Insights into the beaded filament of the eye lens (2007)
Journal Article
Perng, M., Zhang, Q., & Quinlan, R. (2007). Insights into the beaded filament of the eye lens. Experimental Cell Research, 313(10), 2180-8

Filensin (BFSP1) and CP49 (BFSP2) represent two members of the IF protein superfamily that are thus far exclusively expressed in the eye lens. Mutations in both proteins cause lens cataract and careful consideration of the detail of these cataract ph... Read More about Insights into the beaded filament of the eye lens.

Lens cells: More than meets the eye (2007)
Journal Article
Tholozan, F., & Quinlan, R. (2007). Lens cells: More than meets the eye. International Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 39(10), 1754-1759

Lens cells originate from the head ectoderm and differentiate into an avascular organ constituted from two contiguous cell subpopulations of very different morphology. Lens cells, together with corneal cells, are responsible for the transmission and... Read More about Lens cells: More than meets the eye.

Non-hotspot volcano chains originating from small-scale sublithospheric convection (2007)
Journal Article
Ballmer, M., van Hunen, J., Ito, G., Tackley, P., & Bianco, T. (2007). Non-hotspot volcano chains originating from small-scale sublithospheric convection. Geophysical Research Letters, 34, L23310, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007gl031636

Some oceanic volcano chains violate the predictions of the hotspot hypothesis for geographic age progressions. One mechanism invoked to explain these observations is small-scale sublithospheric convection (SSC). In this study, we explore this concept...
