The on/off history of hydrogen in medicine: Will the interest persist this time around? (2023)
Journal Article

Over 2000 publications including more than 100 human studies seem to indicate that humans have only recently benefited from or known about the medical effects of H2 within the past 15 years. However, we have unknowingly benefited from H2 since the da... Read More about The on/off history of hydrogen in medicine: Will the interest persist this time around?.

Adapting for remote delivery during COVID-19: Insights from a science engagement project (2023)
Journal Article

Science Hunters is an established outreach program using the computer game Minecraft to engage children in science.

The early history of hydrogen and other gases in respiration and biological systems: Revisiting Beddoes, Cavallo, and Davy (2023)
Journal Article

In 2007 a paper in Nature Medicine sparked a new wave of interest in the use of molecular hydrogen (H2) for medical treatments. Since then there has been a flurry of papers looking at a range of medical aspects, from neurodegenerative disease to spor...

Genomic analysis of two novel bacteriophages infecting acinetobacter beijerinckii and halotolerans species (2023)
Journal Article

Bacteriophages are the most diverse genetic entities on Earth. In this study, two novel bacteriophages, nACB1 (Podoviridae morphotype) and nACB2 (Myoviridae morphotype), which infect Acinetobacter beijerinckii and Acinetobacter halotolerans, respecti...

SPHINX-based combination therapy as a potential novel treatment strategy for acute myeloid leukaemia (2023)
Journal Article

Introduction: Dysregulated alternative splicing is a prominent feature of cancer. The inhibition and knockdown of the SR splice factor kinase SRPK1 reduces tumour growth in vivo. As a result several SPRK1 inhibitors are in development including SPHIN... Read More about SPHINX-based combination therapy as a potential novel treatment strategy for acute myeloid leukaemia.

PhD candidate? Why and how to develop a career plan (2023)
Journal Article

After several conversations with some PhD students/candidates, I was struck by one common thread – the lack of awareness or astuteness in planning or developing their own careers, and lack of confidence in seeking help.

Four principles to establish a universal virus taxonomy (2023)
Journal Article

A universal taxonomy of viruses is essential for a comprehensive view of the virus world and for communicating the complicated evolutionary relationships among viruses. However, there are major differences in the conceptualisation and approaches to v... Read More about Four principles to establish a universal virus taxonomy.

Standardised and referenced acoustic monitoring reliably estimates bat fatalities at wind turbines: Comments on ‘Limitations of acoustic monitoring at wind turbines to evaluate fatality risk of bats’ (2023)
Journal Article

Voigt et al. (2021) provide a thorough analysis of the restrictions inherent to the estimation of bat abundance from acoustic surveys, and conclude that limitations of acoustic monitoring impede the reliable evaluation of bat fatalities at wind turbi...
