Characterising the stimulus-response function of mouse C-Low threshold mechanoreceptors to mechanical stimuliin vivo (2024)
Working Paper

C-low threshold mechanoreceptors (C-LTMRs) in animals (termed C-tactile (CT) fibres in humans) are a subgroup of C-fibre primary afferents, which innervate hairy skin and respond to low threshold punctate indentations and brush stimuli. These afferen... Read More about Characterising the stimulus-response function of mouse C-Low threshold mechanoreceptors to mechanical stimuliin vivo.

Lazy learning: a biologically-inspired plasticity rule for fast and energy efficient synaptic plasticity (2023)
Working Paper

When training neural networks for classification tasks with backpropagation, parameters are updated on every trial, even if the sample is classified correctly. In contrast, humans concentrate their learning effort on errors. Inspired by human learnin...

Comparative Judgement Modeling to Map Forced Marriage at Local Levels (2023)
Working Paper

Forcing someone into marriage against their will is a violation of their human rights. In 2021, the county of Nottinghamshire, UK, launched a strategy to tackle forced marriage and violence against women and girls. However, accessing information abou...

GPT4 : The Ultimate Brain (2022)
Working Paper

We introduce a powerful general probabilistic theory, GPT4, that extends classical and quantum theories to include higher-dimensional probabilistic models. GPT4 results from the four-fold integration of GPT in physics (Generalized Probabilistic T... Read More about GPT4 : The Ultimate Brain.

Prospective examination of mental health in university students during the COVID-19 pandemic (2021)
Working Paper

Background The impact of changing social restrictions on the mental health of students during the COVID-19 pandemic warrants exploration. Aims To prospectively examine changes to university students’ mental health during the pandemic. Methods S...

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

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...

Experiences of the COVID-19 pandemic: cross-sectional analysis of risk perceptions and mental health in a student cohort (2020)
Working Paper

Objective: This study examined the COVID-19 risk perceptions and mental health of university students on returning to campus in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic. Methods: An online survey was completed during the first four weeks of the academic...

Assessing the impact of physicochemical parameters in the predictive capabilities of thermodynamics-based stoichiometric approaches under mesophilic and thermophilic conditions (2020)
Working Paper

Metabolic engineering in the post-genomic era is characterised by the development of new methods for metabolomics and fluxomics, supported by the integration of genetic engineering tools and mathematical modelling. Particularly, constraint-based stoi...

The spatial percept of tinnitus is associated with hearing asymmetry: subgroup comparisons (2020)
Working Paper

The spatial percept of tinnitus is hypothesized as an important variable for tinnitus subtyping. Hearing asymmetry often associates with tinnitus laterality, but not always. One of the methodological limitations for cross-study comparisons is how the... Read More about The spatial percept of tinnitus is associated with hearing asymmetry: subgroup comparisons.

Unpacking the Allee effect: determining individual-level mechanisms that drive global population dynamics (2020)
Working Paper

We present a solid theoretical foundation for interpreting the origin of Allee effects by providing the missing link in understanding how local individual-based mechanisms translate to global population dynamics. Allee effects were originally propose... Read More about Unpacking the Allee effect: determining individual-level mechanisms that drive global population dynamics.

Three-dimensional plant architecture and sunlit-shaded patterns: a stochastic model of light dynamics in canopies (2018)
Working Paper

Background and Aims Diurnal changes in solar position and intensity combined with the structural complexity of plant architecture result in highly variable and dynamic light patterns within the plant canopy. This affects productivity through the comp... Read More about Three-dimensional plant architecture and sunlit-shaded patterns: a stochastic model of light dynamics in canopies.

Full street simplified three player Kuhn poker (2017)
Working Paper

We study a simplified version of full street, three player Kuhn poker, in which the weakest card, J, must be checked and/or folded by a player who holds it. The number of nontrivial betting frequencies that must be calculated is thereby reduced from... Read More about Full street simplified three player Kuhn poker.
