Growing up in Australia: the longitudinal study of Australian children: entering adolescence and becoming a young adult
No full textGrowing Up in Australia: The Longitudinal Study of Australian Children (LSAC) has now produced five waves of data, capturing information on young children growing up and now entering adolescence. This article explains the design and methodology of the study, and how it has enhanced our capacity to understand the lives of Australian children and their families. Now that the K cohort children are 12-13 years old, they are being asked new questions about this time of transition, such as conflict with authority and antisocial behaviour, after-school time use and supervision, and pocket money, an important aspect in the development of financial literacy
Computational identification and analysis of protein short linear motifs
No full textShort linear motifs (SLiMs) in proteins can act as targets for proteolytic cleavage, sites of post-translational modification, determinants of sub-cellular localization, and mediators of protein-protein interactions. Computational discovery of SLiMs involves assembling a group of proteins postulated to share a potential motif, masking out residues less likely to contain such a motif, down-weighting shared motifs arising through common evolutionary descent, and calculation of statistical probabilities allowing for the multiple testing of all possible motifs. Much of the challenge for motif discovery lies in the assembly and masking of datasets of proteins likely to share motifs, since the motifs are typically short (between 3 and 10 amino acids in length), so that potential signals can be easily swamped by the noise of stochastically recurring motifs. Focusing on disordered regions of proteins, where SLiMs are predominantly found, and masking out non-conserved residues can reduce the level of noise but more work is required to improve the quality of high-throughput experimental datasets (e.g. of physical protein interactions) as input for computational discovery

Ethanol: response and mechanisms in Caenorhabditis elegans
No full textThe aim of this project is to identify behavioural phenotypes associated with ethanol in C. elegans and potential molecular targets for ethanol that underpin an ethanol response. This will be achieved through a multi-lateral approach using bioinformatics, genetics and neuroscience based methodology.In accord with previous experiments, behavioural analysis showed that several phenotypes could be used to describe and assess the state of ethanol induced intoxication and dependence over a range of concentrations. C. elegans exhibits an inhibition of locomotion at high ethanol concentrations. This manifests as a reduction in the population that chemotax towards a food reward whilst lower ethanol concentrations show no such reduction in population chemotaxis. There is also a change in locomotion which characterises an ethanol withdrawal; this is a separate response from the intoxicating behaviour seen at higher concentrations. Similar to the response seen in populations, individual worms show a dose dependent reduction in pharyngeal pumping rate. This also shows no significant difference at lower concentrations to their untreated counterparts.Observations from studying pharyngeal pumping indicate that worms do show a behavioural response at lower ethanol concentrations. Worms placed in an environment with food and ethanol will not exhibit feeding behaviour as control worms do, instead worms disperse away from the food source. This behaviour can be observed at a threshold of around 10mM ethanol. It is unclear how ethanol causes this phenotype. Overall, these data provides new paradigms for assessing low dose effects. These assays will be important for future studies designed to model low dose effects.With respect to higher doses, ethanol is known to activate cellular and physiological pathways that underpin stress. Here, we have investigated whether the unfolded protein response (UPR) is an important mediator of stress induced by ethanol. Our evidence suggests no clear activation of the UPR by ethanol concentrations that exert behavioural effects. In an attempt to pre-empt genetic data, we initiated a database of genes involved in ethanol responses, which were mapped on to C. elegans and human homologues. These were used to build an ethanol network, which could be used to refine investigations of ethanol-related genes in C. elegans

Young carers in receipt of Carer Payment and Carer Allowance 2001 to 2006: characteristics, experiences and post-care outcomes
No full textThis paper aims to provide a better understanding of the circumstances of young people (aged under 25 years) who receive transfer payments to support them in providing ‘informal’ care to people with disabilities and the frail aged. A specific motivation of the research was to examine the extent to which young carers are reliant on income support, both while caring and post-care, and their education participation.Author: J.

Evidence for the decay B0→J/ψω and measurement of the relative branching fractions of meson decays to J/ψη and J/ψη′
No full textFirst evidence of the B 0 → J / ψ ω decay is found and the B s 0 → J / ψ η and B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ decays are studied using a dataset corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 1.0 fb -1 collected by the LHCb experiment in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s) = 7 TeV. The branching fractions of these decays are measured relative to that of the B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0 decay:frac(B (B 0 → J / ψ ω), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 0.89 ± 0.19 (stat) - 0.13 + 0.07 (syst),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 14.0 ± 1.2 (stat) - 1.5 + 1.1 (syst) - 1.0 + 1.1 (frac(f d, f s)),frac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B 0 → J / ψ ρ 0)) = 12.7 ± 1.1 (stat) - 1.3 + 0.5 (syst) - 0.9 + 1.0 (frac(f d, f s)), where the last uncertainty is due to the knowledge of f d / f s, the ratio of b-quark hadronization factors that accounts for the different production rate of B 0 and B s 0 mesons. The ratio of the branching fractions of B s 0 → J / ψ η ′ and B s 0 → J / ψ η decays is measured to befrac(B (B s 0 → J / ψ η ′), B (B s 0 → J / ψ η)) = 0.90 ± 0.09 (stat) - 0.02 + 0.06 (syst)
