In the Hospital: Laura Shea

Laura Carruth

LH: Tell me more about your work with teachers. LC: I run a week-long professional development workshop for K–12 teachers called “Why They Do What They Do at the Zoo: Animal Behavior and the Brain.” Also, I facilitate a summer neuroscience-themed camp for middle school-aged children. Both are sponsored by the Center for Behavioral Neuroscience. These projects have also received support from the...

Indigenous knowledge of shea processing and quality perception of shea products in Benin.

A survey among 246 people belonging to 14 ethnic groups and living in 5 different parklands in Benin revealed different practices to process shea kernels (namely boiling followed sun drying and smoking) and extract shea butter. A relation between parklands, gathering period, and sun-drying conditions was established. Moisture content and appearance of kernels were the selection criteria for use...

Coverings of Laura Algebras: the Standard Case

In this paper, we study the covering theory of laura algebras. We prove that if a connected laura algebra is standard (that is, has a standard connecting component), then it has Galois coverings associated to the coverings of the connecting component. As a consequence, the first Hochschild cohomology group of a standard laura algebra vanishes if and only if it has no proper Galois coverings.
