Seeing ourselves in anatomy: Embedding equity, diversity, and inclusivity to transform learning in a UK BSc curriculum

open access: yesAnatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Embedding intersectional equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) in anatomy education is essential to reflect the growing diversity of student populations, support all learners, and prepare graduates for a more inclusive, socially responsive global workforce.

Gravitational Lensing by Spherical Lenses

open access: yesInternational Journal of Astronomy and Astrophysics, 2014
In this work we introduced a new proposal to study the gravitational lensing theory by spherical lenses, starting from its surface mass density $Σ(x)$ written in terms of a decreasing function $f$ of a dimensionless coordinate $x$ on the lens plane. The main result is the use of the function $f(x)$ to find directly the lens properties, at the same time

Cross‐disciplinary integration: Information practices and a role for information scholars. An annual review of information science and technology paper

open access: yesJournal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cross‐disciplinary research is a priority for many academic institutions, with a growing body of scholarship dedicated to studying the central practice of cross‐disciplinarity: integration, or the synthesis of knowledge, information, and data across disciplines and domains.

QSOs and galaxies: lensing, clustering and redshift-space distortions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The aim of this thesis is to analyze statistically the available QSO, LRG, galaxy and cluster samples in order to estimate the QSO-galaxy lensing anti-correlation signal and measure the mass of foreground galaxies and clusters and to estimate the QSO-LRG

Probing the Evolution of Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies at the Cosmic Noon via Strong Gravitational Lensing

open access: yes, 2023
The primary objective of this thesis is to explore the early stages of the evolution of Dusty Star-Forming Galaxies (DSFGs) by leveraging the physical phenomenon of strong gravitational lensing.

Lensing in the Blue. II. Estimating the Sensitivity of Stratospheric Balloons to Weak Gravitational Lensing

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The Superpressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope ( SuperBIT ) is a diffraction-limited, wide-field, 0.5 m, near-infrared to near-ultraviolet observatory designed to exploit the stratosphere’s space-like conditions.

‘School is their whole world’: Teachers' perspectives on loneliness among children and adolescents from England and mainland China

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract As front‐line observers and active participants in pupils' daily lives, teachers closely monitor pupils' social interactions, emotional states and behavioural changes. Their unique perspective enables them to detect problems in the social lives of their pupils that may not be immediately visible to peers, parents or mental health professionals.

Measuring what matters: Evaluating the impact of curriculum decolonisation initiatives in UK business schools

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Curriculum decolonisation has become a prominent feature of equity agendas in UK higher education, yet there remains limited empirical and theoretical work on how such initiatives are evaluated, particularly within business schools. This paper presents one of the first multi‐institutional empirical studies examining how UK business schools ...

Microlensing-Based Studies of the Unresolved Structure of AGNs and the Composition of Lensing Galaxies

open access: yesOpen Astronomy, 2011
Multiple images of quasars formed by gravitational lensing are typically seen through the lensing galaxy. The granulation of the galaxy in stars or other compact objects induces local (‘microscopic’) but strong fluctuations in the gravitational potential
