A Study Into The Insulative Effects Of Snow On Flat Roofs Under Extreme Conditions (2024)
Presentation / Conference
Henshaw, G., Fitton, R., & Dgali, M. (2024, August). A Study Into The Insulative Effects Of Snow On Flat Roofs Under Extreme Conditions. Poster presented at 11th SCAR Open Science Conference 2024, Pucón, Chile

Research centres in extreme conditions should be well insulated, provide good levels of thermal comfort and should have a limited effect on the natural environment.  Generally, these metrics are modelled and are taken as fact.  However, research over...

Density Gradient Centrifugation is an Effective Tool to Isolate Cancer Stem-Like Cells from Hypoxic and Normoxia Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Models (2024)
Journal Article

Accumulating evidence has indicated that stemness-related genes are associated with the aggressiveness of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). Because no universal markers for breast CSCs are available, we applied the density gradient centrifugation...
