Crossover between liquid-like and gas-like behaviour in CH4 at 400 K (2017)
Journal Article

We report experimental evidence for a crossover between a liquid-like state and a gas-like state in fluid methane (CH4). This crossover is observed in all of our experiments, up to 397 K temperature; 2.1 times the critical temperature of methane. The...

Arabic machine transliteration using an attention-based encoder-decoder model (2017)
Journal Article

Transliteration is the process of converting words from a given source language alphabet to a target language alphabet, in a way
that best preserves the phonetic and orthographic aspects of the transliterated words. Even though an important effort h... Read More about Arabic machine transliteration using an attention-based encoder-decoder model.

Metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiome of the common black slug Arion ater in search of novel lignocellulose degrading enzymes (2017)
Journal Article
Joynson, R., Pritchard, L., Ekenakema, O., & Ferry, N. (2017). Metagenomic analysis of the gut microbiome of the common black slug Arion ater in search of novel lignocellulose degrading enzymes. Frontiers in Microbiology, 8, 2181. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmicb.2017.02181

Some eukaryotes are able to gain access to well-protected carbon sources in plant biomass by exploiting microorganisms in the environment or harbored in their digestive system. One is the land pulmonate Arion ater, which takes advantage of a gut micr...

Learning static spectral weightings for speech intelligibility enhancement in noise (2017)
Journal Article
Tang, Y., & Cooke, M. (2018). Learning static spectral weightings for speech intelligibility enhancement in noise. Computer Speech and Language, 49, 1-16. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.csl.2017.10.003

Near-end speech enhancement works by modifying speech prior to presentation in a noisy environment, typically operating under a constraint of limited or no increase in speech level. One issue is the extent to which near-end enhancement techniques req... Read More about Learning static spectral weightings for speech intelligibility enhancement in noise.

Complete mitochondrial DNA sequence of the tropical hornet Vespa affinis (Insecta, Hymenoptera) (2017)
Journal Article

We analyzed the complete mitochondrial genome of the Asian tropical hornet Vespa affinis from Ishigaki Island, Japan. It consisted of a circular molecule with 19,109 bp, which is larger to other hornet species e.g. V. velutina. We predicted the genom...

Active migration is associated with specific and consistent changes to gut microbiota in Calidris shorebirds (2017)
Journal Article
Risely, A., Waite, D. W., Ujvari, B., Hoye, B. J., & Klaassen, M. (2018). Active migration is associated with specific and consistent changes to gut microbiota in Calidris shorebirds. Journal of Animal Ecology, 87(2), 428-437. https://doi.org/10.1111/1365-2656.12784

Gut microbes are increasingly recognised for their role in regulating an animal's metabolism and immunity. However, identifying repeatable associations between host physiological processes and their gut microbiota has proved challenging, in part beca...

Corticosteroid treatment is associated with increased filamentous fungal burden in allergic fungal disease (2017)
Journal Article
allergic fungal disease. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology, 142(2), 407-414. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jaci.2017.09.039

Background
Allergic diseases caused by fungi are common. The best understood conditions are allergic
bronchopulmonaryaspergillosis (ABPA) and severe asthma with fungal sensitisation (SAFS).
Our knowledge of the fungal microbiome (mycobiome) is li... Read More about Corticosteroid treatment is associated with increased filamentous fungal burden in allergic fungal disease.

Insight into glucocorticoid receptor signalling through interactome model analysis (2017)
Journal Article
Bakker, E., Tian, K., Mutti, L., Demonacos, C., Schwartz, J., & Krstic-Demonacos, M. (2017). Insight into glucocorticoid receptor signalling through interactome model analysis. PLoS Computational Biology, 13(11), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pcbi.1005825

Glucocorticoid hormones (GCs) are used to treat a variety of diseases because of their potent anti-inflammatory effect and their ability to induce apoptosis in lymphoid malignancies through the glucocorticoid receptor (GR). Despite ongoing research,... Read More about Insight into glucocorticoid receptor signalling through interactome model analysis.
