Timescales of glacial isostatic adjustment in Greenland: is transient rheology required? (2024)
Journal Article
Pan, L., Mitrovica, J. X., Milne, G. A., Hoggard, M. J., & Woodroffe, S. A. (2024). Timescales of glacial isostatic adjustment in Greenland: is transient rheology required?. Geophysical Journal International, 237(2), 989-995. https://doi.org/10.1093/gji/ggae095

The possibility of a transient rheological response to ice age loading, first discussed in the literature of the 1980s, has received renewed attention. Transient behaviour across centennial to millennial timescales has been invoked to reconcile appar...

The metallicity gradients of star-forming regions store information of the assembly history of galaxies (2024)
Journal Article
Jara-Ferreira, F., Tissera, P. B., Sillero, E., Rosas-Guevara, Y., Pedrosa, S. E., De Rossi, M. E., …Bignone, L. (2024). The metallicity gradients of star-forming regions store information of the assembly history of galaxies. Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 530(2), 1369-1385. https://doi.org/10.1093/mnras/stae708

The variations in metallicity and spatial patterns within star-forming regions of galaxies result from diverse physical processes unfolding throughout their evolutionary history, with a particular emphasis on recent events. Analysing MaNGA and EAGLE... Read More about The metallicity gradients of star-forming regions store information of the assembly history of galaxies.

Diagnosis of multiple sclerosis by detecting asymmetry within the retina using a similarity-based neural network (2024)
Journal Article
Bolton, R. C., Kafieh, R., Ashtari, F., & Atapour-Abarghouei, A. (2024). Diagnosis of multiple sclerosis by detecting asymmetry within the retina using a similarity-based neural network. IEEE Access, 12, 62975-62985. https://doi.org/10.1109/access.2024.3395995

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic neurological disorder that targets the central nervous system, causing demyelination and neural disruption, which can include retinal nerve damage leading to visual disturbances. The purpose of this study is to de... Read More about Diagnosis of multiple sclerosis by detecting asymmetry within the retina using a similarity-based neural network.

‘This has given people what is needed’: progress and pitfalls for establishing child protection pathways in England that address significant harm beyond families (2023)
Journal Article
Firmin, C., & Manister, M. (2023). ‘This has given people what is needed’: progress and pitfalls for establishing child protection pathways in England that address significant harm beyond families. Child and family law quarterly, 35(2), 159-182

Child protection systems, and the legal frameworks underpinning them, are central to safeguarding young people at risk of significant harm. However, their design often assumes that the risks young people need protecting from are attributable to the a...
