Beyond the PDF [At the Event report]
(2011)'Beyond the PDF' brought together around 80 people to the University of California San Diego to discuss scholarly communication, primarily in the sciences. The main topic: How can we apply emergent technologies to improve ... -
Bi-Frequency Symmetry Difference (BFSD) EIT in stroke diagnosis
(EIT2019, 2019-07-01)BFSD-EIT can detect deviations in the inherent normal symmetry of the head due to, for example, the presence of a bleed or clot in stroke. We assess the potential of BFSD-EIT to robustly detect lesions under a series of ... -
Bi-frequency symmetry difference EIT - feasibility and limitations of application to stroke diagnosis
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-12-19)Objective: Bi-Frequency Symmetry Difference (BFSD)-EIT can detect, localize and identify unilateral perturbations in symmetric scenes. Here, we test the viability and robustness of BFSD-EIT in stroke diagnosis. Methods: A ... -
Bi-frequency symmetry difference electrical impedance tomography a novel technique for perturbation detection in static scenes
(IOP Publishing, 2019-02-20)Objective: A novel method for the imaging of static scenes using Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is reported with implementation and validation using numerical and phantom models. The technique is applicable to regions ... -
Big Brother Big Sister and Garda youth diversion projects: perspectives on youth mentoring as a preventative intervention
(UNESCO Child and Family Research Centre, NUI Galway, 2018-06-26)Current policy emphasises the need for community involvement and inter-agency co-operation in youth crime prevention, as well as approaches that seek to strengthen the protective factors in young people’s lives, thus ... -

(UNESCO Child and Family Research Centre, NUI Galway, 2012)The Big Brothers Big Sisters Youth Mentoring Programme was established by Foróige in Ireland in 2001. The programme has two strands - a community-based programme which facilitates a friendship or ‘match’ between a young ... -
Big linked cancer data: Integrating linked TCGA and PubMed
(Elsevier ScienceDirect, 2014-07-16)The amount of bio-medical data available on the Web grows exponentially with time. The resulting large volume of data makes manual exploration very tedious. Moreover, the velocity at which this data changes and the variety ... -

Bioactive potential of natural biomaterials: identification, retention and assessment of biological properties
(Springer Nature, 2021-03-19)Biomaterials have had an increasingly important role in recent decades, in biomedical device design and the development of tissue engineering solutions for cell delivery, drug delivery, device integration, tissue replacement, ... -
Biochemical and cellular characterisation of the Plasmodium falciparum M1 alanyl aminopeptidase (Pf M1AAP) and M17 leucyl aminopeptidase (Pf M17LAP)
(Nature Research, 2021-02-03)The Plasmodium falciparum M1 alanyl aminopeptidase and M17 leucyl aminopeptidase, PfM1AAP and PfM17LAP, are potential targets for novel anti-malarial drug development. Inhibitors of these aminopeptidases have been shown ... -
Biodistribution and retention of locally administered human mesenchymal stromal cells: Quantitative polymerase chain reaction–based detection of human DNA in murine organs
(Elsevier, 2017-01-12)Background. Determining the distributive fate and retention of a cell therapy product after administration is an essential part of characterizing it's biosafety profile. Therefore, regulatory guidelines stipulate that ... -
Biological applications of knowledge graph embedding models
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2020-02-17)Complex biological systems are traditionally modelled as graphs of interconnected biological entities. These graphs, i.e. biological knowledge graphs, are then processed using graph exploratory approaches to perform different ... -
Biomedical semantic resources for drug discovery platforms
(Springer Verlag, 2017-11-08)The biomedical research community is providing large-scale data sources to enable knowledge discovery from the data alone, or from novel scientific experiments in combination with the existing knowledge. Increasingly ... -
Biometric identities and e-government services.
(IGI Global, 2006)Governments are using the Internet and e-commerce technologies to provide public services to their citizens (Watson & Mundy, 2001). In so doing, governments aim to form better relationships with businesses and citizens by ... -
Biophysics rules the cell culture but has yet to reach the clinic: Why is that?
(Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins, 2017-07)Musculoskeletal injuries are the leading cause of physical disability worldwide, with associated annual direct and indirect healthcare expenditure in excess of $874 billion in the United States alone.1 Current treatments ...
