Book Chapter
Alibhai, A., Saigar, M. M., Harding, E., & Rutland, C. S. (2017). Is Your Extra X Chromosome Holding You Back? An Insight into Female Education and Academic Careers in STEMM. In New pedagogical challenges in the 21st century. InTech. https://doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.71898

This review discusses whether gender inequality still exists within medical, scientific and engineering academia, with regards to the career development of academic staff. In the 1970s it was suggested that women who are talented and educated with fa... Read More about Is Your Extra X Chromosome Holding You Back?

MicroRNAs (miRNAs or miRs) are involved in pathways central to homeostasis and cellular function, including proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis; processes which when aberrantly regulated contribute to the hallmarks of cancer. The contributi... Read More about Epigenetic control of microRNA expression and cancer.

Heterochromatin modulation and PCG control of gene expression mediated by noncoding RNA in cancer (2017)
Book Chapter
Rutland, C. S., de Brot, S., James, V., & Mongan, N. P. (2018). Heterochromatin modulation and PCG control of gene expression mediated by noncoding RNA in cancer. In J. Chakrabarti, & S. Mitra (Eds.), Cancer and Noncoding RNAs (359-372). Elsevier. https://doi.org/10.1016/b978-0-12-811022-5.00019-x

In eukaryotes, the packaging of DNA and proteins, termed chromatin, is an essential determinant of transcription. The basic unit of chromatin, the nucleosome, is composed of ∼146 base pairs of DNA spooled around a dense protein core containing two co...

The utilisation of Computed Tomography (CT) in veterinary practice has been increasing rapidly in line with reduced cost, improved availability and the increase in expertise and technology. This review briefly examines the recent technological advanc... Read More about Computed tomography in veterinary medicine: currently published and tomorrow’s vision.

Fatty acids in veterinary medicine and research (2017)
Book Chapter
Rutland, C. S., Mostyn, A., & Simpson, S. (2017). Fatty acids in veterinary medicine and research. In A. Catala (Ed.), Fatty acids. InTechOpen. https://doi.org/10.5772/intechopen.68440

Fatty acid regulation is an essential process for all animals. A number of studies have shown that diet affects the levels/availability of fatty acids in the body but increasingly evidence shows that disease states can alter the amounts within the bo...
