Measuring and Harmonising Coverage, Generosity and History of Work‐Injury Policies Globally

open access: yesSocial Policy &Administration, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT I present new measures of generosity, coverage and institutional characteristics of work‐injury policy across 189 countries in the Global Work‐Injury Policy Dataset (GWIP) version 2.0. To date, major research efforts produced detailed social policy data for the rich Western countries, and more recently countries of Eastern, Central and Central‐

Determinants of cardiac output in health and heart failure

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sustained physical exercise depends on delivery of oxygenated blood to exercising muscle. At least among healthy individuals, bulk transport of blood is tightly matched to metabolic demand, such that cardiac output increases by ∼6 L/min for every 1 L/min increase in oxygen uptake. Multiple factors contribute to the regulation of cardiac output,

The evolution of muscle spindles

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Muscle spindles are stretch‐sensitive mechanoreceptors found in the skeletal muscles of most four‐limbed vertebrates. They are unique amongst sensory receptors in the ability to regulate their sensitivity by contraction of the intrafusal muscle fibres on which the sensory endings lie.

Number and relative abundance of synaptic vesicles in functionally distinct priming states determine synaptic strength and short‐term plasticity

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Neurotransmitter release was characterized at post‐hearing rat calyx of Held synapses, before and after pharmacologically augmenting synaptic strength, by recording unitary EPSCs, or capacitance changes in response to presynaptic step depolarizations.

Making the case for democracy: A field‐experiment on democratic persuasion

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Political Research, Volume 64, Issue 2, Page 559-579, May 2025.
Abstract Ordinary citizens can serve as a critical defence against democratic backsliding. But beneath the surface, citizens' commitment to democracy is sometimes fragile, with crises exacerbating existing anxieties. We introduce ‘democratic persuasion’ as an actionable intervention to foster the resilience of citizens' commitment to liberal democracy.
