Abstract:
Molecular networks are commonly used to explore cellular organisation and disease mechanisms. Function is studied using molecular interaction networks, such as protein-protein networks. Although much biological insight has been gained using these models of molecular function, they are hindered by their reliance on available experimental data and an inability to capture the complexity of biological processes. Functional modules can be identified based on molecular network topology, making it essential that the edges accurately depict molecular interactions. However, these networks struggle to d

In this dissertation, I investigate the representation of the emperor's image in Rome and the provinces of the Roman Empire. This study examines portraits in the round and inscribed bases of emperors Caracalla (AD 196-217) and Geta (AD 198-211) and asks how and why patrons chose to set up honorific statuary monuments and display imperial images. I explore the process of conception, mediation, and reception of the emperor's authorised likeness, addressing a set of fundamental questions: Who commissioned copies of imperial portraits and for what occasion?

The study reported in this dissertation aimed at exploring relations between parental factors - parenting and maternal executive function (EF) - and preschool children's EF in the South Korean context (the Republic of Korea; Korea hereafter). Specifically, it investigated the replication in the Korean context of existing findings in Western cultures on the link between parenting and child EF. In addition, the present study explored parental aspects that have rarely been linked to child EF: 1) the relation of parental verbal input to child EF, 2) simultaneous relations of parenting and maternal

Abstract:
<p> With the recent proliferation of large, unlabeled data sets, a particular subclass of semisupervised learning problems has become more prevalent. Known as positive-unlabeled learning (PU learning), this scenario provides only positive labeled examples, usually just a small fraction of the entire dataset, with the remaining examples unknown and thus potentially belonging to either the positive or negative class. Since the vast majority of traditional machine learning classifiers require both positive and negative examples in the training set, a new class of algorithms has been developed to

The gene PRICKLE1 is important for human brain function, as mutations in PRCKLE1 are associated with progressive myoclonus epilepsy (PME). Mutations in prickle orthologs could cause seizures in flies, zebrafish and mice, suggesting a conserved role of Prickle protein in seizure from fruit flies to humans. The underlying molecular mechanism how PRICKLE1 mutation causes PME is still unknown. Prickle1 is part of the planar cell polarity (PCP) pathway, which regulates cell polarity within plane of cell sheets. In Drosophila, prickle is recruited to one side of the cell by another PCP protein, Van

Within this context, the nymphaea are treated as landmarks for mentally mapping the city and as urban furniture in a properly functioning urban public sphere.

Emergent infectious diseases are a major driver of the accelerated rates of biodiversity loss that are being documented around the world. Global losses of amphibians provide evidence of this, especially those associated with chytridiomycosis, a lethal skin disease caused by the fungus Batrachochytrium dendrobatidis (Bd). Amphibian skin can harbor diverse bacterial communities that, in some cases, can inhibit the growth of Bd. Thus, there is interest in using skin bacteria as probiotics to mitigate Bd infections in amphibians. However, experiments testing this conservation approach have yielded

Form and function are linked at a fundamental level. Bones, for example, are clearly functionally important. They allow movement and, whilst supporting loads, also need to respond and resist to muscular forces. Indeed, bones are shaped by force and motion and thus, presumably intimately related to the movements executed, and thus also the lifestyle of a species. This is the background of this project where the origin and nature of phenotypic variation is studied in relation to phylogenetic constraints and mechanistic form‐function relationships in the context of adaptations to specific ecologi

Abstract:
This study concerns the manuscript music book of Robert Edward (c. 1614–c. 1697), minister, author and musician. The manuscript, formerly part of the library at Panmure House, is now held in the National Library of Scotland and is commonly referred to as ‘Robert Edward’s Commonplace Book’ (GB-En MS.9450). The present study is in two parts and begins with an exploration of the physical book, including the structure, compilation, hands and ownership before a second chapter explores the biography of the eponymous owner, contextualising GB-En MS.9450 locally and nationally. The third chapter conce

Abstract:
<p> Oceans are acidifying as atmospheric CO<sub>2</sub> is drawn down. This process, known as ocean acidification (OA), is well known and documented. Over the next 100 years, pH of the surface ocean is projected to decrease by up to 0.35 units. This CO<sub>2</sub> draw down has a direct effect on dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) balance in the ocean. OA is expected to impact calcifying organisms that rely on constituencies of the DIC system, specifically carbonate ion [CO<sub>3</sub><sup>2-</sup>]. It is clear that externally calcified structures, such as coral skeletons, bivalve shells, etc.,
