The purpose of this paper is twofold.First, based on a literature review, the characteristics of IDC a good mentoring practice are presented; and second, based on an action research I analyze how one teacher developed these characteristics (or not) during the process of becoming a mentor.Concerning the first objective, several researchers (MAYNARD,
Introducing Image Classification Efficacies
Accuracy assessment is essential in all image classification-related fields, ranging from molecular imaging to earth observation.However, existing accuracy metrics are too sensitive to class imbalance or lack explicit interpretations for assessing classification performance.Consequently, their scores may be misleading when they are applied to compa
Molecular Mechanisms of Short-Term Plasticity: Role of Synapsin Phosphorylation in Augmentation and Potentiation of Spontaneous Glutamate Release
We used genetic and pharmacological approaches to identify the signaling pathways involved in augmentation and potentiation, two forms of activity dependent, short-term synaptic plasticity that enhance neurotransmitter release.Trains of presynaptic action potentials produced a robust increase in the frequency of miniature excitatory postsynaptic cu
Proteostasis Dysfunction in Aged Mammalian Cells. The Stressful Role of Inflammation
Aging is a biological and multifactorial process characterized by a progressive and irreversible deterioration of the Cleanser physiological functions leading to a progressive increase in morbidity.In the next decades, the world population is expected to reach ten billion, and globally, elderly people over 80 are projected to triple in 2050.Consequ
The effects of coconut oil on the cardiometabolic profile: a systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials
Abstract Background Despite having a 92% concentration of saturated fatty acid composition, leading to an apparently unfavorable lipid profile, body weight and glycemic effect, coconut oil is consumed worldwide.Thus, we conducted an updated systematic review and meta-analysis of randomized clinical trials (RCTs) to analyze the effect of coconut oil
