A 4.6 GHz lower-hybrid current drive (LHCD) system has been firstly commissioned in EAST in the 2014 campaign. The first LHCD results with 4.6 GHz show that LHW can be coupled to plasma with a low reflection coefficient, drive plasma current and plas...

G., & Young, L. E. (2015). Cardiomyocytes from human pluripotent stem cells: From laboratory curiosity to industrial biomedical platform. BBA - Molecular Cell Research, 1863(7 Part B), 1728 - 1748. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bbamcr.2015.10.014

Cardiomyocytes from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs-CMs) could revolutionise biomedicine. Global burden of heart failure will soon reach USD $90bn, while unexpected cardiotoxicity underlies 28% of drug withdrawals. Advances in hPSC isolation, Cas...

Lifecourse transitions, gender and drinking in later life (2015)
Journal Article
Frisher, M., Holdsworth, C., MENDONÇA, M., DE OLIVEIRIA, C., PIKHART, H., & SHELTON, N. (2017). Lifecourse transitions, gender and drinking in later life. Ageing and society, 37(3), 462-494. https://doi.org/10.1017/S0144686X15001178

Older people consume less alcohol than any other adult age group. However, in recent years survey data on alcohol consumption in the United Kingdom have shown that while younger age groups have experienced a decline in alcohol consumption, drinking b...

A dedicated undergraduate gynaecology teaching clinic: the Keele experience (2015)
Journal Article
(2015). A dedicated undergraduate gynaecology teaching clinic: the Keele experience. Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, 227-229. https://doi.org/10.3109/01443615.2015.1050651

Much discussion in the literature centres on how best to teach medical students the intricacies of gynaecological assessment and the subsequent formulation of a management plan. At Keele University skills are initially developed in a simulated settin... Read More about A dedicated undergraduate gynaecology teaching clinic: the Keele experience.

miRNA clusters as therapeutic targets for hormone-resistant breast cancer (2015)
Journal Article

Nicergoline inhibits human platelet Ca2+ signalling through triggering a microtubule-dependent reorganisation of the platelet ultrastructure (2015)
Journal Article
Harper. (2015). Nicergoline inhibits human platelet Ca2+ signalling through triggering a microtubule-dependent reorganisation of the platelet ultrastructure. British Journal of Pharmacology, 234-247. https://doi.org/10.1111/bph.13361

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:
Recently, we demonstrated that a pericellular Ca(2+) recycling system potentiates agonist-evoked Ca(2+) signalling and granule secretion in human platelets and hypothesized a role for the membrane complex (MC) in orchestratin...
