Navigating unChartered waters: anchoring Athena SWAN into Irish HEIs

Guidance in sepsis management: navigating uncharted waters?

Guidelines can influence physicians to act against their better judgement. For example, while only 47% of surveyed intensivists believed that central venous pressure should guide resuscitation, 86% used it because of the SSC recommendation [2]. Protocols may improve care, but what should one do when audited patient outcomes are already better than those achieved by guideline interventions – suc...

Navigating the Waters of Unconventional Crystalline Hydrates

Elucidating the crystal structures, transformations, and thermodynamics of the two zwitterionic hydrates (Hy2 and HyA) of 3-(4-dibenzo[b,f][1,4]oxepin-11-yl-piperazin-1-yl)-2,2-dimethylpropanoic acid (DB7) rationalizes the complex interplay of temperature, water activity, and pH on the solid form stability and transformation pathways to three neutral anhydrate polymorphs (Forms I, II°, and III)...

Investigative Interviewing for the Purposes of Gathering Intelligence Unchartered Waters : Social Science in Intelligence Interviewing Contexts

Contrary to the harsh ‘enhanced interrogation’ techniques employed during CIA operations on the War on Terror, contemporary research demonstrates that rapport building is a more effective way of achieving positive outcomes in interviews with general offender populations. Comparatively less research has explored the role of rapport with recalcitrant suspects, particularly suspected terrorists. W...

Gender equity programmes in academic medicine: a realist evaluation approach to Athena SWAN processes

OBJECTIVES Gender inequity has persisted in academic medicine. Yet equity is vital for countries to achieve their full potential in terms of translational research and patient benefit. This study sought to understand how the gender equity programme, Athena SWAN, can be enabled and constrained by interactions between the programme and the context it is implemented into, and whether these interac...
