Machine Learning in Stroke Medicine: Opportunities and Challenges for Risk Prediction and Prevention
(2021)Advances in Neuroethics ~ Artificial Intelligence in Brain and Mental Health: Philosophical, Ethical & Policy IssuesStroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability worldwide, causing individual hardship and high economic cost for society. Reducing the global burden of stroke depends on a multi-pronged mission, and experts agree an important strategy in this mission is prevention. Prevention success can be bolstered through the strategic development and adoption of risk prediction tools. However, there are several limitations to risk ...Book Chapter -
Tree-Ring Stable Isotope Measurements: The Role of Quality Assurance and Quality Control to Ensure High Quality Data
(2022)Tree Physiology ~ Stable Isotopes in Tree Rings: Inferring Physiological, Climatic and Environmental ResponsesQuality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) are important components of every study. In this chapter, we give an overview of QA/QC specific for tree-ring stable-isotope analysis from the perspective of the entire research project, rather than from the operation of Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometers (IRMS). We address how users of stable isotope tree-ring data can quantify the quality of their data for reporting in publications by calculating ...Book Chapter -
Isotopes—Terminology, Definitions and Properties
(2022)Tree Physiology ~ Stable Isotopes in Tree Rings: Inferring Physiological, Climatic and Environmental ResponsesThe intention of this chapter is to give insight into the properties and peculiarities of the stable isotopes of the bioelements. Following an overview about the terminology and ʻtechnical jargonʼ used in stable isotope sciences, methods to calculate and express isotopic abundances are presented. Subsequently, a short description of the physicochemical basis of equilibrium and kinetic (mass-dependent) isotope effects (EIEs and KIEs) as ...Book Chapter -

Preface: Transitioning to no poverty by 2030
(2021)Transitioning to Sustainability ~ Transitioning to No PovertyThe first sustainable development goal (SDG 1) is “to end poverty in all its forms everywhere and for all”, which seems to be non-negotiable for the “world we want”, which would provide minimum living standards for all global citizens. However, the question remains: is this goal feasible, especially given the set-backs in the fight against poverty and the unequal access to health resources that we have observed in 2020 and 2021? If yes, ...Book Chapter -
China-Russia Cooperation in Nuclear Deterrence
(2022)Russia-China RelationsNuclear issues have historically played an important role in the development of relations between Moscow and Beijing, acting as a source of both potential discord and emergent cooperation. Cooperation by China and Russia to strengthen their respective nuclear deterrents is already an important factor in international security and could grow in importance over time. CSS' Brian Carlson's book chapter assesses actual China-Russia cooperation ...Book Chapter -
Forschung in der Architekturausbildung. Sozialwissenschaftliche Methoden in der Entwurfslehre an zwei Architekturschulen in Großbritannien und der Schweiz
(2019)Forum Architekturwissenschaft ~ Vom Baumeister zum Master. Formen der Architekturlehre vom 19. bis ins 21. JahrhundertBedingt durch Reformen wie Bologna kam es an Universitäten und Fachhochschulen zu einer zunehmenden Forschungsorientierung der bisher berufsorientiert ausgerichteten Architekturausbildung. Mit Ansätzen der Wissenschafts- und Technikforschung untersucht dieser Beitrag, wie Forschung im Entwurfsunterricht an zwei Architekturschulen in Großbritannien und der Schweiz durchgeführt wird. Die Studien zeigen, dass es in beiden Fällen ...Book Chapter
