Verbal intelligence is a more robust cross-sectional measure of cognitive reserve than level of education in healthy older adults.
(2021)Background: Cognitive reserve is most commonly measured using socio-behavioural proxy variables. These variables are easy to collect, have a straightforward interpretation, and are widely associated with reduced risk of ... -
Examining the Role of the Noradrenergic Locus Coeruleus for Predicting Attention and Brain Maintenance in Healthy Old Age and Disease: An MRI Structural Study for the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative.
(2021)The noradrenergic theory of Cognitive Reserve (Robertson, 2013-2014) postulates that the upregulation of the locus coeruleus-noradrenergic system (LC-NA) originating in the brainstem might facilitate cortical networks ... -
A bridge between the breath and the brain: Synchronization of respiration, a pupillometric marker of the locus coeruleus, and an eeg marker of attentional control state
(2021)Yogic and meditative traditions have long held that the fluctuations of the breath and the mind are intimately related. While respiratory modulation of cortical activity and attentional switching are established, the extent ... -
Polymer-Stabilized Elemental Boron Nanoparticles for Boron Neutron Capture Therapy: Initial Irradiation Experiments
(2022)Sufficient boron-10 isotope (10B) accumulation by tumor cells is one of the main requirements for successful boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT). The inability of the clinically registered 10B-containing borophenylalanine ... -
The Power of Penitence: Penitent Women and the Friars in Medieval Florence
(Cork University Press, 2024)In this essay I propose to investigate the world of female mendicant piety through some of the imagery produced in mendicant churches or that which can be reliably connected to mendicant piety and to women, either in the ... -

Metamaterial cell-based superstrate towards bandwidth and gain enhancement of quad-band CPW-fed antenna for wireless applications
(2020)A multiband coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed antenna loaded with metamaterial unit cell for GSM900, WLAN, LTE-A, and 5G Wi-Fi applications is presented in this paper. The proposed metamaterial structure is a combination of ... -
Physical Limitation of Range-Domain Secrecy Using Frequency Diverse Arrays
(2020)In this paper, the concept and recent development of exploiting frequency diverse array (FDA) and its variants for the physical-layer wireless security have been revisited and carefully examined. Following rigorous analytical ... -
On the distortion of UWB circularly polarized time-domain pulses in presence of rotation
(2019)The paper provides a first theoretical study on the effect of rotational Doppler on circularly polarized pulsed communication. Despite the circularly polarized communication being considered immune to signal fading due to ... -
Compact ultra-wideband monopole antenna loaded with metamaterial
(2020)A printed compact monopole antenna based on a single negative (SNG) metamaterial is proposed for ultra-wideband (UWB) applications. A low-profile, key-shaped structure forms the radiating monopole and is loaded with ... -
Compact broadband triple-ring five-port reflectometer for microwave brain imaging applications
(2019)The broadband five-port reflectometer (FPR) is proposed using a triple-ring based technique. The design introduces a tapering in the inter-ring transmission lines (TLs), which provides additional degrees of freedom for ... -
RSS-based indoor localization system with single base station
(2022)The paper proposes an Indoor Localization System (ILS) which uses only one fixed Base Station (BS) with simple non-reconfigurable antennas. The proposed algorithm measures Received Signal Strength (RSS) and maps it to the ... -
Measurement of orientation and distance change using circularly polarized UWB signals
(2022)The paper proposes methodology to employ circularly polarized UWB signals for simultaneous measurement of orientation and distance changes between transmitter and receiver. The proposed technique uses the rotational Doppler ... -
Energy Efficient Dynamic Directional Modulation with Electrically Small Antennas
(2022)This letter proposes a compact and energy efficient Directional Modulation (DM) scheme for small and power constrained devices (e.g. Internet of Things wireless sensors). The scheme uses a uniform circular array of monopole ... -
The Ottoman Empire and the emergence of its Irish Question
(2022)The Ottoman Empire and Ireland seem an unlikely pair in every respect. In the secondary literature, the paths of the two countries never converge. Except for Sultan Abdülmecid’s famous aid during the Famine, there has been ... -

Trauma, Motive and the Post-Troubles Psychopath in The Fall
(2021)This article discusses the depiction of the serial killer, Paul Spector, in the BBC/RTÉ television series The Fall (2013–2016). It complements existing scholarship on the series’ female detective by considering how Spector’s ... -
