- Objectives: To assess whether city-level characteristics influence the risk of intimate partner violence (IPV) victimization across six European cities. Methods: The DOVE study included 3496 participants from Athens–Greece, Budapest–Hungary, London–UK, Östersund–Sweden, Porto–Portugal and Stuttgart–Germany. IPV victimization was assessed using the Revised Conflict Tactics Scales, and several contextual variables were included: GINI coefficient, gender equality index, an index of social support, unemployment rate and proportion of residents with tertiary education. Multilevel models were fitted to estimate the associations (odds ratio, 95% confidence intervals) between each type of victimization and contextual and individual-level variables. Results: 62.3% of the participants reported being a victim of IPV during the previous year, with large between-city differences (53.9%–72.4%). Contextual variables accounted for a substantial amount of this heterogeneity. Unemployment rates were associated with psychological (1.05, 1.01–1.08) and physical IPV (1.07, 1.01–1.13). GINI coefficient showed a positive association with any form of IPV (1.06, 1.01–1.11) and sexual coercion (1.13, 1.01–1.25). Conclusions: We found significant associations between contextual determinants and IPV, which emphasizes the importance of considering contextual socioeconomic conditions when policy measures are designed to address IPV.

ALMA Band 2 Cold Cartridge Assembly Design
- 2022
-
In: 32nd International Symposium of Space Terahertz Technology, ISSTT 2022.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- As part of the ALMA development, we present the design of the ALMA Band 2 Cold Cartridge Assembly (CCA). The Band 2 is the last band that completes the suit of the 10 receiver channels of ALMA. The originally planned ALMA Band 2 receiver cartridge should cover the RF band of 67 - -90 GHz. The recent progress in technology, optics, OMT design and mm-wave amplifiers, however allowed to implement receiver that has an extended RF band up to 116 GHz. Furthermore, the Band 2 receiver pursues 2SB layout and provides 4-18 GHz IF band for two sidebands in a dual-polarization configuration. Here, we describe the design of the Band 2 CCA that includes optics, amplifier assembly, internal RF transport, mechanics and cryogenics. The downconverter part and performances are described elsewhere.

DNA threading intercalation of enantiopure Ru(phen)(2)bidppz (2+) induced by hydrophobic catalysis
- 2021

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- The enantiomers of a novel mononuclear ruthenium(II) complex [Ru(phen)(2)bidppz](2+) with an elongated dppz moiety were synthesized. Surprisingly, the complex showed no DNA intercalating capability in an aqueous environment. However, by the addition of water-miscible polyethylene glycol ether PEG-400, self-aggregation of the hydrophobic ruthenium(II) complexes was counter-acted, thus strongly promoting the DNA intercalation binding mode. This mild alteration of the environment surrounding the DNA polymer does not damage or alter the DNA structure but instead enables more efficient binding characterization studies of potential DNA binding drugs.
