Journal Article
(2011). Is no praise good praise? Effects of positive feedback on children's and university students’ responses to subsequent failures. British Journal of Educational Psychology, 327 - 339. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.2044-8279.2011.02028.x

Background. According to Dweck and colleagues, praise can be delivered using person (‘you are clever') or process terms (‘you worked hard'). Research suggests that giving people process praise after success can help them deal better with subsequent f... Read More about Is no praise good praise?

Grindring Bodies: Racial and Affective Economies of Online Queer Desire (2011)
Journal Article
(2011). Grindring Bodies: Racial and Affective Economies of Online Queer Desire

Online technologies provide new participatory spaces for gay men to organise sexual and intimate encounters. While these spaces are often characterised as enabling new forms of sexual subjectivity and queer sociability, they mobilise new sexual templ...

(2011). A variational Bayesian approach for the robust analysis of the cortical silent period from EMG recordings of brain stroke patients. Neurocomputing, 1301 -1314. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.neucom.2010.12.006

Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a powerful tool for the calculation of parameters related to the intracortical excitability and inhibition of the motor cortex. The cortical silent period (CSP) is one such parameter that corresponds to the...

Eps8 regulates hair bundle length and functional maturation of mammalian auditory hair cells (2011)
Journal Article
(2011). Eps8 regulates hair bundle length and functional maturation of mammalian auditory hair cells. PLoS Biology, 1-17. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pbio.1001048a

Hair cells of the mammalian cochlea are specialized for the dynamic coding of sound stimuli. The transduction of sound waves into electrical signals depends upon mechanosensitive hair bundles that project from the cell's apical surface. Each stereoci...
