Heat shock proteins are differentially expressed in brain and spinal cord: implications for multiple sclerosis (2018)
Journal Article

Aims: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurodegenerative disease characterised by demyelination, inflammation and neurodegeneration throughout the central nervous system. Although spinal cord pathology is an important factor contributing to disea...

Modeling, analysis, and improvement of integrated productivity and energy consumption in a serial manufacturing system (2018)
Journal Article

The performance of a manufacturing system is measured by factors such as its productivity and energy efficiency. Current systems lack the required indices to measure its efficiency and highlight the areas of inefficiency in the system. The paper is a...

The permeability evolution of tuffisites and implications for outgassing through dense rhyolitic magma (2019)
Journal Article

There is growing evidence that outgassing through transient fracture networks exerts an important control on conduit processes and explosive‐effusive activity during silicic eruptions. Indeed, the first modern observations of rhyolitic eruptions have... Read More about The permeability evolution of tuffisites and implications for outgassing through dense rhyolitic magma.

Direct Prediction of EPR Spectra from Lipid Bilayers: Understanding Structure and Dynamics in Biological Membranes (2018)
Journal Article

Of the many biophysical techniques now being brought to bear on studies of membranes, electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of nitroxide spin probes was the first to provide information about both mobility and ordering in lipid membranes. Here, we re... Read More about Direct Prediction of EPR Spectra from Lipid Bilayers: Understanding Structure and Dynamics in Biological Membranes.

Directed Remote Lateral Metalation: Highly Substituted 2-Naphthols and BINOLs by in situ Directing Group Generation (2018)
Journal Article

A general synthesis of highly substituted 2‐naphthols based on a new carbanionic reaction sequence is demonstrated. The reaction exploits the dual nature of lithium bases consisting of consecutive ring opening of readily available coumarins with LiNE...

Emergent chirality in achiral liquid crystals: insights from molecular simulation models of the behaviour of bent-core mesogens (2018)
Journal Article

We report insights into the behaviour of achiral bent-core liquid crystals using (a) atomistic models of the PnOPIMB series of mesogens and (b) simple coarse-grained models that demonstrate the spontaneous transfer of chirality between molecules by p...

Non-invasive in vivo quantification of the developing optical properties and graded index of the embryonic eye lens using SPIM (2018)
Journal Article

Graded refractive index lenses are inherent to advanced visual systems in animals. By understanding their formation and local optical properties, significant potential for improved ocular healthcare may be realized. We report a novel technique measur...
