We use the GALFORM semi-analytical galaxy formation model implemented in the Planck Millennium N-body simulation to build a mock galaxy catalogue on an observer’s past lightcone. The mass resolution of this N-body simulation is almost an order of mag... Read More about The PAU Survey: a new constraint on galaxy formation models using the observed colour redshift relation.

MRL-Seg: Overcoming Imbalance in Medical Image Segmentation With Multi-Step Reinforcement Learning (2023)
Journal Article
Yang, F., Li, X., Duan, H., Xu, F., Huang, Y., Zhang, X., …Zheng, Y. (2024). MRL-Seg: Overcoming Imbalance in Medical Image Segmentation With Multi-Step Reinforcement Learning. IEEE Journal of Biomedical and Health Informatics, 28(2), 858-869. https://doi.org/10.1109/jbhi.2023.3336726

Medical image segmentation is a critical task for clinical diagnosis and research. However, dealing with highly imbalanced data remains a significant challenge in this domain, where the region of interest (ROI) may exhibit substantial variations acro...

Cell Senescence-Independent Changes of Human Skin Fibroblasts with Age (2024)
Journal Article
Fullard, N., Wordsworth, J., Welsh, C., Maltman, V., Bascom, C., Tasseff, R., …Shanley, D. (2024). Cell Senescence-Independent Changes of Human Skin Fibroblasts with Age. Cells, 13(8), Article 659. https://doi.org/10.3390/cells13080659

Skin ageing is defined, in part, by collagen depletion and fragmentation that leads to a loss of mechanical tension. This is currently believed to reflect, in part, the accumulation of senescent cells. We compared the expression of genes and proteins...

Comparison of photodamage in non-pigmented and pigmented human skin equivalents exposed to repeated ultraviolet radiation to investigate the role of melanocytes in skin photoprotection (2024)
Journal Article

Comparison of photodamage in non-pigmented and pigmented human skin equivalents exposed to repeated ultraviolet radiation to investigate the role of melanocytes in skin photoprotection. Frontiers in Medicine, 11, Article 1355799. https://doi.org/10.3389/fmed.2024.1355799

Introduction: Daily solar ultraviolet (UV) radiation has an important impact on skin health. Understanding the initial events of the UV-induced response is critical to prevent deleterious conditions. However, studies in human volunteers have ethical,...
