He, Xingkang, Hashemi, Ehsan, Johansson, Karl H.
This paper studies how to control an agent in an uncertain environment over a connected sensor network, such that the agent is able to finish a sequence of tasks, namely, reaching certain sets in order. Based on multiple offline reference trajectories and constrained communication between the...

Evidence based medicine (EBM) simulation: a novel and practice-relevant approach to teaching real-time literature searching to emergency medicine residents
Download2020-06-01
Colmers-Gray, Isabelle, Ha, David J, Tan, Maria C., Dong, Sandy L
Introduction: Evidence-based medicine (EBM) and literature searching skills are competencies within the Emergency Medicine (EM) residency curriculum. Previously in our residency program, a librarian-taught literature searching instruction comprised a classroom-based overview of search engines....

Hik, D.S., Zazula, G., Gillis, E.A., Morrison, S.F.
Male arctic ground squirrels (Spermophilus parryii) rely on food they cached the previous year for the energy they need to compete for mates each spring. We collected cheek-pouch contents of arctic ground squirrels trapped during three summers (2000–02) as an indication of what squirrels cached....

Evidence for sympodial vascular architecture in a filicalean fern rhizome: Dickwhitea allenbyensis gen. et sp. nov. (Athyriaceae).
Download2006
Rothwell, G.W., Stockey, R.A., Nishida, H., Karafit, S.J.
A new genus and species of anatomically preserved fossil filicalean ferns Dickwhitea allenbyensis gen. et sp. nov. is described from the Middle Eocene Princeton Chert of southern British Columbia, Canada. Rhizomes have a parenchymatous pith surrounded by a ring of five amphiphloic cauline bundles...

Small-scale vertical aerial photographs taken in 1947 and 1948 covering 200 km2 of the Kluane Ranges, southwest Yukon, were compared with corresponding photographs taken in 1989 for the purpose of characterizing changes in the distribution and abundance of white spruce (Picea glauca (Moench)...

Evidence that the gemmae of Papulaspora sepedonioides are neotenous perithecia in the Melanosporales
Download2008
Tsuneda, A., Davey, M.L., Currah, R.S.
Papulaspora sepedonioides produces large multicellular gemmae with several, thick-walled central cells enclosed within a sheath of smaller thinwalled cells. Phylogenetic analysis of the large subunit rDNA indicates P. sepedonioides has affinities to the Melanosporales (Hypocreomycetidae). The...

Els, C., Ratajewicz, S.E., Asirifi, M.A., Wilson, D.M.
Elder abuse is a global issue, with an estimated 4–10% of older persons in Canada abused each year. Although Canadian legislation has been created to prevent and punish the abuse of older persons living in nursing homes and other care facilities, community-dwelling older persons are at greater...

Drolet, David, Locke, Andrea, Lewis, Mark A, Davidson, Jeff
The main objective of evidence-based management is to promote use of scientific data in the decision-making process of managers, with data either complementing or replacing expert knowledge. It is expected that this will increase the efficiency of environmental interventions. However, the...

Evolution of Conifer Diterpene Synthases: Diterpene Resin Acid Biosynthesis in Lodgepole Pine and Jack Pine Involves Monofunctional and Bifunctional Diterpene Synthases

Jancsik, Sharon, Bohlmann, Jörg, Quesada, Alfonso L., Zerbe, Philipp, Yuen, Macaire, Hall, Dawn E., Dullat, Harpreet, Madilao, Lina L.
Diterpene resin acids (DRAs) are major components of pine (Pinus spp.) oleoresin. They play critical roles in conifer defense against insects and pathogens and as a renewable resource for industrial bioproducts. The core structures of DRAs are formed in secondary (i.e. specialized) metabolism via...
