Potential of Bioenergy in Rural Ghana (2021)
Journal Article
Nelson, N., Darkwa, J., Calautit, J., Worall, M., Mokaya, R., Adjei, E., …Ahiekpor, J. (2021). Potential of Bioenergy in Rural Ghana. Sustainability, 13(1), Article 381. https://doi.org/10.3390/su13010381

Crop residues are common in rural Ghana due to the predominant role agriculture plays in livelihood activities in these communities. In this paper we investigate the prospects of exploiting agricultural crop residues for rural development in Ghana th... Read More about Potential of Bioenergy in Rural Ghana.

AhaP, A Quorum Quenching Acylase from Psychrobacter sp. M9-54-1 That Attenuates Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Vibrio coralliilyticus Virulence (2021)
Journal Article
Reina, J. C., Romero, M., Salto, R., Cámara, M., & Llamas, I. (2021). AhaP, A Quorum Quenching Acylase from Psychrobacter sp. M9-54-1 That Attenuates Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Vibrio coralliilyticus Virulence. Marine Drugs, 19(1), Article 16. https://doi.org/10.3390/md19010016

Although Psychrobacter strain M9-54-1 had been previously isolated from the microbiota of holothurians and shown to degrade quorum sensing (QS) signal molecules C6 and C10-homoserine lactone (HSL), little was known about the gene responsible for this...

Comparison of simple averaging and latent class modeling to estimate the area of land cover in the presence of reference data variability (2021)
Journal Article
Xing, D., Stehman, S. V., Foody, G. M., & Pengra, B. W. (2021). Comparison of simple averaging and latent class modeling to estimate the area of land cover in the presence of reference data variability. Land, 10(1), Article 35. https://doi.org/10.3390/land10010035

© 2021 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. Estimates of the area or percent area of the land cover classes within a study region are often based on the reference land cover class labels assigned by analysts interpreting satellite image...

Why is school-to-school collaboration important and how can we make it work? (2021)
Book Chapter
Greany, T. (2021). Why is school-to-school collaboration important and how can we make it work?. In Connecting Classrooms: Unlocking a world of potential - Leading the way (25-32). London: British Council

Networks, collaborations and partnerships between schools can take multiple forms and achieve multiple objectives. This can make them hard to make sense of – and even harder to lead and manage. Nevertheless, this chapter argues that policy makers sho... Read More about Why is school-to-school collaboration important and how can we make it work?.

The evidence for cognitive behavioural therapy in any condition, population or context: a meta-review of systematic reviews and panoramic meta-analysis (2021)
Journal Article
Fordham, B., Sugavanam, T., Edwards, K., Stallard, P., Howard, R., Das Nair, R., …Lamb, S. E. (2021).

Reinforcement Learning approaches to hippocampus-dependent flexible spatial navigation (2021)
Journal Article
Bast, T., Coombes, S., O’Dea, R., & Tessereau, C. (2021). Reinforcement Learning approaches to hippocampus-dependent flexible spatial navigation. Brain and Neuroscience Advances, 5, https://doi.org/10.1177/2398212820975634

Humans and non-human animals show great flexibility in spatial navigation, including the ability to return to specific locations based on as few as one single experience. To study spatial navigation in the laboratory, watermaze tasks, in which rats h... Read More about Reinforcement Learning approaches to hippocampus-dependent flexible spatial navigation.

Machining-induced thermal damage in cortical bone: Necrosis and micro-mechanical integrity (2021)
Journal Article
Robles-Linares, J. A., Axinte, D., Liao, Z., & Gameros, A. (2021). Machining-induced thermal damage in cortical bone: Necrosis and micro-mechanical integrity. Materials and Design, 197, Article 109215. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.matdes.2020.109215

In bone cutting, the tissue is exposed to necrosis due to temperature elevation, which can significantly influence postoperative results in orthopaedic surgeries. This damage is usually revealed through histological analysis to show the necrotic exte... Read More about Machining-induced thermal damage in cortical bone: Necrosis and micro-mechanical integrity.
