Astrophysical uncertainties on stellar microlensing constraints on multi-solar mass primordial black hole dark matter (2017)
Journal Article
Green, A. M. (2017). Astrophysical uncertainties on stellar microlensing constraints on multi-solar mass primordial black hole dark matter. Physical Review D, 96, Article 043020. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.96.043020

There has recently been interest in multi-Solar mass Primordial Black Holes (PBHs) as a dark matter (DM) candidate. There are various microlensing, dynamical and accretion constraints on the abundance of PBHs in this mass range. Taken at face value t...

Background: Feeding triggers inter-related gastrointestinal (GI) motor, peptide and appetite responses. These are rarely studied together due to methodological limitations. Recent MRI advances allow pan-intestinal, non-invasive assessment of motility... Read More about MRI assessment of the postprandial gastrointestinal motility and peptide response in healthy humans.

Label-free Raman hyperspectral imaging of single cells cultured on polymer substrates (2017)
Journal Article

While Raman hyper-spectral imaging has been widely used for label-free mapping of biomolecules in cells, these measurements require the cells to be cultured on weakly Raman scattering substrates. However, many applications in biological sciences and... Read More about Label-free Raman hyperspectral imaging of single cells cultured on polymer substrates.
