OptoRheo: Simultaneous in situ micro-mechanical sensing and 3D imaging of live cell cultures (2023)
Working Paper
Mendonca, T., Lis-Slimak, K., Matheson, A. B., Smith, M. G., Anane-Adjei, A. B., Cavanagh, R., …Wright, A. J. OptoRheo: Simultaneous in situ micro-mechanical sensing and 3D imaging of live cell cultures

Biomechanical cues from the extracellular matrix (ECM) are essential for directing many cellular processes, from normal development and repair, to disease progression. To better understand cell-matrix interactions, we have developed a new instrument... Read More about OptoRheo: Simultaneous in situ micro-mechanical sensing and 3D imaging of live cell cultures.

Temporal trends in the incidence of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a nationwide cohort study from England 2003-2018 (2022)
Working Paper
West, J., Stilwell, P., Liu, H., Ban, L., Bythell, M., Card, T. R., …Crooks, C. J. Temporal trends in the incidence of haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis: a nationwide cohort study from England 2003-2018

Background Haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is rare, results in high mortality and is increasingly being diagnosed. Little is known about what is driving the apparent rise in the incidence of this disease. Methods Using national linked el...

Students’ Views Towards SARS-CoV-2 Mass Asymptomatic Testing, Social Distancing and Self-Isolation in a University Setting during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Qualitative Study (2021)
Working Paper
Blake, H., Knight, H., Jia, R., Corner, J., Morling, J. R., Denning, C., …Vedhara, K. Students’ Views Towards SARS-CoV-2 Mass Asymptomatic Testing, Social Distancing and Self-Isolation in a University Setting during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Qualitative Study

We aimed to explore university students’ perceptions and experiences of SARS-CoV-2 mass asymptomatic testing, social distancing and self-isolation during the COVID-19 pandemic. This qualitative study comprised of four rapid online focus groups conduc...

Thioredoxin system protein expression in carcinomas of the pancreas, bile duct and ampulla (2019)
Working Paper
Al-hadyan, K., Storr, S., Zaitoun, A., Lobo, D., & Martin, S. Thioredoxin system protein expression in carcinomas of the pancreas, bile duct and ampulla

Background: Pancreatic cancer (PC), including the ampulla and bile duct, is very aggressive, and thus difficult to treat with effective therapies. The current treatment options have failed to improve PC five-year survival rates over the last 30 to 40...
