Journal Article
Vivian, A., Taylor, J. D., Arnold, D. L., Arnold, D. L., Athey-Pollard, A., Gibbon, M. J., …Vivian, A. (1996). Specific oligonucleotide primers for the identification of Pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi yield one of two possible DNA fragments by PCR amplification: evidence for phylogenetic divergence. Physiological and Molecular Plant Pathology, 49(4), 233-245. https://doi.org/10.1006/pmpp.1996.0051

Two unique DNA fragments, generated by RAPD-PCR, were used as probes against dot-blots of representative isolates of the seven races of pseudomonas syringae pv. pisi. DNA from each isolate hybridized only to one of the two probes. Fragments identifie...

In this paper we introduce two macro-level operators to enhance the use of population-based evolutionary computing techniques in multiagent environments: speciation and symbiogenesis. We describe their us... Read More about Evolutionary computing in multi-agent environments: Speciation and symbiogenesis.

Stories and metaphors: Talking about the past in a psychotherapy group for people with dementia (1996)
Journal Article
Cheston, R. (1996). Stories and metaphors: Talking about the past in a psychotherapy group for people with dementia. Ageing and Society, 16(5), 579-602

Social constructionist approaches to the talk of older adults diagnosed as suffering from a dementing illness have emphasised the importance of analysing such talk in terms of its social function. Drawing on this work together with the increasing cli... Read More about Stories and metaphors: Talking about the past in a psychotherapy group for people with dementia.
