Nanomedicine applied to translational oncology: A future perspective on cancer treatment.
(2016)The high global incidence of cancer is associated with high rates of mortality and morbidity worldwide. By taking advantage of the properties of matter at the nanoscale, nanomedicine promises to develop innovative drugs ... -
Nanoscale neuroelectrode modification via sub-20 nm silicon nanowires through self-assembly of block copolymers
(2015)Neuroelectrodes are susceptible to deterioration via scar encapsulation following implantation. Biologically relevant nanosurfaces which mimic the biological length scale may prevent this deterioration via the modulation ... -
Nanotechnologies for the study of the central nervous system
(2014)Description of novel nanotechnologies to deliver a translational bridge between basic and clinical neuroscience research. • Evaluation of novel in vitro and in vivo nanodiagnostic tools for neuroimaging and the ... -
Near East Relief
(Freie Universität Berlin, 2014)Near East Relief was formed in 1915 to address the catastrophic humanitarian consequences of the Armenian genocide. By the end of the war, the organization had transformed into a vast aid campaign that focused on orphans ... -
Negative Equity in the Irish Housing Market
(2010)Having peaked in early 2007 Irish house prices have fallen steadily. Negative equity occurs if house price falls result in the house value being lower than the outstanding debt. Many in negative equity will be unaffected ... -
Negative Equity in the Irish Housing Market: Estimates Using Loan Level Data
(ESRI, 2013-08-28)The sharp decline in house prices since 2007 has led to the emergence of widespread negative equity in Ireland. For a large sample of borrowers in negative equity the paper provides details on the characteristics of the ... -
Neighbourhood Environment and Cognitive Vulnerability—A Survey Investigation of Variations Across the Lifespan and Urbanity Levels
(2020)Background: Understanding the impact of local communities on wellbeing is a paramount Sustainable Development Goal. In order to inform people-centred planning interventions, it is important to understand what demographic ... -
Neural Adaptations Associated with Interlimb Transfer in a Ballistic Wrist Flexion Task
(2016)Cross education is the process whereby training of one limb gives rise to increases in the subsequent performance of its opposite counterpart. The execution of many unilateral tasks is associated with increased excitability ... -
Neural circuitry underlying sustained attention in healthy adolescents and in ADHD symptomatology
(2017)Moment-to-moment reaction time variability on tasks of attention, often quantified by intra-individual response variability (IRV), provides a good indication of the degree to which an individual is vulnerable to lapses in ... -
Neural correlates of abnormal sensory discrimination in laryngeal dystonia.
(2016)Aberrant sensory processing plays a fundamental role in the pathophysiology of dystonia; however, its underpinning neural mechanisms in relation to dystonia phenotype and genotype remain unclear. We examined temporal and ... -
Neural correlates of abnormal temporal discrimination in unaffected relatives of cervical dystonia patients
(2019)Background: An abnormal temporal discrimination threshold in cervical dystonia (CD) is considered to be a mediational endophenotype; in unaffected relatives it is hypothesized to indicate non-manifesting gene carriage. The ... -
Neural differences between covert and overt attention studied using EEG with simultaneous remote eye tracking
(2016)Research on neural mechanisms of attention has generally instructed subjects to direct attention covertly while maintaining a fixed gaze. This study combined simultaneous eye tracking and electroencephalogram (EEG) to ... -
Neurofilament expression in human T lymphocytes
(British Society for Immunology, 1993)The expression of intermediate filaments in normal cells is mainly determined by their embryonal developmental origin. Flow cytometry using monoclonal antibody RT97 demonstrated that neurofilament was detectable in the ... -
Neuropsychosocial profiles of current and future adolescent alcohol misusers.
(2014)A comprehensive account of the causes of alcohol misuse must accommodate individual differences in biology, psychology and environment, and must disentangle cause and effect. Animal models can demonstrate the effects of ... -
New analytical tools and frameworks to understand dementia: What can a human-rights lens offer?
(2021)The biomedical model has traditionally informed the dominant discourse on dementia and has significantly shaped practitioners’, policy makers’ and researchers’ responses. This model contextualises dementia as a progressive ...
