Performing E-bookness : Remediation and Metamediality in the Ebook Edition of Mark Z. Danielewski's The Fifty Year Sword

Mark. Z Danielewski is known for his experiments with the aesthetics of print in works such as House of Leaves and The Familiar. The chapter examines what happens when the experimental book object is digitalized, focusing on the enhanced e-book version of Danielewski’s The Fifty Year Sword. Drawing on theories on remediation (Bolter and Grusin), bookishness (Pressman, Hayles) and digital materiali

In Vivo and In Vitro Pro-Fibrotic Response of Lung-Resident Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Patients with Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

Lung-resident mesenchymal stem cells (LR-MSC) are thought to participate in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) by differentiating into myofibroblasts. On the other hand, LR-MSC in IPF patients present senescence-related features. It is unclear how they respond to a profibrotic environment. Here, we investigated the profibrotic response of LR-MSC isolated from IPF and control (CON) patients. LR-MS

Clique Is Hard on Average for Unary Sherali-Adams

We prove that unary Sherali-Adams requires proofs of size nΩ(d) to rule out the existence of an nΘ(1)-clique in Erdős-Rényi random graphs whose maximum clique is of size d ≤ 2 log n. This lower bound is tight up to the multiplicative constant in the exponent. We obtain this result by introducing a technique inspired by pseudo-calibration which may be of independent interest. The technique involves

How research travels to policy: The case of Nordic peace research

How is peace research connected to practice? Observers have argued that peace research has gone from activist, political ideals about changing the world to being a methods-driven field of research that has lost all criticality. This article adds empirical substance to the debate by investigating the case of Nordic peace research and its relationship to practice. Through interview data with more th
