GENDER IMBALANCE AMONGST PROMOTION AND LEADERSHIP IN ACADEMIC SURGICAL PROGRAMS IN CANADA: A CROSS-SECTIONAL INVESTIGATION.

Gender imbalance amongst promotion and leadership in academic surgical programs in Canada: A cross-sectional Investigation.

BackgroundWomen are underrepresented at higher levels of promotion or leadership despite the increasing number of women physicians.In surgery, this has been compounded by historical underrepresentation.With a nation-wide focus on the importance of diversity, our aim was to provide a current snapshot of Coffee Table Package gender representation in

ToF-SIMS 3D Analysis of Thin Films Deposited in High Aspect Ratio Structures via Atomic Layer Deposition and Chemical Vapor Deposition

For the analysis of thin films, with high aspect ratio (HAR) structures, time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) overcomes several challenges in comparison to other frequently used techniques such as electron microscopy.The research presented herein focuses on two different kinds of HAR structures that represent different semicond

Multilayer atomic cluster expansion for semilocal interactions

Traditionally, interatomic potentials assume local bond formation supplemented by long-range electrostatic interactions when necessary.This ignores intermediate-range multiatom interactions that arise from TV Mounting Kit the relaxation of the electronic structure.Here, we present the multilayer atomic cluster expansion (ml-ACE) that includes colle

PREDATION OF Boophilus microplus (CANESTRINI, 1887) (ACARI: IXODIDAE) TICK ENGORGED FEMALE BY THE ANT Pachycondyla striata (SMITH, 1858) (HYMENOPTERA: FORMICIDAE) IN PASTURES

Faced with difficulties in the chemical control of Boophilus microplus, this work intended to observe the principal predator of engorged females in pastures of the grass Brachiaria decumbens, at Juiz de Fora, MG, Brazil.A total of 300 engorged female were used, between six experimental repetitions during the winter of 1998 and the Sugar Decorations
