Artefacts made from stones, bones and teeth are fundamental to our understanding of human subsistence strategies, behaviour and culture in the Pleistocene. Although these resources are plentiful, it is impossible to associate artefacts to specific human individuals1 who can be morphologically or genetically characterized, unless they are found within burials, which are rare in this time period. Thus, our ability to discern the societal roles of Pleistocene individuals based on their biological sex or genetic ancestry is limited2–5. Here we report the development of a non-destructive method for the gradual release of DNA trapped in ancient bone and tooth artefacts. Application of the method to an Upper Palaeolithic deer tooth pendant from Denisova Cave, Russia, resulted in the recovery of ancient human and deer mitochondrial genomes, which allowed us to estimate the age of the pendant at approximately 19,000–25,000 years. Nuclear DNA analysis identifies the presumed maker or wearer o...

Skepticism and the Cognitive Mechanics of Doubt2024 •
Pinillos (2023) provides a cognitive psychological explanation of our skeptical inclinations and utilizes this explanation for a rational explanation of various epistemic phenomena, such as skepticism in its various manifestations, obsessive compulsive disorder, conspiracy theories, relevant alternatives and more. In this paper, I raise concerns about his putatively rational, debunking explanation of radical skepticism. I conclude with some methodological worries about the dialectical transition from a cognitive explanation to a rational explanation.

Sử dụng phương pháp tối ưu giải bài toán đánh giá sai lệch độ trụ từ bộ dữ liệu điểm đo2021 •
Sai lệch độ trụ là sai số tổng hợp đóng vai trò quan trọng trong đánh giá chất lượng các chi tiết cơ khí. Việc đánh giá sai lêch độ trụ thường dựa trên dữ liệu điểm đo xác định bằng máy đo ba toạ độ hoặc các máy quét 3D, máy đo độ tròn. Hiện nay, có 4 thuật toán được sử dụng để tính sai lệch độ trụ: mặt trụ bình phương tối thiểu (Least Square Cylinder – LSC), mặt trụ ngoại tiếp nhỏ nhất (Mimimum Circumscibed Cylinder – MCC), mặt trụ nội tiếp lớn nhất (Maximum Inscribed Cylinder – MIC) và mặt trụ miền tối thiểu (Minumum Zone Cylinder – MZC). Bài báo trình bày phương pháp sử dụng thuật toán tối ưu tính toán đường kính, sai lêch độ trụ từ bộ dữ liệu điểm đo và so sánh kết quả theo cả 4 phương pháp trên với kết quả của máy đo toạ độ (Coordinate Measuring Machine - CMM) với độ sai lệch không vượt quá 0,8 µm.

Principles and Practices of Teaching English Language Learners2019 •
This conceptual paper presents diverse approaches and strategies for preparing competent teachers who work with either English Language Learners (ELLs) or students who speak English as a Second Language (ESL). The pedagogical approaches discussed herein include practical and hands-on activities for teachers at any level. Bilingual learning improves ELL’s cognitive development as well as their self-esteem. The paper outlines underlying principles for the best practices with an emphasis on ESL students and also to other learning situations and students. Teachers can modify their instructional methods to adjust ELL’s learning needs. Specifically, even though the discussion is framed in the context of ESL students in U.S. classrooms, it is applicable to TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) environments in schools and other centers of learning.
