Forensic examination of the hand

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, Volume 29, Issue S2, Page 116-131, September 2023., 2023
Abstract Using anatomical feature comparison to consider potential matches from hand images to identify or eliminate suspects in an investigation, commonly relating to those involved in the production of images of child sexual abuse, is an emerging forensic methodology that has become increasingly utilized by police forces within the United Kingdom ...

Transdermal drug delivery in horses: An in vitro comparison of skin structure and permeation of two model drugs at various anatomical sites

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 34, Issue 3, Page 235-245, June 2023., 2023
Background – Oral and parenteral drug delivery in horses can be difficult. Equine‐specific transdermal drug formulations offer improved ease of treatment; development of such formulations requires a deeper understanding of the structural and chemical tissue barrier of horse skin. Hypothesis/Objectives – To compare the structural composition and barrier

Archaeological identification of fragmented nuts and fruits from key Asia‐Pacific economic tree species using anatomical criteria: Comparative analysis of Canarium, Pandanus and Terminalia

Archaeology in Oceania, Volume 57, Issue 3, Page 160-188, October 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT The fats, protein and carbohydrates afforded by tree nuts and fruits are key resources for communities from Southeast Asia, through Melanesia, Australia and across Oceania. They are important in long‐distance marine trade networks, large‐scale ceremonial gatherings, and are core resources in a wide range of subsistence economies, including ...

The terroir of the finch: How spatial and temporal variation shapes phenotypic traits in Darwin's finches

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 10, October 2022., 2022
The term terroir is used in viticulture to emphasize how the biotic and abiotic characteristics of a local site influence grape physiology and the properties of wine. In ecology and evolution, such terroir (i.e., the effect of space or “site”) is expected to play an important role in shaping phenotypic traits, but how important is the pure spatial ...

A review of the osteoderms of lizards (Reptilia: Squamata)

Biological Reviews, Volume 97, Issue 1, Page 1-19, February 2022., 2022
ABSTRACT Osteoderms are mineralised structures consisting mainly of calcium phosphate and collagen. They form directly within the skin, with or without physical contact with the skeleton. Osteoderms, in some form, may be primitive for tetrapods as a whole, and are found in representatives of most major living lineages including turtles, crocodilians ...

Clinical Techniques: When and how to do a myringotomy – a practical guide

Veterinary Dermatology, Volume 32, Issue 3, Page 302-e82, June 2021., 2021
A myringotomy is a surgical incision made in the tympanic membrane (TM). This gives access to the middle ear for sampling, flushing and instilling topical therapy. It should be considered whenever the TM is intact and there is clinical evidence of otitis media, abnormal TMs and/or abnormal diagnostic imaging. Samples should be collected for cytological

Seaweed functional diversity revisited: Confronting traditional groups with quantitative traits

Journal of Ecology, Volume 108, Issue 6, Page 2390-2405, November 2020., 2020
A comprehensive dataset of directly measured functional traits revealed extensive mismatch between commonly used ‘traditional’ seaweed functional groups and underlying traits. Traditional grouping schemes are practical and allow first order approximations, but risk considerable loss of functional information.

Cold‐blooded commerce: Characterizing and predicting trade in Australian squamates

Conservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
Despite a national ban on native wildlife exports, Australian reptile species continue to appear in international trade. Using boosted regression trees, we found that large body sizes and taxonomic family, rather than color or patterning, best predicted trade presence. We identified 59 species likely to be targeted in the future, providing key insights

Cryptic signals: substomatal architecture influences stomatal responses to red light and CO2

New Phytologist, Volume 249, Issue 1, Page 181-188, January 2026.
Summary The mesophyll provides a critical signal for stomatal responses to red light (RL) and CO2 in angiosperms. By contrast, the stomatal response to blue light (BL) is largely guard cell‐specific. It is not known whether substomatal or mesophyll anatomy influences the effectiveness of the mesophyll signal driving stomatal responses to RL and CO2 ...

Hippo pathway effectors are associated with glioma patient survival, control cell proliferation and sterol metabolism through TEAD3

Brain Pathology, Volume 35, Issue 6, November 2025.
The Hippo pathway transcription factor TEAD3 represents an independent prognostic biomarker of tumor recurrence and a potential therapeutic vulnerability through its regulation of cholesterol metabolism in glioma. Abstract Glioblastomas represent the most common and lethal primary brain tumors in the world.
