The project is significant for the development of practical, bone-favourable and degradation-inhibiting surfaces for magnesium implants, which are in demand and can bring significant patient benefits.

Our studies are focussing on measuring gait and other affected activities, as well as patient reported outcomes, to determine whether the procedure is effective in the long term.

We are currently conducting a study which uses magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in combination with physical and psychological measures, to identify structural lesions of the neck following whiplash injury.

This research looks at perspective-taking, particularly in the areas of empathy, compassion and alturism.

Low-resolution face images occur in several settings that require a human observer to identify the face or its expression. For example, a crime eyewitness may have seen the perpetrator's face only blurred by distance. This project aims to improve low-resolution face perception. Previous approaches have attempted only to improve general image visibility. Here, the novel theoretical idea is to also alter the face's structure, tapping knowledge about higher-level face coding. Manipulations are caricaturing and whole-then-part alternation, as derived from face-space and holistic processing theories, respectively. Effects of viewpoint and own-versus other race faces will test practical generalisability of the new methods, and refine theory.

Visual search is the process of searching for a target amongst other objects, for example diagnostic medical imaging or airport baggage security screening. This research looks to find characteristics that lead to missing targets and intervene to increase vigilance and reduce misses.
