SegCrop: Segmentation-based dynamic cropping of endoscopic videos to address label leakage in surgical tool detection (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In recent times, surgical data science has emerged as an important research discipline in interventional healthcare. There are many potential applications for analysing endoscopic surgical videos using machine learning (ML) techniques such as surgica...

Smartphone-based colorimetric determination of gamma-butyrolactone and gamma hydroxybutyrate in alcoholic beverage samples (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

amma-hydroxybutyrate (GBH) is a popular recreational drug. Its strong sedative and amnesic effects have led to drug-facilitated sexual assaults, poisonings, overdose, and death. As a result, legislation has restricted its availability leading to GHB,...

Voices in a Pandemic (VIP-CLEAR): Using deep mapping to explore children’s changing perceptions and experiences during COVID-19 ‘recovery’ (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Children are unheard voices within the COVID-19 pandemic. We are unaware how intersections of complex factors in specific social settings have impacted their perceptions and are determining what ‘recovery’ means. ‘Voices in a Pandemic: Children’s Loc...

A literature survey of volatiles from human breath and bodily fluids: The human volatilome and its potential use in forensic science (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The measurement of volatile compounds, or indeed semi-volatile compounds from a crime scene, or from a person could have applications in forensics science, these volatiles could arise from the body or by being adorned e.g. by use of perfumes etc. Rec...

Application of head space gas chromatography mass spectrometry (HS-GCMS) to determine fragrances transferred between fabrics with varying force of contact (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In recent years, offenders have become more forensically aware; leading to the need for the development of new and novel evidence types. One such potential evidence type that we believe deserves further investigation is that of fragrance transfer. Lo...

Human identification: An investigation of 3D models of paranasal sinuses to establish a biological profile on a modern UK population (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Forensic anthropology aims to assist law enforcement with human identification by physically examining skeletal remains and assigning a biological profile using various metric and visual methods. These methods are crucial when a body undergoes extrem...

Managing potential pathogens in stored rainwater using small-scale in-situ electrochemical activation (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Rainwater can be a lifeline for many people who do not have piped water supplies, experience dry seasons, or live-in fresh water scarce areas. The quality of stored rainwater can deteriorate over time, due to increasing concentrations of contaminants...

Exploration of shrimp shell chitin as an agricultural biostimulant and its effects on soil microbial respiration (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Chitin (poly-(1→4)-β-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine) is a novel bio-stimulant derived from an inert by-product from sustainable fish production. This study observed the effect of chitin derived from shrimp shells on agricultural soil microorganism metabolism...

Bath Conference 2022 Poster (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

In this present investigation we show for the first time the possibility of utilising fully 3-D printed carbon nanofiber–graphite–polystyrene electrodes (figure 1) for the trace determination of Zn2+ by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry... Read More about Bath Conference 2022 Poster.
