Single-cone imaging in inherited and acquired colour vision deficiencies
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Colour vision deficiencies are common in humans and occur both as a consequence of inherited cone opsin mutations, altering the number or function of the different cone types expressed in the retina, and acquired through ... -
Skill acquisition as a function of age, hand and task difficulty: Interactions between cognition and action
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Some activities can be meaningfully dichotomised as ‘cognitive’ or ‘sensorimotor’ in nature— but many cannot. This has radical implications for understanding activity limitation in disability. For example, older adults ... -
Stem cell function is conserved during shortterm storage of cultured epidermal cell sheets at 12°C
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Transplantation of cultured epidermal cell sheets (CES) can be life-saving for patients with large area burns. CES have also been successfully used to regenerate eye and urethral epithelia in animal models. Short-term ... -

The Glutamine Transporter Slc38a1 Regulates GABAergic Neurotransmission and Synaptic Plasticity
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)GABA signaling sustains fundamental brain functions, from nervous system development to the synchronization of population activity and synaptic plasticity. Despite these pivotal features, molecular determinants underscoring ... -
The level of inflammatory tear cytokines is elevated in congenital Aniridia and associated with meibomian gland dysfunction
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Purpose: To investigate the tear cytokine profile in congenital aniridia, and correlate cytokine levels with ophthalmologic findings. Methods: We examined 35 patients with aniridia and 21 healthy controls. Tear fluid ... -
The Three Paralogous MicroRNA Clusters in Development and Disease - miR-17-92, miR-106a-363, and miR-106b-25
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)MicroRNAs (miRNAs) form a class of noncoding RNA genes whose products are small single-stranded RNAs that are involved in the regulation of translation and degradation of mRNAs. There is a fine balance between deregulation ... -
