Fornix White Matter is Correlated with Resting-State Functional Connectivity of the Thalamus and Hippocampus in Healthy Aging but Not in Mild Cognitive Impairment - A Preliminary Study.
(2015)In this study, we wished to examine the relationship between the structural connectivity of the fornix, a white matter (WM) tract in the limbic system, which is affected in amnestic mild cognitive impairment (aMCI) and ... -
Fortunate and fearful: Emotions evoked by home care policies for older people in Ireland
(2020)This article examines the emotions of fear and feeling fortunate experienced by key actors in home care services in Ireland. We take a relational approach to emotions, that is to say, an understanding that emotions are ... -
Four decades of finite element analysis of orthopaedic devices: Where are we now and what are the opportunities?
(2015)Finite element has been used for more than four decades to study and evaluate the mechanical behaviour total joint replacements. In Huiskes seminal paper “Failed innovation in total hip replacement: diagnosis and proposals ... -
A framework for assessing health system resilience in an economic crisis: Ireland as a test case
(2013)BACKGROUND: The financial crisis that hit the global economy in 2007 was unprecedented in the post war era. In general the crisis has created a difficult environment for health systems globally. The purpose of this paper ... -
Frequency locking and quasiperiodicity in a modulated external cavity injection laser
(American Institute of Physics, 1989)We report the observation of frequency locking and quasiperiodicity in a modulated external cavity injection laser. The order of appearance of the frequency-locked regions follows a Farey sequence as the modulation frequency ... -
From ocean to mantle: new evidence for U-cycling with implications for the HIMU source and the secular Pb isotope evolution of Earth's mantle
(2018)Of the isotopically distinctive mantle domains, the so-called HIMU (“high-μ”; μ = 238U/204Pb) source is the most extreme, and its genesis continues to be debated. We report very strong U enrichment at unchanged Th ... -
From the workhouse to the home. The historical origins and development of domiciliary care services for older people in Ireland
(2008)Purpose: Care of older persons in their own homes has in recent years received much attention in Ireland. The proponents of domiciliary care draw on both economic and quality of life arguments, many of which are identifiable ... -
A fully abstract denotational model for higher-order processes
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 1993)A higher-order process calculus is defined in which one can describe processes which transmit as messages other processes; it may be viewed as a generalization of the lazy ?-calculus. The authors present a denotational ... -
Functionalization of graphene surfaces with downstream plasma treatments
(2013)We report on an adjustable process for the functionalization of graphene surfaces with a downstream plasma source. The parameters of oxygen plasma treatments are modified such that oxygenated functionalities can be added ... -
Further Education and Training in Ireland: Past, Present and Future
(ESRI, 2014)The establishment of An Seirbhís Oideachais Leanúnaigh agus Scileanna (SOLAS) has prompted an assessment of the nature of current further education and training (FET) and an exploration of future directions. This ... -
Further reading [ a selective bibliography of Irish Crime Writing 1829-2010 ]
(Liberties Press, 2011)The following list does not pretend to determine the `best of?? Irish crime writing. Instead, it offers a conspectus of Irish authors of crime fiction, writing in English and Irish, from the mid-nineteenth century to the ... -
'The future isn't what it used to be': Technology in counselling and psychotherapy
(2008)Change is prefigured in the articulation by Dr Rick Satavas: `the future isn?t what it used to be?. Its sentiment rings true; recently psychotherapy practitioners and researchers have begun investigating the potential of ... -
Gas phase controlled deposition of high quality large-area graphene films
(2010)A gas phase controlled graphene synthesis resembling a CVD process that does not critically depend on cooling rates is reported. The controllable catalytic CVD permits high quality large-area graphene formation with deft ... -
Gastric T lymphocyte responses to Helicobacter pylori in patients with H pylori colonisation
(BMJ, 1994)Helicobacter pylori has been identified as a dominant factor in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer. The aim of this study was to examine peripheral blood and gastric lymphocyte proliferation and cytokine production in ... -

The Gene Regulatory Cascade Linking Proneural Specification with Differentiation in Drosophila Sensory Neurons
(2010)In neurogenesis, neural cell fate specification is generally triggered by proneural transcription factors. Whilst the role of proneural factors in fate specification is well studied, the link between neural specification ... -
Generation and characterisation of Cisplatin-resistant non-small cell lung cancer cell lines displaying a stem-like signature.
(2013)Introduction: Inherent and acquired cisplatin resistance reduces the effectiveness of this agent in the management of non- small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying this process ... -
Genome-wide mega-analysis identifies 16 loci and highlights diverse biological mechanisms in the common epilepsies.
(2018)The epilepsies affect around 65 million people worldwide and have a substantial missing heritability component. We report a genome-wide mega-analysis involving 15,212 individuals with epilepsy and 29,677 controls, which ...
