MEASURING THE PROCESSES OF INTERDISCIPLINARY TEAM COLLABORATION: CREATING VALID MEASURES USING A MANY-FACET RASCH MODEL APPROACH

Measuring the processes of interdisciplinary team collaboration: Creating valid measures using a many-facet Rasch model approach

Abstract Introduction: The science of team science (SciTS) is an emerging research area that studies the processes and outcomes of team-based research.A well-established conceptual framework and appropriate methodology for examining the effectiveness of team science are critically important for promoting and advancing collaborative and interdiscipl

Wireless Volatile Organic Compound Detection for Restricted Internet of Things Environments Based on Cataluminescence Sensors

Cataluminescence-based sensors do not require external light sources and complex circuitry, which enables them to avoid light scattering with high sensitivity, selectivity, and widely linear range.In this study, a wireless sensor system based on hierarchical CuO microspheres assembled from nano-sheets was constructed for Volatile Organic Compound (

SARS-CoV-2 variants C.1.2 and B.1.621 (Mu) partially evade neutralization by antibodies elicited upon infection or vaccination

Summary: Rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 variants C.1.2 and B.1.621 (Mu variant) in Africa and the Americas, respectively, as well as a high number of mutations in the viral spike proteins raised concerns that these variants might pose an elevated threat to human health.Here, we show that C.1.2 and B.1.621 spike proteins mediate increased entry into cer
