This article focuses on targeted programs for low-SES students in two selective universities: Trinity College Dublin, the University of Ireland (Trinity Access Programmes/TAP) and Oxford, UK (Lady Margaret Hall Foundation Year/LMH FY). The were collaborative developments, as examples potential learning adaptation across geographical contexts. It poses questions: (a) How did admissions processes...

Supplemental Experimental Procedures radish peroxidase-conjugatged anti-mouse immunoglobulin (KirPlasmids and Recombinant Proteins kegaard & Perry Laboratories; 1:5000 dilution). To generate Myc-tagged E4BP4, the open reading frame (ORF) of cE4BP4 was cloned into pCS2 MT [S1]. Mutant forms of Myctagged E4BP4 were created by using the QuickChange site-directed In Vitro Kinase Assay mutagenesis k...

Organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) is an emerging membrane separation technology, which urgently requires robust, easily processed, OSN membranes possessing high permeance and small solutes-selectivity to facilitate enhanced industrial uptake. Herein, we describe the use of two 2,2′-biphenol (BIPOL) derivatives fabricate hyper-crosslinked, microporous polymer nanofilms through IP. Ultra-thin,...

This study establishes a compartment model for the categorized COVID-19 risk area. In this model, compartments represent administrative regions at different transmission levels instead of individuals in traditional epidemic models. The county-level are partitioned into High-risk (H), Medium-risk (M), and Low-risk (L) areas dynamically according to current number confirmed cases. These communica...

Pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) can be considered as one of the methods for utilizing osmotic power, which is a membrane-based technology. Mathematical modeling plays an essential part in development and optimization PRO energy-generating systems. In this research, mathematical model was developed hollow fiber module to predict power density permeate water flux theoretically. Sodium chloride so...

Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes have been widely applied in the separation of various organic matters owing to their excellent properties. However, they possess low wettability and undergo fouling because hydrophobic nature PVDF. In this study, poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) (sulfobetaine (PSBMA) were co-introduced modify highly PVDF membrane surface via UV photo-irradiatio...

Designing efficient membranes for desalination to help reduce the water shortage crisis has been subject of various studies. In this study, first, CuAl LDH nanosheets were prepared and surface some thin-film composite (TFC) was modified by them. Afterward, novel heterostructure nanocomposite consisting WS2 synthesized hydrothermal method, a new kind (TFN) made using All obtained performance stu...

Forward osmosis (FO) has received considerable interest for water and energy-related applications in recent years. However, FO not been commercialized yet because of a few reasons. The lack high-performance membrane is one the important barriers. To overcome this issue, novel thin-film composite (TFC) was successfully fabricated via interfacial polymerization with poly-L-lysine incorporated pol...
