Journal ArticleDOI
Design and field experimentation of a prototype Lunar prospector
David Wettergreen,Scott Moreland,Krzysztof Skonieczny,Dominic Jonak,David Kohanbash,James Teza +5 more
TL;DR: Scarab is a prototype rover for Lunar missions to survey resources in polar craters that would use a deep coring drill and apply soil analysis instruments to measure the abundance of elements of hydrogen and oxygen and other volatiles including water.
Achieving the Millennium Development Goals: the contribution of fulfilling the unmet need for family planning.
Scott Moreland,Talbird S +1 more
TL;DR: This report shows how increased use of family planning could lower the costs of meeting the MDGs and compares those cost savings with the extra costs of increased family planning using a benefit-cost framework.
Journal ArticleDOI
Availability of essential drugs for managing HIV-related pain and symptoms within 120 PEPFAR-funded health facilities in East Africa: a cross-sectional survey with onsite verification.
Richard Harding,Victoria Simms,Victoria Simms,Suzanne Penfold,Suzanne Penfold,Julia Downing,Richard A Powell,Faith Mwangi-Powell,Eve Namisango,Scott Moreland,Nancy Gikaara,Mackuline Atieno,Jennifer Kataike,Clare Nsubuga,Grace Munene,Geoffrey Banga,Irene J Higginson +16 more
TL;DR: The data demonstrate poor essential drug availability, particularly analgesia, limited by facility type, and the lack of strong opioids, isoniazid and paediatric formulations is concerning.
Journal ArticleDOI
Relating geologic units and mobility system kinematics contributing to Curiosity wheel damage at Gale Crater, Mars
Raymond E. Arvidson,P. DeGrosse,John P. Grotzinger,Matthew Heverly,J. Shechet,Scott Moreland,M.A. Newby,Nathaniel Stein,A.C. Steffy,Feng Zhou,A.M. Zastrow,Ashwin R. Vasavada,Abigail A. Fraeman,E.K. Stilly +13 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that initial drives across sharp sandstone outcrops initiated an unacceptably high rate of punctures and cracks in the thin aluminum wheel skin structures, due to drive control mode of the six wheel drive actuators and the kinematics of the rocker-bogie suspension.
Sexuality education in schools: the international experience and implications for Nigeria.
TL;DR: The international experience in carrying out school-based sexuality education programs and the applicability of this experience to Nigeria are summarized to support the efforts of Nigerians to implement the country’s new policy on sexuality and reproductive health education.
