Unruptured arteriovenous malformations of the brain (2007)
Journal Article
Al-Shahi Salman, R., Mast, H., & Stapf, C. (2007). Unruptured arteriovenous malformations of the brain. Advances in Clinical Neuroscience and Rehabilitation, 6(6),

Unruptured, asymptomatic arteriovenous malformations (AVMs) lurk in the brains of approximately one person in every thousand; their prevalence, based on four studies of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of 7,359 people without brain disorders, 1-4 was...

Conditional moment closure for chemical reactions in laminar chaotic flows (2007)
Journal Article
Vikhansky, A., & Cox, S. M. (2007). Conditional moment closure for chemical reactions in laminar chaotic flows. AIChE Journal, 53(1),

We implement conditional moment closure (CMC) for simulation of chemical reactions in laminar chaotic flows. The CMC approach predicts the expected concentration of reactive species, conditional upon the concentration of a corresponding nonreactive s...

Anthelmintic action of plant cysteine proteinases against the rodent stomach nematode, Protospirura muricola, in vitro and in vivo (2007)
Journal Article
Stepek, G., Lowe, A., Buttle, D. J., Duce, I., & Behnke, J. M. (2007). Anthelmintic action of plant cysteine proteinases against the rodent stomach nematode, Protospirura muricola, in vitro and in vivo. Parasitology, 134(1), https://doi.org/10.1017/S0031182006001302

Cysteine proteinases from the fruit and latex of plants, including papaya, pineapple and fig, were previously shown to have a rapid detrimental effect, in vitro, against the rodent gastrointestinal nematodes, Heligmosomoides polygyrus (which is found...

Avian flu: the creation of expectations in the interplay between science and the media (2007)
Journal Article
Nerlich, B., & Halliday, C. (2007). Avian flu: the creation of expectations in the interplay between science and the media. Sociology of Health and Illness, 29(1), https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1467-9566.2007.00517.x

This paper examines the emerging cultural patterns and interpretative repertoires in reports of an impending pandemic of avian flu in the UK mass media and scientific journals at the beginning of 2005, paying particular attention to metaphors, pragma...

A graph-based hyper heuristic for timetabling problems (2007)
Journal Article
Burke, E., MacCloumn, B., Meisels, A., Petrovic, S., & Qu, R. (2007). A graph-based hyper heuristic for timetabling problems. European Journal of Operational Research, 176(1), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2005.08.012

This paper presents an investigation of a simple generic hyper-heuristic approach upon a set of widely used constructive heuristics (graph coloring heuristics) in timetabling. Within the hyperheuristic framework, a Tabu Search approach is employed to... Read More about A graph-based hyper heuristic for timetabling problems.

Meyerbeer's "L'Africaine": French grand opera and the Iberian exotic (2007)
Journal Article
Andrews, J. (2007). Meyerbeer's "L'Africaine": French grand opera and the Iberian exotic. Modern Language Review, 102(1),

Meyerbeer's grand opera L'Africaine (1865) tells the story of the sixteenth-century Portuguese explorer Vasco da Gama's triumphant journey back from the east African coast and his love for an African slave. It raises questions relating to the repres... Read More about Meyerbeer's "L'Africaine": French grand opera and the Iberian exotic.
