Non-aqueous high internal phase emulsion templates for synthesis of macroporous polymers in situ filled with cyclic carbonate electrolytes (2014)
Journal Article
In order to develop inks suitable for roll-to-roll printing processes, which can be cured into in situ electrolyte filled high porosity macroporous polymer membranes, non-aqueous high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs) were prepared. The external phase... Read More about Non-aqueous high internal phase emulsion templates for synthesis of macroporous polymers in situ filled with cyclic carbonate electrolytes.
Trimeric Cyclamers: Hierarchical High Z′ Crystal Engineering Based on Guest Structure and Basicity (2016)
Journal Article
Ureidosalicylic acid forms remarkable trimeric cyclamer-like structures with either three or six independent molecule in the asymmetric unit as a result of the excess of hydrogen bond donors and guest inclusion within the centre of the cyclamer.
A dimensionless ordered pull-through model of the mammalian lens epithelium evidences scaling across species and explains the age-dependent changes in cell density in the human lens (2015)
Journal Article
We present a mathematical (ordered pull-through; OPT) model of the cell-density profile for the mammalian lens epithelium together with new experimental data. The model is based upon dimensionless parameters, an important criterion for inter-species...

Emulsification at the liquid-liquid interfaces: effects of potential, electrolytes and surfactants (2015)
Journal Article
Emulsification of oils at liquid/liquid interfaces is of fundamental importance across a range of applications, including detergency. Adsorption and partitioning of the anionic surface active ions at the interface between two immiscible solutions is...

Evolution of Electronic Circuits using Carbon Nanotube Composites (2016)
Journal Article
Evolution-in-materio concerns the computer controlled manipulation of material systems using external stimuli to train or evolve the material to perform a useful function. In this paper we demonstrate the evolution of a disordered composite material,... Read More about Evolution of Electronic Circuits using Carbon Nanotube Composites.
Modulating the Hydration Behaviour of Calcium Chloride by Lactam Complexation (2016)
Journal Article
Complexation of calcium chloride with bis(lactam) ligand L1 allows the formation of both an unstable anhydrous complex, an aqua complex {[Ca2(μ-L1)2(H2O)9]Cl4]}n (1) and a related hydrate incorporating additional lattice water of crystallization {[Ca...

Formation of a hetero[3]rotaxane by a dynamic component-swapping strategy (2014)
Journal Article
Acid-catalysed scrambling of the mechanically interlocked components between two different homo[3]rotaxanes, constituted of dumbbells containing two secondary dialkylammonium ion recognition sites encircled by two [24]crown-8 rings, each containing a...

An artificial molecular pump (2015)
Journal Article
Carrier proteins consume fuel in order to pump ions or molecules across cell membranes, creating concentration gradients. Their control over diffusion pathways, effected entirely through noncovalent bonding interactions, has inspired chemists to devi... Read More about An artificial molecular pump.
The impact of circadian rhythms on medical imaging and radiotherapy regimes for the paediatric patient (2016)
Journal Article
Daily rhythmic changes are found in cellular events in cell cycle, DNA repair, apoptosis and angiogenesis in both normal and tumour tissue, as well as in enzymatic activity and drug metabolism. In this paper, we hypothesize that circadian rhythms nee... Read More about The impact of circadian rhythms on medical imaging and radiotherapy regimes for the paediatric patient.

Optimization of the GAFF Force Field to Describe Liquid Crystal Molecules: The Path to a Dramatic Improvement in Transition Temperature Predictions (2015)
Journal Article
The physical properties and phase transitions of thermotropic liquid crystals are highly sensitive to small changes in chemical structure. However, these changes are challenging to model, as both the phase diagram and mesophase properties obtained fr...

Free-surface film flow over topography: full three-dimensional finite element solutions (2015)
Journal Article
An efficient Bubnov-Galerkin finite element formulation is employed to solve the Navier-Stokes and continuity equations in three-dimensions for the case of surface-tension dominated film flow over substrate topography, with the free-surface location...

Influence of constitution and charge on radical pairing interactions in tris-radical tricationic complexes (2016)
Journal Article
The results of a systematic investigation of trisradical tricationic complexes formed between cyclobis(paraquat-p-phenylene) bisradical dicationic (CBPQT2(•+)) rings and a series of 18 dumbbells, containing centrally located 4,4′-bipyridinium radical...

Structural characterization suggests models for monomeric and dimeric forms of full-length ezrin (2016)
Journal Article
Ezrin is a member of the ERM (ezrin–radixin–moesin) family of proteins that have been conserved through metazoan evolution. These proteins have dormant and active forms, where the latter links the actin cytoskeleton to membranes. ERM proteins have th...

Network of Minima of the Thomson Problem and Smale's 7th Problem (2016)
Journal Article
The Thomson problem, arrangement of identical charges on the surface of a sphere, has found many applications in physics, chemistry and biology. Here, we show that the energy landscape of the Thomson problem for N particles with N=132, 135, 138, 141,... Read More about Network of Minima of the Thomson Problem and Smale's 7th Problem.
Selective gelation of N-(4-pyridyl)nicotinamide by copper(II) salts (2015)
