DO TWO AND THREE YEAR OLD CHILDREN USE AN INCREMENTAL FIRST-NP-AS-AGENT BIAS TO PROCESS ACTIVE TRANSITIVE AND PASSIVE SENTENCES?: A PERMUTATION ANALYSIS.

Do two and three year old children use an incremental first-NP-as-agent bias to process active transitive and passive sentences?: A permutation analysis.

We used eye-tracking to investigate if and when children show an incremental bias to assume that the first noun phrase in a sentence is the agent (first-NP-as-agent bias) while processing the meaning of English active and passive transitive sentences.We also investigated whether children can override this bias to successfully distinguish active fro

How do eubacterial organisms manage aggregation-prone proteome? [v1; ref status: indexed, http://f1000r.es/3k3]

Eubacterial genomes vary considerably in their nucleotide composition.The percentage of genetic material constituted by guanosine and cytosine (GC) nucleotides ranges from 20% to 70%.It has been posited that GC-poor organisms are more dependent on protein folding machinery.Previous studies have ascribed this to the accumulation of mildly deleteriou

Exosome-coated oxygen nanobubble-laden hydrogel augments intracellular delivery of exosomes for enhanced wound healing

Abstract Wound healing is an obvious clinical concern that can be hindered by inadequate angiogenesis, inflammation, and chronic hypoxia.While exosomes derived from adipose tissue-derived stem cells have shown promise in accelerating healing by carrying therapeutic growth factors and microRNAs, intracellular cargo delivery is compromised in hypoxic
