Journal Article
Raja, S., Parvaiz, A., Sanders, L., Judelsohn, A., Guru, S., Bhan, M., …Frimpong Boamah, E. (in press). Planning and Food Sovereignty in Conflict Cities: Insights From Urban Growers in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir. Journal of the American Planning Association, 1-13. https://doi.org/10.1080/01944363.2022.2072370

Protracted political conflicts disrupt people's lives, including their ability to feed themselves. Urban planning, operating within the ambit of the state, impacts food systems in conflict cities. We examine the confluence of planning and political m... Read More about Planning and Food Sovereignty in Conflict Cities: Insights From Urban Growers in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir.

Tuberculosis has severe impacts in both humans and animals. Understanding the genetic basis of survival of both Mycobacterium tuberculosis, the human adapted species, and Mycobacterium bovis, the animal adapted species is crucial to deciphering the b...

Bats actively modulate membrane compliance to control camber and reduce drag (2022)
Journal Article
Cheney, J., Rehm, J., Swartz, S., & Breuer, K. (in press). Bats actively modulate membrane compliance to control camber and reduce drag. Journal of Experimental Biology, https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.243974

Bat wing skin is exceptionally compliant and cambers significantly during flight. Plagiopatagiales proprii, arrays of small muscles embedded in the armwing membrane, are activated during flight and are hypothesized to modulate membrane tension. We ex...

Cellular electron tomography of the apical complex in the apicomplexan parasite Eimeria tenella shows a highly organised gateway for regulated secretion. (2022)
Journal Article
Burrell, A., Marugan-Hernandez, V., Moreira-Leite, F., Ferguson, D. J. P., Tomley, F. M., & Vaughan, S. (2022). Cellular electron tomography of the apical complex in the apicomplexan parasite Eimeria tenella shows a highly organised gateway for regulated secretion. Cell, https://doi.org/10.1101/2021.06.17.448283

The apical complex of apicomplexan parasites is essential for host cell invasion and intracellular survival and as the site of regulated exocytosis from specialised secretory organelles called rhoptries and micronemes. Despite its importance, there i...

Nitric oxide synthase inhibition reveals differences in the nitric oxide pathway in previously laminitic ponies. (2022)
Journal Article
Finding, E., Elliott, J., Harris, P., & Menzies-Gow, N. (2022). Nitric oxide synthase inhibition reveals differences in the nitric oxide pathway in previously laminitic ponies. Research in Veterinary Science, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rvsc.2022.05.012

Previously laminitic (PL) ponies are reported to have higher blood pressure than non laminitic (NL) ponies. This relative hypertension may be related to endothelial cell dysfunction, similar to humans with metabolic syndrome. To investigate the relat...

Ironing out the wrinkles and folds in the epidemiology of skin fold dermatitis in dog breeds in the UK (2022)
Journal Article
O'Neill, D., Rowe, D., Brodbelt, D., Pegram, C., & Hendricks, A. (2022). Ironing out the wrinkles and folds in the epidemiology of skin fold dermatitis in dog breeds in the UK. Scientific Reports, 12(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-022-14483-5

Skin fold dermatitis (intertrigo) is an inflammatory process of closely apposing skin surfaces. Extreme conformations towards folded skin in many dog breeds are linked with higher risk. Using anonymised primary-care veterinary data from the VetCompas... Read More about Ironing out the wrinkles and folds in the epidemiology of skin fold dermatitis in dog breeds in the UK.
