Electroencephalography reflects the activity of sub-cortical brain regions during approach-withdrawal behaviour while listening to music (2019)
Journal Article
Daly, I., Williams, D., Hwang, F., Kirke, A., Miranda, E., & Nasuto, S. (2019). Electroencephalography reflects the activity of sub-cortical brain regions during approach-withdrawal behaviour while listening to music. Scientific reports, 9(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-019-45105-2

The ability of music to evoke activity changes in the core brain structures that underlie the experience of emotion suggests that it has the potential to be used in therapies for emotion disorders. A large volume of research has identified a network...

Urban innovation districts as hotspots for innovators (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Trillo, C. (2019, June). Urban innovation districts as hotspots for innovators. Presented at Uddevalla Symposium 2019, L'Aquila

How the space- innovators nexus works in cities? Can this nexus be understood only by looking at location of enterprises and companies or is it necessary to investigate other enabling factors related to the spatial structure of cities? This paper s... Read More about Urban innovation districts as hotspots for innovators.

Power and innovation : excavating pre-1806 steam engines in the Manchester area (2019)
Journal Article
Nevell, M. (2019). Power and innovation : excavating pre-1806 steam engines in the Manchester area. International Journal for the History of Engineering and Technology, 88(2), 204-224. https://doi.org/10.1080/17581206.2019.1573949

This paper reviews the archaeological evidence for the use of stationary steam engines on colliery and textile manufacturing sites in the Manchester city region prior to 1806. It draws upon fieldwork undertaken as a result of developer-funded archaeo... Read More about Power and innovation : excavating pre-1806 steam engines in the Manchester area.

Seawater salt-trapped Pseudomonas aeruginosa survives for years and gets primed for salinity tolerance (2019)
Journal Article
Elabed, H., Gonzalez Tortuero, E., Ibacache-Quiroga, C., Bakhrouf, A., Johnston, P., Gaddour, K., …Rodríguez-Rojas, A. (2019). Seawater salt-trapped Pseudomonas aeruginosa survives for years and gets primed for salinity tolerance. BMC Microbiology, 19, 142. https://doi.org/10.1186/s12866-019-1499-2

Background In nature, microorganisms have to adapt to long-term stressful conditions often with growth limitations. However, little is known about the evolution of the adaptability of new bacteria to such environments. Pseudomonas aeruginosa, an opp...

Testing spatial aspects of auditory salience (2019)
Presentation / Conference
Podwinska, Z., Fazenda, B., & Davies, W. (2019, June). Testing spatial aspects of auditory salience. Presented at The 25th International Conference on Auditory Display (ICAD 2019), Northumbria University, UK

Auditory salience describes the extent to which sounds attract the listener’s attention. So far, there have not been any published studies testing if the location of sound relative to the listener influences its salience. In fact, not many experiment...
