Kiely, Maeve; Adams, David R.; Hayes, Sheri L.; O'Connor, Rosemary; Baillie, George S.; Kiely, Patrick A. (Elsevier, 2017)

Conflicting reports implicate the scaffolding protein RACK1 in the progression of breast cancer. RACK1 has been identified as a key regulator downstream of growth factor and adhesion signalling and as a direct binding ...
RACK1, a multifaceted scaffolding protein: structure and function.

Adams, David R.; Ron, Dorit; Kiely, Patrick A. (BioMed Central, 2011)

The Receptor for Activated C Kinase 1 (RACK1) is a member of the tryptophan-aspartate repeat (WD-repeat) family of proteins and shares significant homology to the Î² subunit of G-proteins (GÎ²). RACK1 adopts a seven-bladed ...
Radiation-induced changes in the electrical properties of TiO2 thick films

Arshak, Khalil; Korostynska, Olga; Arshak, Arousian; Morris, Deirdre (IEEE Computer Society, 2005)

The electrical properties of screen-printed TiO2 based thick films were explored in terms of gamma radiation influence. Screen-printed pn-heterojunctions and resistors were exposed to γ- radiation from a 137Cs source ...
Radical love: architecture and the efficacy of the new

Mullen, Benjamin (School of Architecture, University of Limerick, 2013)

I would like to offer a brief introduction to this thesis document. The work that follows takes as its staring point the universal theme of love as it could (or should) relate to architecture, historically and presently. ...
A radiopaque nanoparticle-based ink using PolyJet 3D printing for medical applications

Shannon, Alice; O'Connell, Aine; O'Sullivan, Aidan; Byrne, Michael; Clifford, Seamus; O'Sullivan, Kevin Jeremiah; O'Sullivan, Leonard (Mary Ann Liebert, 2021)

The aim of this study was to develop a 3D printable radiopaque ink and successfully print a finished artifact. Radiopaque 3D printing would be hugely beneficial to improve the visibility of medical devices and implants, ...
Radiotherapy dosimetry based on perflourinated polymer opitcal fibres

Olusoji, Olugbenga J.; Kam, Wern; O'Keeffe, Sinéad (SPIE: The International Society for Optics and Phontonics, 2020)

The complexity of treating cancerous cells in patients using radiotherapy, requires precision in terms of the total dose received by the patient. The use of scintillating materials at the tip of the fibre for real time ...
Rail-to-rail op-amp design incorporating negative miller and miller compensation

Zaidi, Muhaned Ali Hussein; Grout, Ian; A'ain, Abu Khari (I.J.S.E.I, 2018)

This paper considers and presents the design of a rail-to-rail input and output CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) two-stage operational amplifier (op-amp). The design uses two capacitance based compensation ...
Raman spectroscopy of fingernails: a novel tool for evaluation of bone quality?

Cummins, Niamh M.; Day, J.C.C.; Wren, A.W.; Carroll, P.; Murphy, N.; Jakeman, Philip M.; Towler, M.R. (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2010)

Raman data from human fingernails has been analysed to determine if a relationship exists between spectral features and bone quality. Previous work demonstrated a relationship between the manually determined intensity of ...
Random depth access full-field heterodyne low-coherence interferometry utilizing acousto-optic modulation and a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor camera

Egan, Patrick; Connelly, Michael J.; Lakestani, Fereydoun; Whelan, Maurice P. (Optical Society of America, 2006)

With analog scanning, time-domain low-coherence interferometry lacks precise depth information, and optical carrier generation demands a linear scanning speed. Full-field heterodyne low-coherence interferometry that uses ...
A random forest approach to identify metrics that best predict match outcome and player ranking in the esport rocket league

Smithies, Tim D.; Campbell, Mark J.; Ramsbottom, Niall; Toth, Adam J. (Nature, 2021)

Notational analysis is a popular tool for understanding what constitutes optimal performance in traditional sports. However, this approach has been seldom used in esports. The popular esport “Rocket League” is an ideal ...
Ranking the effects of cycle time parameters, shoulder posture and load, on shoulder discomfort in a single experiment using Taguchi methods
