Effects of α-synuclein overexpression in transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans strains (2012)
Journal Article
Bodhicharla, R., Nagarajan, A., Winter, J., Adenle, A., Nazir, A., Brady, D., Vere, K., Richens, J., O'Shea, P., Bell, D. R., & de Pomerai, D. I. (2012). Effects of α-synuclein overexpression in transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans strains. CNS and Neurological Disorders - Drug Targets, 11(8), https://doi.org/10.2174/1871527311211080005

The neural protein α-synuclein aggregates both in vivo and in vitro to form insoluble fibrils that are involved in
Parkinson’s disease pathogenesis. We have generated α-synuclein/fluorescent-protein fusion constructs overexpressed in muscle cells of... Read More about Effects of α-synuclein overexpression in transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans strains.

Magnetic field effects on the vestibular system: calculation of the pressure on the cupula due to ionic current-induced Lorentz force (2012)
Journal Article
Antunes, A., Glover, P., Li, Y., Mian, O., & Day, B. (2012). Magnetic field effects on the vestibular system: calculation of the pressure on the cupula due to ionic current-induced Lorentz force. Physics in Medicine and Biology, 57(14), https://doi.org/10.1088/0031-9155/57/14/4477

Large static magnetic fields may be employed in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). At high magnetic field strengths (usually from about 3 tesla and above) it is possible for humans to perceive a number of effects. One such effect is mild vertigo. Rece...

Minkowski polynomials and mutations (2012)
Journal Article
Akhtar, M., Coates, T., Galkin, S., & Kasprzyk, A. M. (2012). Minkowski polynomials and mutations. Symmetry, Integrability and Geometry: Methods and Applications, 8, Article 094, pp. 707. https://doi.org/10.3842/SIGMA.2012.094

Given a Laurent polynomial f, one can form the period of f: this is a function of one complex variable that plays an important role in mirror symmetry for Fano manifolds. Mutations are a particular class of birational transformations acting on Lauren... Read More about Minkowski polynomials and mutations.

Neuroemulation: definition and key benefits for water resources research (2012)
Journal Article
Abrahart, R., Mount, N. J., & Shamseldin, A. (2012). Neuroemulation: definition and key benefits for water resources research. Hydrological Sciences Journal, 57(3), https://doi.org/10.1080/02626667.2012.658401

Neuroemulation is the art and science of using a neural network model to replicate the external behaviour of some other model and it is an activity that is distinct from neural-network-based simulation. Whilst is has become a recognised and establish... Read More about Neuroemulation: definition and key benefits for water resources research.

Enclosure stories: narratives from Northamptonshire (2012)
Journal Article
McDonagh, B., & Daniels, S. (2012). Enclosure stories: narratives from Northamptonshire. cultural geographies, 19(1), https://doi.org/10.1177/1474474011427361

This paper rethinks and revises enclosure narratives, thickening the concept of enclosure by researching a particular place and period: the English Midland county of Northamptonshire in the period between the 16th and the 19th centuries. It argues th... Read More about Enclosure stories: narratives from Northamptonshire.

A user-centred approach to requirements elicitation in medical device development: a case study from an industry perspective (2012)
Journal Article
Martin, J. L., Clarke, D. J., Crowe, J. A., Morgan, S. P., & Murphy, E. (2012). A user-centred approach to requirements elicitation in medical device development: a case study from an industry perspective. Applied Ergonomics, 43(1), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.apergo.2011.05.002

The healthcare industry is dependent upon the provision of well designed medical devices. To achieve this it is recommended that user-centred design should begin early, and continue throughout device development. This is a challenge, particularly f...

Perceptual learning reduces crowding in amblyopia and in the normal periphery (2012)
Journal Article
Hussain, Z., Webb, B. S., Astle, A. T., & McGraw, P. V. (2012). Perceptual learning reduces crowding in amblyopia and in the normal periphery. Journal of Neuroscience, 32(2), https://doi.org/10.1523/JNEUROSCI.3845-11.2012

Amblyopia is a developmental visual disorder of cortical origin, characterized by crowding and poor acuity in central vision of the affected eye. Crowding refers to the adverse effects of surrounding items on object identification, common only in nor...

The threat to Israel’s identity in Deuteronomy: Mesopotamian or Levantine? (2012)
Journal Article
Crouch, C. (2012). The threat to Israel’s identity in Deuteronomy: Mesopotamian or Levantine?. Zeitschrift für die Alttestamentliche Wissenschaft, 124(4), https://doi.org/10.1515/zaw-2012-0038

Deuteronomy contains a number of indications which locate its interests in the Levant rather than in Mesopotamia. This observation challenges two major theories of the book’s origins: Deuteronomy as pre-exilic attempt to subvert Assyrian imperial pow...
