Challenging thermodynamics: hydrogenation of benzene to 1,3- cyclohexadiene by Ru@Pt nanoparticles (2016)
Journal Article
Weilhard, A., Abarca, G. A., Viscardi, J., Prechtl, M. H., Scholten, J. D., Bernandi, F., …Dupont, J. (in press). Challenging thermodynamics: hydrogenation of benzene to 1,3- cyclohexadiene by Ru@Pt nanoparticles. ChemCatChem, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1002/cctc.201601196

Since the earliest reports on catalytic benzene hydrogenation, 1,3-cyclohexadiene and cyclohexene have been proposed as key intermediates. However, the former has never been obtained with remarkable selectivity. Herein we report the first partial hyd...

Intra-Subject Consistency and Reliability of Response Following 2?mA Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (2016)
Journal Article
Dyke, K., Kim, S., Jackson, G. M., & Jackson, S. R. (2016). Intra-Subject Consistency and Reliability of Response Following 2?mA Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation. Brain Stimulation, 9(6), 819-825. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.brs.2016.06.052

Background Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a popular non-invasive brain stimulation technique that has been shown to influence cortical excitability. While polarity specific effects have often been reported, this is not always th...

Practitioner review: Treatments for Tourette syndrome in children and young people: a systematic review (2016)
Journal Article
Whittington, C., Pennant, M., Kendall, T., Glazebrook, C., Trayner, P., Groom, M. J., …Hollis, C. (in press). Practitioner review: Treatments for Tourette syndrome in children and young people: a systematic review. Journal of Child Psychology and Psychiatry, 57(9), 988-1004. https://doi.org/10.1111/jcpp.12556

Background: Tourette syndrome (TS) and chronic tic disorder (CTD) affect 1–2% of children and young people, but the most effective treatment is unclear. To establish the current evidence base, we conducted a systematic review of interventions for ch...

Hybrid tantalum oxide nanoparticles from the hydrolysis of imidazolium tantalate ionic liquids: efficient catalysts for hydrogen generation from ethanol/water solutions (2016)
Journal Article
Souza, V. S., Scholten, J. D., Weibel, D. E., Eberhardt, D., Baptista, D. L., Teixeira, S. R., & Dupont, J. (2016). Hybrid tantalum oxide nanoparticles from the hydrolysis of imidazolium tantalate ionic liquids: efficient catalysts for hydrogen generation from ethanol/water solutions. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, 4, https://doi.org/10.1039/C6TA02114J

The reaction of equimolar amounts of 1-n-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (BMI·Cl) or 1-n-decyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (DMI·Cl) with TaCl5 affords imidazolium tantalate ionic liquids (ILs) BMI·TaCl61 and DMI·TaCl62. The hydrolysis of ILs 1 an...

Premonitory urges are associated with decreased grey matter thickness within the insula and sensorimotor cortex in young people with Tourette syndrome (2016)
Journal Article
Draper, A., Jackson, G. M., Morgan, P. S., & Jackson, S. R. (2016). Premonitory urges are associated with decreased grey matter thickness within the insula and sensorimotor cortex in young people with Tourette syndrome. Journal of Neuropsychology, 10(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/jnp.12089

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder characterized by vocal and motor tics and is associated with cortical–striatal–thalamic–cortical circuit (CSTC) dysfunction and hyperexcitability of cortical limbic and motor regions, which are though...

Effects of age on motor excitability measures from children and adolescents with Tourette syndrome (2016)
Journal Article
Pépés, S. E., Draper, A., Jackson, G. M., & Jackson, S. R. (2016). Effects of age on motor excitability measures from children and adolescents with Tourette syndrome. Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience, 19, 78-86. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.dcn.2016.02.005

Tourette syndrome (TS) is a neurological disorder characterised by vocal and motor tics. It is associated with cortical–striatal–thalamic–cortical circuit [CSTC] dysfunction and hyper-excitability of cortical motor regions. TS follows a developmental...
