OBJECTIVE To evaluate a mentoring circle workforce development intervention among a group of public health nutrition novices. DESIGN The mentoring circle intervention focused on facilitating practice-based public health nutrition competence development and supporting reorientation of practice from clinical services to preventive services. A retrospective post-intervention qualitative semi-str...

In recent years, most countries in the Asia-Pacific region have made substantial progress toward the goal of universalizing primary education. Accordingly, more and more countries are now paying greater attention to the reorientation and expansion of their secondary education system. However, secondary education is a weak link in the education chain in many countries, even though an increasing ...

Domain patterns of perpendicularly magnetized ultra-thin ferromagnetic films are often determined by the competition of the short range but strong exchange interaction favouring ferromagnetic alignment of magnetic moments and the long range but weak antiferromagnetic dipolar interaction. Detailed phase diagrams of the resulting stripe domain patterns have been evaluated in recent years; however...

It is frequently claimed that the human mind is organized in a modular fashion, a hypothesis linked historically, though not inevitably, to the claim that many aspects of the human mind are innately specified. A specific instance of this line of thought is the proposal of an innately specified geometric module for human reorientation. From a massive modularity position, the reorientation module...

Most free-swimming bacteria move in approximately straight lines, interspersed with random reorientation phases. A key open question concerns varying mechanisms by which reorientation occurs. We combine mathematical modelling with analysis of a large tracking dataset to study the poorly understood reorientation mechanism in the monoflagellate species Rhodobacter sphaeroides. The flagellum on th...

Liquid crystals are composed of flexible organic molecules and capable of forming different ordered structures in their mesophases. Nuclear spin relaxation [1], [2] is a powerful technique that provides useful information on the molecular dynamics of liquid crystals. There are collective director fluctuations, molecular reorientation and internal rotations in flexible end chains. Recently inter...

This letter discusses the advantages and limitations of the method used in the article “A technique for registration and reorientation of surveyed dental casts” by Majid Abolhasani, Amirhosein Shakibamehr, and Hamid Neshandar Asli for recording and reproducing the cast-surveyor relation.

When an electron passes through a chiral molecule there is high probability for correlation between the momentum and spin of charge, thus leading to polarized current. This phenomenon known as induced selectivity (CISS) effect. One most surprising experimental results recently demonstrated that magnetization reversal in ferromagnet (FM) with perpendicular anisotropy can be realized solely by ch...

Cortical microtubules play an important role during morphogenesis by determining the direction of cellulose deposition. Although many triggers are known that can induce the reorientation of cortical plant microtubules, the reorientation mechanism has remained obscure. In our approach, we used gravitropic stimulation which is a strong trigger for microtubule reorientation in epidermal cells of m...
