Exploring the association between growth mindsets and climate action with young people (2024)
Journal Article
Decades of research has demonstrated the power of growth mindsets (i.e. belief in the malleability of the qualities of humans) to shape people’s ways of making sense of their socio-cultural reality and influence their ways of thinking about and actin...

On recombination (2024)
Journal Article
The predominant explanations for the inclusion of chromosomal recombination during meiosis are either that it serves as a mechanism for repair or for increased adaptability. However, neither gives a clear immediate selective advantage to the reproduc... Read More about On recombination.
Beauty, media representations and body image (2024)

This chapter explores the impacts that sociocultural beauty ideals in media have on body image and societal attitudes towards appearance. The chapter begins by outlining how appearance is portrayed in traditional and social media, specifically focusi... Read More about Beauty, media representations and body image.
Mapping the path to a decarbonised agri‐food products: A hybrid geographic information system and life cycle inventory methodology for assessing sustainable agriculture (2024)
Journal Article
The development of a decarbonised food industry will depend on a sustainable agricultural system where embodied food product greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) can be associated with agricultural production. The method presented demonstrates how mapping...

This paper describes the design and development of a novel electrochemical biosensor for measuring glycerol in wine. Our initial detailed studies were aimed at deducing the optimum conditions for biosensor operation by conducting hydrodynamic voltamm...
