Moving to another world: understanding the impact of clinical trial closure on research participants living with HIV in Uganda (2019)
Journal Article

Despite an increasing need for clinical trials involving people living with HIV (PLWH), little is known about how PLWH experience trial closure, particularly in low-income countries, where the majority of trials take place. We sought to explore the i... Read More about Moving to another world: understanding the impact of clinical trial closure on research participants living with HIV in Uganda.

A loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) assay for rapid and specific detection of airborne inoculum of Uromyces betae (sugar beet rust) (2019)
Journal Article

Sugar beet rust disease (causal agent Uromyces betae) represents a serious threat to worldwide sugar beet (Beta vulgaris) crops, causing yield losses of up to 10% in the UK. Currently, the disease is managed mainly by application of fungicides after...

Slow growth of out-of-time-order correlators and entanglement entropy in integrable disordered systems (2019)
Journal Article

We investigate how information spreads in three paradigmatic one-dimensional models with spatial disorder. The models we consider are unitarily related to a system of free fermions and, thus, are manifestly integrable. We demonstrate that out-of-time...

Least concern to endangered: Applying climate change projections profoundly influences the extinction risk assessment for wild Arabica coffee (2019)
Journal Article

Arabica coffee (Coffea arabica) is a key crop in many tropical countries and globally provides an export value of over US$13 billion per year. Wild Arabica coffee is of fundamental importance for the global coffee sector and of direct importance with...

Antigenicity and immunogenicity of differentially glycosylated HCV E2 envelope proteins expressed in mammalian and insect cells (2019)
Journal Article

Development of a prophylactic vaccine for hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a global health challenge. Cumulative evidence supports the importance of antibodies targeting the HCV E2 envelope glycoprotein to facilitate viral clearance. However, a signif...

Taming disruption?: pervasive data analytics, uncertainty and policy intervention in disruptive technology and its geographic spread (2019)
Journal Article

The topic of technology development and its disruptive effects has been the subject of much debate over the last 20 years with numerous theories at both macro and micro scales offering potential models of technology progression and disruption. This p... Read More about Taming disruption?: pervasive data analytics, uncertainty and policy intervention in disruptive technology and its geographic spread.

Exploring the value of machine learning for weighted multi-model combination of an ensemble of global hydrological models (2019)
Journal Article

This study presents a novel application of machine learning to deliver optimised, multi-model combinations (MMCs) of Global Hydrological Model (GHM) simulations. We exemplify the approach using runoff simulations from five GHMs across 40 large global...

Precautionary policing and dispositives of risk in a police force control room in domestic abuse incidents: an ethnography of call handlers, dispatchers and response officers (2019)
Journal Article

This article explores the riskwork engaged in by call handlers, dispatchers and response officers in a police force control room in England. We present a novel approach by drawing on the work of Foucault and his concept le dispositif to study riskwor...
