Creighton, Samantha D.; Jardine, Kristen H.; Desimone, Alexa; Zmetana, Megan; Castellano, Sabrina; Milite, Ciro; Sbardella, Gianluca; Winters, Boyer D. – Learning & Memory, 2022
Histone acetylation, catalyzed by e, has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy in Alzheimer's disease (AD). By longitudinally characterizing spatial memory at 3, 6, and 9 mo of age, we show that acute activation and inhibition of the histone acetyltransferase PCAF remediated memory impairments in 3xTG-AD mice in an age-related bidirectional…

Yiran Li; Tian Xie; Harold Snieder; Catharina A. Hartman – Autism: The International Journal of Research and Practice, 2024
Autistic children often have comorbid somatic problems. However, in adulthood, this has been much less studied. We investigated the associations between autistic symptoms and irritable bowel syndrome, food allergy, pain, and fatigue in adulthood and examined sex and life-course differences herein. A total of 35,048 adults aged from 18 to 90 from…

Lam, Arena C.; Berliner, BethAnn; Barrat, Vanessa X. – Regional Educational Laboratory West, 2021
Even before COVID-19, school districts wanted to understand if school-based telemedicine services met student health needs during the school day and helped keep students in school all day, every day. Specifically, districts were interested in knowing if telemedicine enabled students with a school-day health issue to return to class instead of…

Goldhaber, Dan; Imberman, Scott A.; Strunk, Katharine O.; Hopkins, Bryant; Brown, Nate; Harbatkin, Erica; Kilbride, Tara – National Center for Analysis of Longitudinal Data in Education Research (CALDER), 2021
The decision about how and when to open schools to in-person instruction has been a key question for policymakers throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. The instructional modality of schools has implications not only for the health and safety of students and staff, but also student learning and the degree to which parents can engage in job activities.…

Sullivan, Jessica; Tillman, Katharine; Shtulman, Andrew – Developmental Psychology, 2023
The COVID-19 pandemic has forced children to reckon with the causal relations underlying disease transmission. What are children's theories of how COVID-19 is transmitted? And how do they understand the relation between COVID-19 susceptibility and the need for disease-mitigating behavior? We asked these questions in the context of children's…

Mugoni, Petronella Chipo – Health Education Journal, 2021
Objective: Rising incidence of acquired multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB) in South Africa suggests low knowledge and implementation of infection prevention and control strategies in household and congregate settings. This study contributes to the under-researched area of non-biomedical responses to sub-adherence to treatment. Design: The…

Stajduhar, Andreja; Ganel, Tzvi; Avidan, Galia; Rosenbaum, R. Shayna; Freud, Erez – Cognitive Research: Principles and Implications, 2022
Face perception is considered a remarkable visual ability in humans that is subject to a prolonged developmental trajectory. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, mask-wearing has become mandatory for adults and children alike. Recent research shows that mask-wearing hinders face recognition abilities in adults, but it is unknown if the same holds…

Foote, Alexander G.; Thibeault, Susan L. – Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, 2021
Purpose: The larynx is a uniquely situated organ, juxtaposed between the gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, and endures considerable immunological challenges while providing reflexogenic responses via putative mucosal mechanoreceptor afferents. Laryngeal afferents mediate precise monitoring of sensory events by relay to the internal branch…

Haber, Amanda S.; Kumar, Sona C.; Puttre, Hannah; Dashoush, Nermeen; Corriveau, Kathleen H. – Mind, Brain, and Education, 2022
Question-explanation exchanges in parent-child interactions foster children's early learning, especially when children are inquiring about unobservable scientific phenomena such as the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). As with other unobservable entities, children must rely on adults to acquire knowledge about COVID-19. Yet, we know very little about…
