A Study into Building Surveying Practice with Regards to the Evaluation of Marine Degradation in Building Fabric (2025)
Thesis

The World is surrounded by approximately 193,000 miles of coastline (Small & Nicholls, 2003). The United Kingdom is an island located off the northwestern coast of mainland Europe. The United Kingdom comprises the whole of the island of Great Britain...

The Performance Projection Paradigm: An Exploration of a Dialogue Between the Moving Body and Projected Image, Through Improvisation (2025)
Thesis

The key contribution of my research lies in the development of a practical methodology for transdisciplinary and intermedial dance practice, which I have termed the Performance Projection Paradigm (PPP). This methodology is designed to enable a real-...

POS1156 FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH TIME TO DIAGNOSIS OF AXIAL SPONDYLOARTHRITIS IN A UK POPULATION. A CROSS-SECTIONAL OBSERVATIONAL STUDY (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background:
Axial spondyloarthritis (axSpA) diagnosis is frequently delayed, with a median time from symptom onset to diagnosis of 2-5 years. Although many studies report prolonged time in receiving a diagnosis of... Read More about POS1156 FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH TIME TO DIAGNOSIS OF AXIAL SPONDYLOARTHRITIS IN A UK POPULATION.

OP0113-HPR THE WORKWELL TRIAL: ASSESSING THE IMPACT OF JOB RETENTION VOCATIONAL REHABILITATION ON EMPLOYMENT OUTCOMES AMONG PEOPLE WITH INFLAMMATORY ARTHRITIS (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Background:
People with inflammatory arthritis (IA) experience high levels of work instability, absenteeism (i.e., sick leave), and presenteeism (i.e. reduced work productivity), which can lead to premature job lo...

GAN-enhanced deep learning for improved Alzheimer's disease classification and longitudinal brain change analysis (2025)
Journal Article

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is commonly defined by a progressive decline in cognitive functions and memory. Early detection is crucial to mitigate the devastating impacts of AD, which can significantly impair a person's quality of life. Traditional meth...

Reliability and validity of lower extremity and trunk kinematics measured with markerless motion capture during sports-related and functional tasks: A systematic review (2025)
Journal Article

This study reviewed the literature regarding reliability and validity of markerless motion capture (MMC) for measuring lower extremities and trunk kinematics during sports-related and functional tasks. Articles published until 28 February 2024 were a...

Is aphantasia a neurodevelopmental condition? Evidence from face recognition and developmental prosopagnosia (2025)
Preprint / Working Paper

Developmental aphantasia is characterised by an absence of visual mental imagery, with many
researchers concluding that it is not a disorder. However, impairments in facial identity
processing and elevated cooccurrence with developmental prosopagno... Read More about Is aphantasia a neurodevelopmental condition? Evidence from face recognition and developmental prosopagnosia.

Exploring transtibial prosthetic coupling (Part 2): Utilising knee axis estimation to investigate population trends between prosthesis characteristics and coupling movements. (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

BACKGROUND
Prosthetic coupling, primarily pistoning, has been widely used to measure prosthetic fit quality. In lower-limb prosthetics, socket comfort and ambulatory function are key priorities for user satisfaction. However, the true influence of...

Exploring transtibial prosthetic coupling (Part 1): Utilising adjustable sockets to influence prosthetic interface stiffness when comparing knee axis estimation methods. (2025)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

BACKGROUND
Motion capture (MoCap) is widely used to study human ambulation. While optimisation to estimate the knee axis from MoCap markers has been explored in healthy populations [1-3], its effectiveness in transtibial prosthesis users remains unc...
