Identification and structure of the nerve growth factor binding site on TrkA (2001)
Journal Article
Wilcock, G. K., Brady, R. L., Dando, J. A., Mason, G. G., Robertson, A. G., Robertson, A., …Wilcock, G. (2001). Identification and structure of the nerve growth factor binding site on TrkA. Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 282(1), 131-141. https://doi.org/10.1006/bbrc.2001.4462

Nerve growth factor (NGF) is involved in the development and maintenance of the nervous system and has been implicated as a possible therapeutic target molecule in a number of neurodegenerative diseases, especially Alzheimer’s disease. NGF binds with... Read More about Identification and structure of the nerve growth factor binding site on TrkA.

An investigation into the degree of difference in image quality between images taken on varying speed film-screen systems (2001)
Journal Article
Holmes, K., Riggs, L., Riggs, L., & Holmes, K. (2001). An investigation into the degree of difference in image quality between images taken on varying speed film-screen systems. Radiography, 7(1), 65-75. https://doi.org/10.1053/radi.2000.0300

Purpose: Film-screen speed is one of the most critical factors affecting radiation dose to the patient, with faster speed systems requiring less radiation dose than slower speed systems for equivalent examinations. However, this is not without a cost... Read More about An investigation into the degree of difference in image quality between images taken on varying speed film-screen systems.

Policy convergence: Restructuring long-term care in Australia and the UK (2001)
Journal Article
Means, R., Gibson, D., Gibson, D., & Means, R. (2001). Policy convergence: Restructuring long-term care in Australia and the UK. Policy and Politics, 29(1), 43-58. https://doi.org/10.1332/0305573012501198

Australia and the UK have historically had very different systems of long-term care for older persons and others. Recent restructuring has led to interesting convergences of those systems - in large part, we argue, because of the limited set of polic...
