Lifting of D1-D5-P states
(2019)Journal of High Energy PhysicsWe consider states of the D1-D5 CFT where only the left-moving sector is excited. As we deform away from the orbifold point, some of these states will remain BPS while others can ‘lift’. We compute this lifting for a particular family of D1-D5-P states, at second order in the deformation off the orbifold point. We note that the maximally twisted sector of the CFT is special: the covering surface appearing in the correlator can only be ...Journal Article -
Cell number in mesenchymal stem cell aggregates dictates cell stiffness and chondrogenesis
(2019)Stem Cell Research & TherapyBackground Although mesenchymal stem/stromal cell (MSC) chondrogenic differentiation has been thoroughly investigated, the rudiments for enhancing chondrogenesis have remained largely dependent on external cues. Focus to date has been on extrinsic variables such as soluble signals, culture conditions (bioreactors), and mechanical stimulation. However, the role of intrinsic mechanisms of MSC programming-based mechanobiology remains to be ...Journal Article -

The export flux of particulate organic carbon derived from 210Po/210Pb disequilibria along the North Atlantic GEOTRACES GA01 transect: GEOVIDE cruise
(2019)BiogeosciencesThe disequilibrium between 210Po activity and 210Pb activity in seawater samples was determined along the GEOTRACES GA01 transect in the North Atlantic during the GEOVIDE cruise (May–June 2014). A steady-state model was used to quantify vertical export of particulate 210Po. Vertical advection was incorporated into one version of the model using time-averaged vertical velocity, which had substantial variance. This resulted in large ...Journal Article -
Subseasonal hydrometeorological ensemble predictions in small- and medium-sized mountainous catchments: Benefits of the NWP approach
(2019)Hydrology and Earth System SciencesTraditional ensemble streamflow prediction (ESP) systems are known to provide a valuable baseline to predict streamflows at the subseasonal to seasonal timescale. They exploit a combination of initial conditions and past meteorological observations, and can often provide useful forecasts of the expected streamflow in the upcoming month. In recent years, numerical weather prediction (NWP) models for subseasonal to seasonal timescales have ...Journal Article -

Vaccine hesitancy among mobile pastoralists in Chad: a qualitative study
(2018)International Journal for Equity in HealthBackground Demand side barriers to vaccination among rural and hard-to-reach populations in Chad are not yet well understood. Although innovative approaches such as linking human and animal vaccination increase vaccination uptake among mobile pastoralist communities, vaccination coverage in these communities is still lower than for rural settled populations. We hypothesize that mobile pastoralists’ communities in Chad face specific demand ...Journal Article
