Catching even more offenders with EvoFIT facial composites (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Frowd, C. D., Pitchford, M., Petkovic, A., Skelton, F. C., Prosser, C., & Coates, B. (2012, September). Catching even more offenders with EvoFIT facial composites. Presented at 2012 Third International Conference on Emerging Security Technologies, Lisbon,

Facial composites are an investigative tool used by police to identify suspects of crime. Unfortunately, traditional methods to construct the face have rather low success rates. We have been developing a new recognition-based method called EvoFIT tha... Read More about Catching even more offenders with EvoFIT facial composites.

Investigating the specificity of experimentally induced expectations in motion perception (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Gekas, N., Seitz, A., & Seriès, P. (2012). Investigating the specificity of experimentally induced expectations in motion perception. Journal of Vision, 12(9), 1137. https://doi.org/10.1167/12.9.1137

Our perceptions are fundamentally altered by our expectations, a.k.a. "priors" about the world. In previous statistical learning experiments (Chalk et al, 2010), we investigated how such priors are formed by presenting subjects with low contrast movi...

P1‐274: Ageing increases vulnerability to Aβ42 toxicity in drosophila (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kerr, F., Rogers, I., Martinez, P., Hardy, J., Lovestone, S., & Partridge, L. (2012, July). P1‐274: Ageing increases vulnerability to Aβ42 toxicity in drosophila. Presented at Alzheimer 's Association International Conference 2012, Vancouver, British C

Background Ageing is the major risk factor for the development of many neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease (AD). One of the major unresolved questions in the AD field asks why neurodegeneration occurs late in life. This associa...

Preliminary Analysis of Pacing Strategies in Professional Basketball (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kavaliauskas, M. (2012, July). Preliminary Analysis of Pacing Strategies in Professional Basketball. Poster presented at 17th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science

Introduction: Pacing is the distribution of muscular work rate during exercise (Foster et al., 2004). Although pacing has been studied extensively in individual endurance sports, little research has investigated the distribution of work rates within...

Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model for the Assessment of Nanomaterial Toxicity (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Nicol, L., Malone, E., & Proudfoot, L. (2012, April). Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model for the Assessment of Nanomaterial Toxicity. Poster presented at British Society for Parasitology Conference, 50th Anniversary, Glasgow

Nanomaterials, having at least one dimension less than 100nm, have unique physico-chemical properties due to their small size, large surface area and surface reactivity. Manufactured nanomaterials have enormous potential in industrial, pharmaceutical... Read More about Caenorhabditis elegans as a Model for the Assessment of Nanomaterial Toxicity.

Nanoparticles and Neutrophil Activation (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Dickson, C., Prach, M., Fraser, J., Ingram, L., Barlow, P., Hutchison, G., …Malone, E. (2012, February). Nanoparticles and Neutrophil Activation. Presented at NanoImpactNet-QNANO conference - European Network on the Health and Environmental Impact of Na

Neutrophils, the rapid responders of the innate immune system, are central to the initial immune responses of a host to foreign particles. Circulating in the blood, they are the predominant leukocyte (40-75%), and are positioned to rapidly migrate to... Read More about Nanoparticles and Neutrophil Activation.
