Pilot Randomised Evaluation of Singing in Dementia (PRESIDE): protocol for a two-arm, parallel group randomised controlled feasibility study with waiting-list control (2021)
Journal Article
Dowson, B., Schneider, J., Guo, B., Bath, P. M., Mcdermott, O., Haywood, L. J., & Orrell, M. (2021). Pilot Randomised Evaluation of Singing in Dementia (PRESIDE): protocol for a two-arm, parallel group randomised controlled feasibility study with waiting-list control. Pilot and Feasibility Studies, 7, Article 15. https://doi.org/10.1186/s40814-020-00759-y

Background As the number of people living with dementia grows, so does the need to provide them with adequate psychosocial support. Many people with dementia live at home with family carers, who also require social and emotional support to cope wi...

The search for meaningful structure in biological data has relied on cutting-edge advances in computational technology and data science methods. However, challenges arise as we push the limits of scale and complexity in biological problems. Innovatio... Read More about Quantum computing at the frontiers of biological sciences.

Can listening-related fatigue influence well-being? Examining associations between hearing loss, fatigue, activity levels and well-being (2021)
Journal Article
Holman, J. A., Hornsby, B. W. Y., Bess, F. H., & Naylor, G. (2021). Can listening-related fatigue influence well-being? Examining associations between hearing loss, fatigue, activity levels and well-being. International Journal of Audiology, 60(sup2), 47-59. https://doi.org/10.1080/14992027.2020.1853261

Objective Well-being is influenced by the activities we undertake. Hearing loss may reduce well-being directly through increased listening-related fatigue due to cognitive and emotional strain in challenging situations. Hearing loss and hearing devi...

Neural Fields with Rebound Currents: Novel Routes to Patterning (2021)
Journal Article
Modhara, S., Lai, Y. M., Thul, R., & Coombes, S. (2021). Neural Fields with Rebound Currents: Novel Routes to Patterning. SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems, 20(3), 1596-1620. https://doi.org/10.1137/20M1364710

The understanding of how spatio-temporal patterns of neural activity may arise in the cortex of the brain has advanced with the development and analysis of neural field models. To replicate this success for sub-cortical tissues, such as the thalamus,... Read More about Neural Fields with Rebound Currents: Novel Routes to Patterning.

Associations Between Hearing and Cognitive Abilities From Childhood to Middle Age: The National Child Development Study 1958 (2021)
Journal Article
