Background: KNOWBEST was a mixed methods study exploring the KNOWledge, BEhaviours and Skills required of the modern physioTherapy graduate.
Objectives: To undertake a content analysis of current role descriptors (RDs) for Band5/junior physiotherapists and map these to the knowledge, skills, behaviours and attributes required for contemporary physiotherapy practice.
Design: Content analyses and mapping.
Listeria monocytogenes was the etiologic agent in nearly all recent outbreaks in North America attributed to pasteurized dairy products, whereas Escherichia coli O157 infections were responsible for most of the rare, yet serious complications from outbreaks involving unpasteurized dairy. This study determined the susceptibility of selected strains of L. monocytogenes and Shiga toxin-producing E.

We report a tool, Comgen, for the efficient exploration of composition space, which makes use of logical methods from computer science used for proving theorems. We demonstrate how these techniques, which have not previously been applied to materials discovery, can enable reasoning about scientific domain knowledge provided by human experts.
