Design and simulation of a high-gain organic operational amplifier for use in quantification of cholesterol in low-cost point-of-care devices (2017)
Journal Article

© The Institution of Engineering and Technology. This paper presents circuit design and simulations of a high gain organic Op-Amp, for use in quantification of real cholesterol, in the range of 1-9 mM. A 7-stage inverter chain is added onto the desig...

Alterations in endocytic protein expression with increasing age in the transgenic APP695 V717I London mouse model of amyloid pathology: Implications for Alzheimer's disease (2017)
Journal Article

Copyright © 2017 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved. A major risk factor for the development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is increasing age, but the reason behind this association has not been identified. It is thought that the changes in...

The impact of ageing reveals distinct roles for human dentate gyrus and CA3 in pattern separation and object recognition memory (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 The Author(s). Both recognition of familiar objects and pattern separation, a process that orthogonalises overlapping events, are critical for effective memory. Evidence is emerging that human pattern separation requires dentate gyrus. Dentate...

Ecobat: An online resource to facilitate transparent, evidence-based interpretation of bat activity data (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 The Authors. Ecology and Evolution published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd. Acoustic surveys of bats are one of the techniques most commonly used by ecological practitioners. The results are used in Ecological Impact Assessments to assess the lik... Read More about Ecobat: An online resource to facilitate transparent, evidence-based interpretation of bat activity data.

Next generation sequencing elucidates cacao badnavirus diversity and reveals the existence of more than ten viral species (2017)
Journal Article

© 2017 Elsevier B.V. Cacao swollen shoot virus is a member of the family Caulimoviridae, genus Badnavirus and is naturally transmitted to Theobroma cacao (L.) by several mealybug species. CSSV populations in West African countries are highly variable...

Genotoxicity and functionality assessment of a bone marrow stromal cell line following chemotherapy exposure in an in vitro model of multiple myeloma (2017)
Thesis

Multiple myeloma (MM) is a haematological malignancy characterized by terminally differentiated plasma cells and their accumulation in the bone marrow (BM). Despite significant advances in therapeutic strategies it currently remains incurable. The in...
