Increasing numbers of women are surviving breast cancer, but little is known about the long-term implications of having survived a life-threatening illness and living with embodied reminders of its potential to return. Twenty-four women aged between... Read More about A new normal?: Women's experiences of biographical disruption and liminality following treatment for early stage breast cancer.

How people come to recognise a problem and seek medical help for a person showing early signs of dementia: a systematic review and meta-ethnography (2016)
Journal Article
Perry-Young, L., Owen, G., Kelly, S., & Owens, C. (2016). How people come to recognise a problem and seek medical help for a person showing early signs of dementia: a systematic review and meta-ethnography. Dementia, https://doi.org/10.1177/1471301215626889

Evidence suggests that there is usually a long delay between noticing first signs of dementia and seeking medical help. We conducted a systematic review of what people experience and how they make decisions during this time, and used a meta-ethnograp...

This paper argues that new rounds of socioeconomic reforms in post-1949 China, each with their distinct geographical expressions, constitute a complex palimpsest rather than a straightforward process of historical succession. Drawing on a review of e... Read More about On the shifting spatial logics of socioeconomic regulation in post-1949 China.

Quantum thermodynamics for a model of an expanding Universe (2016)
Journal Article
Nana Liu, Goold, J., Fuentes, I., Vedral, V., Modi, K., & Bruschi, D. E. (2016). Quantum thermodynamics for a model of an expanding Universe. Classical and Quantum Gravity, 33(3), 035003. https://doi.org/10.1088/0264-9381/33/3/035003

We investigate the thermodynamical properties of quantum fields in curved spacetime. Our approach is to consider quantum fields in curved spacetime as a quantum system undergoing an out-of-equilibrium transformation. The non-equilibrium features are...

A novel Bayesian approach to accounting for uncertainty in fMRI-derived estimates of cerebral oxygen metabolism fluctuations (2016)
Journal Article

Calibrated blood oxygenation level dependent (BOLD) imaging is a multimodal functional MRI technique designed to estimate changes in cerebral oxygen metabolism from measured changes in cerebral blood flow and the BOLD signal. This technique addresses... Read More about A novel Bayesian approach to accounting for uncertainty in fMRI-derived estimates of cerebral oxygen metabolism fluctuations.

Using mobile media creation to structure museum interpretation with professional vision (2016)
Journal Article
Muñoz Civantos, A., Brown, M., Coughlan, T., Ainsworth, S. E., & Lorenz, K. (2016). Using mobile media creation to structure museum interpretation with professional vision. Personal and Ubiquitous Computing, 20(1), https://doi.org/10.1007/s00779-015-0895-3

Mobile technology plays an increasing role in museum and cultural heritage contexts. In most cases, these tools support the relatively passive consumption of expert interpretations, or the unguided generation of content by users. This paper explores...
