Harnessing the Power of MicroRNA Cargoes in Small Extracellular Vesicles Released from Fresh-Frozen Human Brain Sections (2024)
Journal Article

Small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) are crucial mediators of cell-cell communication, transporting diverse cargoes like proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids (microRNA, mRNA, DNA). The microRNA sEV cargo has potential utility as a powerful non-invasive...

Perceptions of play : using Play-Doh to enhance the student experience in bioscience higher education (2017)
Journal Article
Lace-Costigan, G. (2017). Perceptions of play : using Play-Doh to enhance the student experience in bioscience higher education. International Journal of Game-Based Learning, 7(3), 26-37. https://doi.org/10.4018/IJGBL.2017070103

Playful and kinaesthetic learning approaches are used in numerous early years (birth to 5 years old) learning environments, however studies in HE STEM disciplines are uncommon. This study aimed to explore the use of Play-Doh in an undergraduate anato... Read More about Perceptions of play : using Play-Doh to enhance the student experience in bioscience higher education.
