Leaky Scanning02:28

Leaky Scanning

5.8K
During most eukaryotic translation processes, the small 40S ribosome subunit scans an mRNA from its 5' end until it encounters the first start AUG codon. The large 60S ribosomal subunit then joins the smaller one to initiate protein synthesis. The location of the translation initiation is largely determined by the nucleotides near the start codon as there may be multiple translation initiation sites present on the mRNA.  Marilyn Kozak discovered that the sequence RCCAUGG (where R...

Naturalistic Observations

17.9K
If you want to understand how behavior occurs, one of the best ways to gain information is to simply observe the behavior in its natural context. However, people might change their behavior in unexpected ways if they know they are being observed. How do researchers obtain accurate information when people tend to hide their natural behavior? As an example, imagine that your professor asks everyone in your class to raise their hand if they always wash their hands after using the restroom. Chances...

Scanning Electron Microscopy01:07

Scanning Electron Microscopy

5.7K
A scanning electron microscope (SEM) is used to study the surface features of a sample by using an electron beam that scans the sample surface in a two-dimensional manner. Typically, areas between ~1 centimeter to 5 micrometers in width can be imaged. SEM can be used to image bacteria, viruses, tissues as well as larger samples like insects. Conventional SEM gives a magnification ranging from 20X to 30,000X and spatial resolution of 50 to 100 nanometers.

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation01:26

Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy: Instrumentation

885
Inductively coupled plasma (ICP) is the common plasma source used in atomic emission spectroscopy (AES), a technique that detects and analyzes various elements in a sample. This method is often called inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES).
There are three main types of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy  (ICP-AES) instruments: sequential, simultaneous multichannel, and Fourier transform instruments, with the latter being less commonly used....

Actor-Observer Effect01:23

Actor-Observer Effect

461
The actor-observer effect, a cognitive bias closely linked to the fundamental attribution error, refers to the tendency for individuals to attribute their behavior to external, situational factors while explaining others’ behavior in terms of internal, dispositional traits. This asymmetry in attribution significantly influences social perception and judgment.Cognitive Mechanisms Behind the EffectTwo primary psychological mechanisms contribute to the actor-observer effect: differences in...

Eyewitness Memory01:22

Eyewitness Memory

552
Eyewitness memory refers to the recollection of events by someone who has directly witnessed them, often serving as critical evidence in legal settings. This type of memory is commonly used in criminal cases where a witness describes details like a suspect's appearance, clothing, or behavior during a crime. However, despite its perceived reliability, eyewitness memory is prone to significant errors.
One such error is memory distortion, which occurs because human memory does not function...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Patient Care

Background:

  • Medical devices, such as eyeglasses, are crucial for patient care and daily functioning.
  • Misplacement of personal medical items can lead to significant disruptions in healthcare delivery.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the impact of misplaced patient eyeglasses on appointment duration and patient experience.
  • To identify potential systemic issues contributing to the loss of patient belongings within a clinical setting.

Main Methods:

  • A case study approach was employed to document the incident.
  • Interviews with clinical staff and the patient were conducted to gather information.
  • Timeline analysis of the event was performed.

Main Results:

  • A prolonged search for a patient's bifocals significantly extended the consultation time.
  • The patient reported distress due to the inability to locate her eyeglasses.
  • The incident underscores challenges in managing patient personal items within clinical environments.

Conclusions:

  • The loss of patient eyeglasses can negatively impact healthcare efficiency and patient satisfaction.
  • Implementing improved protocols for handling and securing patient belongings is recommended.
  • Further research into patient-specific needs regarding medical devices is warranted.
