Exploration of how youth justice staff perceive the speech-language pathology role and service provision in an Australian youth justice setting.

Purpose: The aims of this project were to explore how youth justice staff perceive the speech-language pathology role and provision in an Australian youth justice setting, including the speech-language pathologist's role in supporting young people to participate in the activities of the youth justice service studied.

Method: A narrative inquiry approach was employed to guide semi-structured interviews with youth justice staff. Perceptions and experiences were analysed via reflexive thematic analysis, with member checking and inter-rater coding utilised for rigour.

Biofunctionalization of Multiplexed Silicon Photonic Biosensors.

Silicon photonic (SiP) sensors offer a promising platform for robust and low-cost decentralized diagnostics due to their high scalability, low limit of detection, and ability to integrate multiple sensors for multiplexed analyte detection. Their CMOS-compatible fabrication enables chip-scale miniaturization, high scalability, and low-cost mass production. Sensitive, specific detection with silicon photonic sensors is afforded through biofunctionalization of the sensor surface; consequently, this functionalization chemistry is inextricably linked to sensor performance.

Patients' and caregivers' experiences of hospitalization under COVID-19 visitation restrictions.

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, hospitals did not allow caregiver visitation. Little is known about how caregivers' absence affected patients' care.

Objective: This study aimed to describe visitation restrictions' impact on patients and their caregivers experiences.

Avoiding water reservoir effects in ALD of functional complex alkali oxides by using O as the oxygen source.

Toxic Pb-containing piezo-, pyro- and ferroelectrics continue to dominate the market even though they were banned from use in consumer products more than a decade ago. There is a strong need for sustainable alternatives, but the lack of facile synthesis routes for thin films exhibiting suitable functional properties have limited the transition from Pb workhorse materials like Pb(Zr,Ti)O and Pb(Mg,Nb)O - PbTiO. Atomic layer deposition has proven capable of the deposition of possible successors, such as LiNbO, (K,Na)NbO and K(Ta,Nb)O, albeit with limited control due to water reservoir effects resulting from the hygroscopicity of intermediate products.
