Journal Article
Wright, D. S., Yong, L., Pierotti, M. E., & McKinnon, J. S. (2016). Male red throat coloration, pelvic spine coloration, and courtship behaviours in threespine stickleback. Evolutionary Ecology Research, 17, 407–418

Background: In addition to exhibiting red nuptial throat coloration, male threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus) often possess red coloration on their pelvic spines. Although variation in throat colour has been shown to be associated with... Read More about Male red throat coloration, pelvic spine coloration, and courtship behaviours in threespine stickleback.

Cost-Sensitive learning has become an increasingly important area that recognizes that real world classification problems need to take the costs of misclassification and accuracy into account. Much work has been done on cost-sensitive decision tree l... Read More about Learning cost-sensitive Bayesian networks via direct and indirect methods.

Targeting cancer stem cell propagation with palbociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor: Telomerase drives tumor cell heterogeneity (2016)
Journal Article
Bonuccelli, G., Peires-Pages, M., Ozsvari, B., Martinez- Outschoorn, U., Sotgia, F., & Lisanti, M. (2017). Targeting cancer stem cell propagation with palbociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor: Telomerase drives tumor cell heterogeneity. Oncotarget, 8(6), 9868-9884. https://doi.org/10.18632/oncotarget.14196

In this report, we systematically examined the role of telomerase activity in lung and ovarian cancer stem cell (CSC) propagation. For this purpose, we indirectly gauged telomerase activity, by linking the hTERT-promoter to eGFP. Using lung (A549)...

Reducing space heating energy demand supports the UK’s legislated carbon emission reduction targets and requires the effective characterisation of the UK’s existing housing stock to facilitate retrofitting decision-making. Approximately 6.6 million U... Read More about Heat-flow variability of suspended timber ground floors: Implications for in-situ heat-flux measuring.

Human commercial models’ eye colour shows negative frequency-dependent selection (2016)
Journal Article
frequency-dependent selection. PLoS ONE, 11(12), e0168458. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0168458

In this study we investigated the eye colour of human commercial models registered in the UK (400 female and 400 male) and Brazil (400 female and 400 male) to test the hypothesis that model eye colour frequency was the result of negative frequency de...
