977584. eCollection 2017 Mar.

The inflammatory response in endothelial cells (ECs) leads to an increase in vascular permeability through the formation of gaps. However, the dynamic nature of vascular permeability and external factors involved is still elusive. In this work, we use a...

Dementia (London, England)

Kapoor Y, Orr R.
PMID: 25908501
Dementia (London). 2017 Jan;16(1):119-125. doi: 10.1177/1471301215583391. Epub 2016 Jul 27.

Introduction The aim was to investigate whether therapeutic massage was effective in relieving pain in elderly residents with dementia. Methods A randomized controlled study was conducted in an aged care facility. Ten participants with dementia or advanced dementia were...

A derivation of quantum statistical mechanics based on the concept of a Feynman path centroid is presented for the case of generalized density operators using the projected density operator formalism of Blinov and Roy [J. Chem. Phys. 115, 7822-7831...

Hypertensive crisis secondary to pheochromocytoma.

Proceedings (Baylor University. Medical Center)

Greenleaf CE, Griffin LA, Shake JG, Orr WS.
PMID: 28670069
Proc (Bayl Univ Med Cent). 2017 Jul;30(3):314-315. doi: 10.1080/08998280.2017.11929629.

Pheochromocytoma is an uncommon tumor of the adrenal glands that can present with headaches, sweating, palpitations, and paroxysmal hypertension. Pheochromocytoma crisis can lead to cardiomyopathy, pulmonary edema, and even total circulatory collapse. We describe a patient with hypoxic respiratory...

A retrospective analysis of the role of proton pump inhibitors in colorectal cancer disease survival.

Current oncology (Toronto, Ont.)

Graham C, Orr C, Bricks CS, Hopman WM, Hammad N, Ramjeesingh R.
PMID: 28050148

BACKGROUND: Proton pump inhibitors (ppis) are a commonly used medication. A limited number of studies have identified a weak-to-moderate association between ppi use and colorectal cancer (crc) risk, but none to date have identified an effect of ppi use...

Intercellular adhesion : I. A quantitative assay for measuring the rate of adhesion.

The Journal of membrane biology

Orr CW, Roseman S.
PMID: 24174045
J Membr Biol. 1969 Dec;1(1):109-24. doi: 10.1007/BF01869777.

A quantitative procedure for determining the early kinetics of cell aggregation (adhesion) is described. The cells used for this study were obtained by dissociation of 8-day-old embryonic chicken neural retina with crude trypsin. The method is based on determining...

The naked mole-rat (NMR) is the longest-lived rodent and possesses several exceptional traits: marked cancer resistance, negligible senescence, prolonged genomic integrity, pronounced proteostasis, and a sustained health span. The underlying molecular mechanisms that contribute to these extraordinary attributes are...
