The four-day working week (2024)
Book Chapter

The four-day working week is an organisational practice that involves reducing the standard full-time working week by the equivalent of one working day, usually with no reduction in pay. The policy has been tested across a number of national pilots,... Read More about The four-day working week.

Calcification and trophic responses of mesophotic reefs to carbonate chemistry variability (2024)
Journal Article
Noyes, T. J., Garley, R., & Bates, N. R. (in press). Calcification and trophic responses of mesophotic reefs to carbonate chemistry variability. Frontiers in Marine Science, 10, 1274915. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2023.1274915

Mesophotic coral ecosystems (MCEs) are extensions of adjacent shallow water coral reefs. Accessibility to these ecosystems is challenging due to their depth limits (~ 30 – 150 m) and as a result, scientific knowledge of these reef systems is limited....

Aedes aegypti gut transcriptomes respond differently to microbiome transplants from field‐caught or laboratory‐reared mosquitoes (2024)
Journal Article

The mosquito microbiome is critical for host development and plays a major role in many aspects of mosquito biology. While the microbiome is commonly dominated by a small number of genera, there is considerable variation in composition among mosquito...

The investigation into potential hazards linked with millimeter-wave (mmWave) radiation is crucial, given the widespread adoption of body-centric wireless sensor nodes operating within this frequency band. This is particularly pertinent in light of i... Read More about Unveiling the Impact: Human Exposure to Non-Ionizing Radiation in the Millimeter-Wave Band of Sixth-Generation Wireless Networks.

Prevalence of Eimeria Species, Detected by ITS1-PCR Immobilized on FTA Cards, in Future Laying Hens and Breeding Hens in Six Provinces in Northeastern Algeria (2024)
Journal Article

Purpose
Avian coccidiosis is an important and widely distributed disease that affects global agricultural economies through losses. In Algeria, there is limited epidemiological and ecological knowledge about this disease and this hinders implementat...

Understanding the Impact of Temperate Bacteriophages on Their Lysogens Through Transcriptomics. (2024)
Journal Article
Krishnamurthi, R., González-Tortuero, E., Plahe, G., Goodhead, I. B., Fothergill, J. L., James, C. E., & Allison, H. E. (in press). Understanding the Impact of Temperate Bacteriophages on Their Lysogens Through Transcriptomics. Journal of Visualized Experiments, 10.3791/64945. https://doi.org/10.3791/64945

Temperate phages are found integrated as prophages in the majority of bacterial genomes. Some prophages are cryptic and fixed in the bacterial chromosome, but others are active and can be triggered into a replicative form either spontaneously or by e...

Lives saved, lives lost, and under-reported COVID-19 deaths: Excess and non-excess mortality in relation to cause-specific mortality during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden (2024)
Journal Article

Background: The number of confirmed COVID-19 deaths differed across countries and across waves of the pandemic. Patterns also differed between groups within a country.

Objective: We combine data on excess mortality with data on cause-of-death-spe... Read More about Lives saved, lives lost, and under-reported COVID-19 deaths: Excess and non-excess mortality in relation to cause-specific mortality during the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden.
