One size does not fit all: Impact of hand size on ease of use of instruments for minimally invasive surgery (2022)
Journal Article
Green, S. V., Morris, D. E., Naumann, D. N., Rhodes, H. L., Burns, J. K., Roberts, R., …Morris, L. (2023). One size does not fit all: Impact of hand size on ease of use of instruments for minimally invasive surgery. The Surgeon, 21(5), 267-272. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.surge.2022.11.001

Background: Consideration of ergonomic factors is important for the practice of safe and efficient minimally invasive surgery (MIS). Surgeons with smaller glove sizes have previously been reported to have increased difficulties with some minimally in...

Towards a regional approach for skills policy (2022)
Journal Article
Corradini, C., Morris, D., & Vanino, E. (2023). Towards a regional approach for skills policy. Regional Studies, 57(6), 1043-1054. https://doi.org/10.1080/00343404.2022.2031950

Focusing on the UK as a case study, this paper offers a critical discussion of current approaches for skills policy in the context of the increasing spatial imbalances that characterize advanced economies. We outline an integrated framework for regio... Read More about Towards a regional approach for skills policy.

The effect of regional skill gaps and skill shortages on firm productivity (2019)
Journal Article
Morris, D., Vanino, E., & Corradini, C. (2020). The effect of regional skill gaps and skill shortages on firm productivity. Environment and Planning A, 52(5), 933-952. https://doi.org/10.1177/0308518X19889634

This paper contributes to the literature on regional productivity, complementing previous education and skill level perspectives with a novel approach analysing the impact of regional skill gaps and skill shortages. This allows us to better reflect t... Read More about The effect of regional skill gaps and skill shortages on firm productivity.

A web-based tool for eliciting probability distributions from experts (2013)
Journal Article
Morris, D. E., Oakley, J. E., & Crowe, J. A. (2014). A web-based tool for eliciting probability distributions from experts. Environmental Modelling and Software, 52, 1-4. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.envsoft.2013.10.010

We present a web-based probability distribution elicitation tool: The MATCH Uncertainty Elicitation Tool. The Tool is designed to help elicit probability distributions about uncertain model parameters from experts, in situations where suitable data i...
