Adherence to limiting weight-bearing activity in patients with diabetic foot ulcers: A qualitative study (2023)
Journal Article
Hancox, J. E., Hilton, C., Gray, K., Game, F., & Vedhara, K. (in press). Adherence to limiting weight-bearing activity in patients with diabetic foot ulcers: A qualitative study. International Wound Journal,

Aims: Patients with diabetic foot ulcers are advised to limit weight-bearing activity for ulcers to heal. Patients often disregard this advice although the reasons are not yet fully understood. This study explored 1) patients’ experiences of receivin... Read More about Adherence to limiting weight-bearing activity in patients with diabetic foot ulcers: A qualitative study.

Non-reversibility outperforms functional connectivity in characterisation of brain states in MEG data (2023)
Journal Article
Tewarie, P. K. B., Hindriks, R., Lai, Y. M., Sotiropoulos, S. N., Kringelbach, M., & Deco, G. (in press). Non-reversibility outperforms functional connectivity in characterisation of brain states in MEG data. NeuroImage, Article 120186. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neuroimage.2023.120186

Characterising brain states during tasks is common practice for many neuroscientific experiments using electrophysiological modalities such as electroencephalography (EEG) and magnetoencephalography (MEG). Brain states are often described in terms of... Read More about Non-reversibility outperforms functional connectivity in characterisation of brain states in MEG data.

Fostering purposeful engagement by building staff-student communities (2022)
Journal Article
Brignell, C., Brady, C., Mott, L., & Wicks, T. (2022). Fostering purposeful engagement by building staff-student communities. Student Engagement in Higher Education Journal, 4(2), 52–62

In response to the Covid-19 pandemic, many universities moved to a blended delivery of online and in-person teaching. While necessary for public health, this significant disruption to education risked greater isolation and anxiety for students with...

The effect of incentivising pre-class reading on engagement and student performance (2023)
Journal Article
Shaker, A. J., Brignell, C., & Pugh, M. (2023). The effect of incentivising pre-class reading on engagement and student performance. International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 1-17. https://doi.org/10.1080/0020739X.2023.2214562

A commonly-held belief is that many university students are ‘assessment-driven’; that is, students engage more with activities that are assessed compared with those that are not. ‘Incentivised engagement’ includes the practice of providing incentives...

Signatures of Quantum Chaos of Rydberg-Dressed Bosons in a Triple-Well Potential (2023)
Journal Article
Yan, T., Collins, M., Nath, R., & Li, W. (2023). Signatures of Quantum Chaos of Rydberg-Dressed Bosons in a Triple-Well Potential. Atoms, 11(6), 89. https://doi.org/10.3390/atoms11060089

We studied signatures of quantum chaos in dynamics of Rydberg-dressed bosonic atoms held in a one-dimensional triple-well potential. Long-range nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor interactions, induced by laser dressing atoms to strongly inter...
