Probing magnetization dynamics of iron oxide nanoparticles using a point-probe magneto-optical method (2023)
Journal Article

Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) are promising as local heat generators for magnetic hyperthermia under AC magnetic fields. The heating efficacy of MNPs is determined by the AC hysteresis loop area, which in turn is affected by the dynamic magnetic prop...

Developing Biomimetic Hydrogels of the Arterial Wall as a Prothrombotic Substrate for In Vitro Human Thrombosis Models (2023)
Journal Article

Current in vitro thrombosis models utilise simplistic 2D surfaces coated with purified components of the subendothelial matrix. The lack of a realistic humanised model has led to greater study of thrombus formation in in vivo tests in animals. Here w...

Debiased ambient vibrations optical coherence elastography to profile cell, organoid and tissue mechanical properties (2023)
Journal Article

The role of the mechanical environment in defining tissue function, development and growth has been shown to be fundamental. Assessment of the changes in stiffness of tissue matrices at multiple scales has relied mostly on invasive and often speciali...

INVESTIGATION OF CELL AGGREGATE SIZE AND POTENTIAL BONE GROWTH WITH BONE CELL LINE AND HUMAN MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS (2023)
Conference Proceeding

Our previous research has demonstrated that minor adjustments to in vitro cellular aggregation parameters, i.e. alterations to aggregate size, can influence temporal and spatial mineral depositions within maturing bone cell nodules. What remains uncl... Read More about INVESTIGATION OF CELL AGGREGATE SIZE AND POTENTIAL BONE GROWTH WITH BONE CELL LINE AND HUMAN MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS.

Presentation / Conference

Development of Boron-Containing PVA-Based Cryogels with Controllable Boron Releasing Rate and Altered Influence on Osteoblasts (2023)
Journal Article

Cryogel formation is an effective approach to produce porous scaffolds for tissue engineering. In this study, cryogelation was performed to produce boron-containing scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. A combination of the synthetic polymer, poly(v...

Automatic Detection of Skin Cancer Melanoma Using Transfer Learning in Deep Network (2023)
Journal Article

As the deadliest type of skin cancer, melanoma has a high mortality rate and takes away thousands of lives in the UK every year. However, if detected at earlier stage, the survival rate largely increases. With the development of machine learning, man...
