ALIED: Humans as adaptive lie detectors. (2015)
Journal Article
Street, C. N. H. ALIED: Humans as adaptive lie detectors. Journal of Applied Research in Memory and Cognition, 4(4), 335-343. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jarmac.2015.06.002

People make for poor lie detectors. They have accuracy rates comparable to a coin toss, and come with a set of systematic biases that sway the judgment. This pessimistic view stands in contrast to research showing that people make informed decisions... Read More about ALIED: Humans as adaptive lie detectors..

Theory and Practice: Bulk Synthesis of C3B and its H2- and Li-Storage Capacity (2015)
Journal Article
King, T. C., Matthews, P. D., Glass, H., Cormack, J. A., Holgado, J. P., Leskes, M., …Wright, D. S. (2015). Theory and Practice: Bulk Synthesis of C3B and its H2- and Li-Storage Capacity. Angewandte Chemie International Edition, 54(20), 5919-5923. https://doi.org/10.1002/anie.201412200

Previous theoretical studies of C3B have suggested that boron-doped graphite is a promising H2- and Li-storage material, with large maximum capacities. These characteristics could lead to exciting applications as a lightweight H2-storage material for... Read More about Theory and Practice: Bulk Synthesis of C3B and its H2- and Li-Storage Capacity.

Selective Lability of Ruthenium(II) Arene Amino Acid Complexes (2015)
Journal Article
Scrase, T. G., O’Neill, M. J., Peel, A. J., Senior, P. W., Matthews, P. D., Shi, H., …Barker, P. D. (2015). Selective Lability of Ruthenium(II) Arene Amino Acid Complexes. Inorganic Chemistry, 54(7), 3118-3124. https://doi.org/10.1021/ic502051y

A series of organometallic complexes of the form [(PhH)Ru(amino acid)]+ have been synthesized using amino acids able to act as tridentate ligands. The straightforward syntheses gave enantiomerically pure complexes with two stereogenic centers due to... Read More about Selective Lability of Ruthenium(II) Arene Amino Acid Complexes.
