La2O2MQ2 phases: stability and synthetic challenges (2024)
Journal Article
Hebberd, G. R., Mendis, B., Bowen, L., Clark, S. J., & Mccabe, E. E. (in press). La2O2MQ2 phases: stability and synthetic challenges. Solid State Sciences,

Oxychalcogenides containing transition metal or p block cations have potential for thermoelectric, photocatalytic and magnetic applications but the synthetic pathways to these quaternary phases are not fully understood. This presents a challenge to t... Read More about La2O2MQ2 phases: stability and synthetic challenges.

Investigation into the significant role of dermal-epidermal interactions in skin ageing utilising a bioengineered skin construct (2024)
Journal Article
Costello, L., Goncalves, K., De Los Santos Gomez, P., Hulette, B., Dicolandrea, T., Flagler, M. J., Isfort, R., Oblong, J., Bascom, C., & Przyborski, S. (in press). Investigation into the significant role of dermal-epidermal interactions in skin ageing utilising a bioengineered skin construct. Journal of Cellular Physiology,

In order to fulfil ambitions for net-zero carbon dioxide equivalent... Read More about Roadmap on established and emerging photovoltaics for sustainable energy conversion.

Sports Cages as Social Infrastructure: Sociality, Context, and Contest in Hackney's Cages (2024)
Journal Article
Billingham, L., Curry, F., & Crossley, S. (online). Sports Cages as Social Infrastructure: Sociality, Context, and Contest in Hackney's Cages. Antipode: A Radical Journal of Geography, https://doi.org/10.1111/anti.13090

The concept of social infrastructure has experienced a rapid rise to prominence in recent years, both in academia and in policy. In this article, we explore a case study of cages (also known as Multi‐Use Games Areas) in Hackney, North‐East London. We...
