Campylobacter jejuni acquire new host-derived CRISPR spacers when in association with bacteriophages harboring a CRISPR-like Cas4 protein (2015)
Journal Article

Campylobacter jejuni is a worldwide cause of human diarrhoeal disease. Clustered Repetitively Interspaced Palindromic Repeats (CRISPRs) and associated proteins allow Bacteria and Archaea to evade bacteriophage and plasmid infection. Type II CRISPR sy...

Permanent magnet machine design trade-offs to achieve sensorless control at high load (2015)
Journal Article

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new design optimization technique for a surface mounted permanent magnet (SMPM) machine to increase sensorless performance at high loadings by compromising with torque capability. Design/meth... Read More about Permanent magnet machine design trade-offs to achieve sensorless control at high load.

Analog quantum simulation of gravitational waves in a Bose-Einstein condensate (2015)
Journal Article

We show how to vary the physical properties of a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in order to mimic an effective gravitational-wave spacetime. In particular, we focus in the simulation of the recently discovered creation of particles by a real spacetim...

Epidrug mediated re-expression of miRNA targeting the HMGA transcripts in pituitary cells (2015)
Journal Article

Transgenic mice overexpressing the high mobility group A (HMGA) genes, Hmga1 or Hmga2 develop pituitary tumours and their overexpression is also a frequent finding in human pituitary adenomas. In some cases, increased expression of HMGA2 but not that... Read More about Epidrug mediated re-expression of miRNA targeting the HMGA transcripts in pituitary cells.

Electrophysiological evidence for retrieval mode immediately after a task switch (2015)
Journal Article

It has been suggested that retrieving episodic information can involve adopting a cognitive state or set: retrieval mode. In a series of studies, an event-related potential (ERP) index of retrieval mode has been identified in designs which cue partic...

Expressiveness modulo bisimilarity of regular expressions with parallel composition (2015)
Journal Article

© Cambridge University Press 2015. The languages accepted by finite automata are precisely the languages denoted by regular expressions. In contrast, finite automata may exhibit behaviours that cannot be described by regular expressions up to bisimil...

Highly evolvable malaria vectors: the genomes of 16 Anopheles mosquitoes (2015)
Journal Article

Variation in vectorial capacity for human malaria among Anopheles mosquito species is determined by many factors, including behavior, immunity, and life history. To investigate the genomic basis of vectorial capacity and explore new avenues for vecto... Read More about Highly evolvable malaria vectors: the genomes of 16 Anopheles mosquitoes.

Bringing installation art to reconnaissance to share values and generate action (2015)
Journal Article

The English education system has recently seen something of a revival of enthusiasm for the use of research both to develop educational practices and to gather evidence about their effectiveness. These initiatives often present action research as a m... Read More about Bringing installation art to reconnaissance to share values and generate action.

Macroprudential and monetary policy rules: a welfare analysis (2015)
Journal Article

This paper studies the interaction between macroprudential and monetary policies, using a DSGE model with a housing market and collateral constraints. Monetary policy follows a standard Taylor rule for the interest rate. The macroprudential authority... Read More about Macroprudential and monetary policy rules: a welfare analysis.

The environmental dependence of the structure of galactic discs in STAGES S0 galaxies: implications for S0 formation (2015)
Journal Article

We present an analysis of V-band radial surface brightness ?(r) profiles for S0 galaxies in different environments using Hubble Space Telescope/Advanced Camera for Surveys imaging and data from the Space Telescope A901/2 Galaxy Evolution Survey. Usin... Read More about The environmental dependence of the structure of galactic discs in STAGES S0 galaxies: implications for S0 formation.

Sub-100 nm resolution microscopy based on proximity projection grating scheme (2015)
