Establishing a national linked database for Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) in the UK: multi-method public and professional involvement to determine acceptability and feasibility.

Introduction: Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD) is one of the leading non-genetic causes of developmental disability worldwide and is thought to be particularly common in the UK. Despite this, there is a lack of data on FASD in the UK.

Objective: To conduct public and professional involvement work to establish stakeholder views on the feasibility, acceptability, key purposes, and design of a national linked longitudinal research database for FASD in the UK.

Collage-based narratives of mothers of third culture kids: the in-between space of transnational families in the UAE.

This study delves into the lives of transnational families in the UAE, exploring their complex identities using a visual research approach known as the Collage Life Elicitation Technique (CLET). Both the topic and the methodology are framed within a theoretical lens of (understanding) with a view to further exploring the lives of transnational families in the context of a pragmatic phenomenology and within the setting of the UAE as a rentier state. The lives of families such as these are characterized by a cross-cultural lifestyle, high mobility and expected repatriation.

Moths versus Bees: Contrasts in Habitat Preferences Across Barrens of the Northeastern USA.

Bees and moths are globally important pollinators. Xeric barrens in the largely mesic northeastern USA support high levels of pollinator diversity, including rare bees and moths. We investigated the response of bee vs.

Hydrogen-bonded frameworks for conformational analysis of reactive substrates.

Guanidinium organosulfonate (GS) hydrogen-bonded host frameworks were used to trap α-halopropiophenones and α-halocyclooctanones to determine their molecular structure by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The majority of encapsulated guest molecules adopted conformations expected from computational analysis and stereochemical outcomes of Grignard reactions.
