Student staff relationships in a climate of insecurity: New bargains and new boundaries (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Frost, L. (2013, November). Student staff relationships in a climate of insecurity: New bargains and new boundaries

This paper is arguing that some fundamental needs of student staff relationships in the university have remained consistent but the capacity for them to be met within higher education has changed, as society, and the university as one instantiation o...

The psychological impact of looking different (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Rumsey, N. (2013, September). The psychological impact of looking different. Paper presented at 41st Annual Meeting of the International Society of Pediatric Neurosurgery (ISPN), Mainz, Germany

Research report appraisal: How much understanding is enough? (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Lipscomb, M. (2013, September). Research report appraisal: How much understanding is enough?. Paper presented at Genes, Neurons, and Nurses: Implications of 21st Century Science for Nursing Care at 17th Annual International Philosophy of Nursing Conference in association with the International Philosophy of Nursing Society, Emory University - Nell Hodgson Woodruff School of Nursing, Atlanta, USA

When appraising research papers, how much understanding is enough? More specifically, in deciding whether the results of research can be used to inform practice, do appraisers need to substantively understand how findings are derived or is it suffici...

Showing public value: Factors supporting researchers’ attitudes to open science (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Grand, A. (2013, July). Showing public value: Factors supporting researchers’ attitudes to open science. Presented at Science in Public 2013, Nottingham

Funders – notably in the UK, EU and USA – are increasingly pressing researchers to make research outputs openly available. While an open access policy may be a driver, my research suggests that many publicly-funded researchers acknowledge that public...

A novel approach to cognitive engineering: Manipulating access cost (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Morgan, P., Smy, V., Seeby, H., & Patrick, J. (2013, July). A novel approach to cognitive engineering: Manipulating access cost. Poster presented at The 15th International Conference on Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Las Vegas, USA

The traditional approach to cognitive engineering involves reducing workload by providing operators with immediately accessible relevant information. We suggest that such immediate access may not always improve human performance. Somewhat counter-int... Read More about A novel approach to cognitive engineering: Manipulating access cost.

The psychology of facial disfigurement (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Rumsey, N. (2013, June). The psychology of facial disfigurement. Presented at British Oculoplastic Surgery Society (BOPSS) 2013, Bristol

Low light optical detection of whole-cell bioluminescent bacterial bioreporters for visualisation of surface decontamination using nonthermal plasma (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Robinson, G. M., Thorn, R., Hancock, C., & Reynolds, D. M. (2013, May). Low light optical detection of whole-cell bioluminescent bacterial bioreporters for visualisation of surface decontamination using nonthermal plasma. Paper presented at 3rd International Conference on Bio-Sensing Technology, Sitges, Spain

Introduction: Maintenance of a clean, uncontaminated healthcare environment is instrumental in the delivery of modern healthcare. Nonthermal plasma is a technology with potential applications for sterilisation and disinfection in biological and medi...

Design of a hybrid robot control system using memristor-model and ant-inspired based information transfer protocols (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Gale, E., de Lacy Costello, B., & Adamatzky, A. (2013, May). Design of a hybrid robot control system using memristor-model and ant-inspired based information transfer protocols. Paper presented at Workshop on Unconventional Approaches to Robotics, Automation and Control Inspired by Nature, Karlsruhe

It is not always possible for a robot to process all the information from its sensors in a timely manner and thus quick and yet valid approximations of the robot's situation are needed. Here we design hybrid control for a robot within this limit usin...

Societal challenges facing people with facial differences (2013)
Presentation / Conference

Detection of intracellular ara-C/ara-CTP following treatment with the new anti-leukemic drug elacytarabine using a bioluminescent bacterial biosensor (2013)
Presentation / Conference
Robinson, G. M., Anderson, E., Salisbury, V., Mehta, P., Sandvold, M., & Reynolds, D. M. (2013, April). Detection of intracellular ara-C/ara-CTP following treatment with the new anti-leukemic drug elacytarabine using a bioluminescent bacterial biosensor. Poster presented at American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting, Washington D.C., USA

Cytarabine (ara-C) is an analogue of deoxycytidine with an established role in treating AML. Cytarabine depends on the human equilibrative nucleoside transporter-1 (hENT-1) for cellular entry (1). Loss of hENT-1 function in vitro has been shown to re...
