Eukaryotic elongation factor 2 kinase regulates the cold stress response by slowing translation elongation (2015)
Journal Article

Cells respond to external stress conditions by controlling gene expression, a process which occurs rapidly via post-transcriptional regulation at the level of protein synthesis. Global control of translation is mediated by modification of translation...

A new framework for cortico-striatal plasticity: behavioural theory meets In vitro data at the reinforcement-action interface (2015)
Journal Article

Operant learning requires that reinforcement signals interact with action representations at a suitable neural interface. Much evidence suggests that this occurs when phasic dopamine, acting as a reinforcement prediction error, gates plasticity at co...

Adrenomedullary progenitor cells: isolation and characterization of a multi-potent progenitor cell population (2015)
Journal Article

The adrenal is a highly plastic organ with the ability to adjust to physiological needs by adapting hormone production but also by generating and regenerating both adrenocortical and adrenomedullary tissue. It is now apparent that many adult tissues... Read More about Adrenomedullary progenitor cells: isolation and characterization of a multi-potent progenitor cell population.

Rehabilitation of memory following brain injury (ReMemBrIn): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial (2015)
Journal Article

Background Impairments of memory are commonly reported by people with traumatic brain injuries (TBI). Such deficits are persistent, debilitating, and can severely impact quality of life. Currently, many do not routinely receive follow-up appointment... Read More about Rehabilitation of memory following brain injury (ReMemBrIn): study protocol for a randomised controlled trial.

Investigating common clinical presentations in first opinion small animal consultations using direct observation (2015)
Journal Article

Understanding more about the clinical presentations encountered in veterinary practice is vital in directing research towards areas relevant to practitioners. The aim of this study was to describe all problems discussed during a convenience sample of...

Palladium nanoparticles in catalytic carbon nanoreactors: the effect of confinement on Suzuki-Miyaura reactions (2015)
Journal Article

We explore the construction and performance of a range of catalytic nanoreactors based on palladium nanoparticles encapsulated in hollow graphitised nanofibres. The optimum catalytic material, with small palladium nanoparticles located almost exclusi...

High-density mapping of the MHC identifies a shared role for HLA-DRB1(star)01:03 in inflammatory bowel diseases and heterozygous advantage in ulcerative colitis (2015)
Journal Article

Genome-wide association studies of the related chronic inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) known as Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis have shown strong evidence of association to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). This region encodes a la...
