Understanding the impact of children's and young people's self-harm on parental well-being: a systematic literature review of qualitative and quantitative findings (2024)
Journal Article
Martin, F., Ferrey, A., Hobbs, L., Lascelles, K., van Even, S., & Oliver, T. (in press). Understanding the impact of children's and young people's self-harm on parental well-being: a systematic literature review of qualitative and quantitative findings. Child and Adolescent Mental Health, https://doi.org/10.1111/camh.12692

Background: Self-harm in children and young people is increasing. Parents are vital in supporting young people; however, parents may experience distress linked to the self-harm. Previous reviews have highlighted the emotional impact and need for info...

Adsorption in action: Molecular dynamics as a tool to study adsorption at the surface of fine plastic particles in aquatic environments (2024)
Journal Article
Townsend, P. A. (2024). Adsorption in action: Molecular dynamics as a tool to study adsorption at the surface of fine plastic particles in aquatic environments. ACS Omega, 9(5), 5142-5156. https://doi.org/10.1021/acsomega.3c07488

The presence of microscopic fine plastic particles (FPPs) in aquatic environments continues to be a societal issue of great concern. Further, the adsorption of pollutants and other macromolecules onto the surface of FPPs is a well-known phenomenon. T...
