Health co-benefits from air pollution and mitigation costs of the Paris Agreement: a modelling study
(Elsevier, 2018)
Background: Although the co-benefits from addressing problems related to both climate change and air pollution have been recognised, there is not much evidence comparing the mitigation costs and economic benefits of air ...
Evaluation of habitat protection under the European Natura 2000 conservation network The example for Germany
(PLoS One, 2018)
The world´s largest network of protected areas Natura 2000 (N2000) has been implemented to protect Europe´s biodiversity. N2000 is built upon two cornerstones, the Birds Directive, which lists 691 bird species (plus one ...
Insights on urban and periurban adaptation strategies based on stakeholders' perceptions on hard and soft responses to climate change
(MDPI, 2019)
Adapting to expected impacts of climate change is a task shared by multiple institutions and individuals, but much of this work falls over local and regional authorities, which has made them experts over the issue. At the ...
Addendum to Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities
(IOP Publishing, 2018)
This addendum adds to the analysis presented in Understanding risks in the light of uncertainty: low-probability, high-impact coastal events in cities Abadie et al (2017 Environ. Res. Lett . 12 [https://doi.org/10.1088 ...
Genetic and phenotypic spectrum associated with IFIH1 gain‐of‐function
(Wiley, 2020-01)
IFIH1 gain-of-function has been reported as a cause of a type I interferonopathy encompassing a spectrum of autoinflammatory phenotypes including Aicardi-Goutieres syndrome and Singleton Merten syndrome. Ascertaining ...
Homotypic targeting and drug delivery in glioblastoma cells through cell membrane-coated boron nitride nanotubes
(Elsevier, 2020-07)
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is one of the most aggressive types of brain cancer, characterized by rapid progression, resistance to treatments, and low survival rates; the development of a targeted treatment for this ...
Influence of MUC5B gene on antisynthetase syndrome
(Nature, 2020-01-29)
MUC5B rs35705950 (G/T) is strongly associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and also contributes to the risk of interstitial lung disease (ILD) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA-ILD) and chronic hypersensitivity ...

Measurement-induced, spatially-extended entanglement in a hot, strongly-interacting atomic system
(Nature, 2020-05-15)
Quantum technologies use entanglement to outperform classical technologies, and often employ strong cooling and isolation to protect entangled entities from decoherence by random interactions. Here we show that the opposite ...
Bilinguals processing noun morphology: Evidence for the Language Distance Hypothesis from event-related potentials
(Pergamon-Elsevier, 2020-08)
Evidence shows that second language (L2) processing depends on the Age of Acquisition (AoA), proficiency and differences between L1 and L2 grammar. Here we focus on the influence of the latter factor on L2 processing. To ...
