  • Parameter redundancy and the existence of maximum likelihood estimates in log-linear models 

    Sharifi Far, Serveh; Papathomas, Michail; King, Ruth (2019-09-10) - Journal article
    Log-linear models are typically fitted to contingency table data to describe and identify the relationship between different categorical variables. However, the data may include observed zero cell entries. The presence of ...

  • A metalloproteomic analysis of interactions between plasma proteins and zinc: : elevated fatty acid levels affect zinc distribution 

    Coverdale, James P. C.; Barnett, James P.; Adamu, Adamu H.; Griffiths, Ellie J.; Stewart, Alan James; Blindauer, Claudia A. (2019-10-15) - Journal article
    Serum albumin is a highly abundant plasma protein associated with the transport of metal ions, pharmaceuticals, fatty acids and a variety of small molecules in the blood. Once thought of as a molecular ‘sponge’, mounting ...

  • Stereotypic horses (Equus caballus) are not cognitively impaired 

    Briefer Freymond, Sabrina; Ruet, Alice; Grivaz, Maurine; Fuentes, Camille; Zuberbühler, Klaus; Bachmann, Iris; Briefer, Elodie F. (2019-01) - Journal article
    Stereotypies in animals are thought to arise from an interaction between genetic predisposition and sub-optimal housing conditions. In domestic horses, a well-studied stereotypy is crib-biting, an abnormal behaviour that ...

  • Galaxy And Mass Assembly (GAMA) : the environmental dependence of the galaxy main sequence 

    Wang, L.; Norberg, P.; Brough, S.; Brown, M. J. I.; da Cunha, E.; Davies, L. J.; Driver, S. P.; Holwerda, B. W.; Hopkins, A. M.; Lara-Lopez, M. A.; Liske, J.; Loveday, J.; Grootes, M. W.; Popescu, C. C.; Wright, A. H. (2018-10) - Journal article
    Aims: We aim to investigate if the environment (characterised by the host dark matter halo mass) plays any role in shaping the galaxy star formation main sequence (MS). Methods: The Galaxy and Mass Assembly project (GAMA) ...

  • Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) : accurate number densities and environments of massive ultra-compact galaxies at 0.02 < z < 0.3⋆ 

    Buitrago, F.; Ferreras, I.; Kelvin, L. S.; Baldry, I. K.; Davies, L.; Angthopo, J.; Khochfar, S.; Hopkins, A. M.; Driver, S. P.; Brough, S.; Sabater, J.; Conselice, C. J.; Liske, J.; Holwerda, B. W.; Bremer, M. N.; Phillipps, S.; López-Sánchez, A. R.; Graham, A. W. (2018-11) - Journal article
    Context. Massive ultra-compact galaxies (MUGs) are common at z = 2−3, but very rare in the nearby Universe. Simulations predict that the few surviving MUGs should reside in galaxy clusters, whose large relative velocities ...
