Visual complexity of egg patterns predicts egg rejection according to Weber's law.

Tanmay Dixit, Andrei L Apostol, Kuan-Chi Chen, Anthony JC Fulford, Christopher P Town, Claire N Spottiswoode

Aug 20, 2022

Visual complexity is ubiquitous in nature. Drivers of complexity include selection in coevolutionary arms races between antagonists. However, the causes and consequences of biological complexity and its perception are largely...

Common polymorphic variation in the genetically diverse African insulin gene and its association with size at birth.

Clive J Petry, Pura Rayco-Solon, Anthony JC Fulford, John DH Stead, Dianne L Wingate, Ken K Ong, Giorgio Sirugo, Andrew M Prentice, David B Dunger

Feb 21, 2020

The insulin variable number of tandem repeats (INS VNTR) has been variably associated with size at birth in non-African populations. Small size at birth is a major determinant of neonatal mortality, so the INS VNTR may influence...

Distribution of the superconducting critical current density within a Gd–Ba–Cu–O single grain

Yunhua Shi, Michael Gough, Anthony R Dennis, John H Durrell, David A Cardwell

Feb 20, 2020

Abstract: The magnitude of the maximum trapped magnetic field in a bulk, single-grain superconductor is a key performance figure of merit. This is determined, generally, by the magnitude of the critical current density, Jc, and...
