A response to: Almahmoud, O. (2021) Do newborns really don't talk, or are we just not skilful enough to understand them?
(2021-06-24)Neonatal practitioners are increasingly recognising that it is important to be aware of how we can communicate with the infants cared for in neonatal units. It is also essential that there is a clear understanding of what ... -
Medicines Related Problems (MRPs) originating in Primary care settings in Older Adults - A Systematic Review
(2021-06-23)Background: As people age, they become increasingly vulnerable to the untoward effects of medicines due to changes in body systems. These may result in medicines related problems (MRPs) and consequent decline or deterioration ... -
Low-frequency radio spectra of submillimetre galaxies in the Lockman Hole
(2021-04-19)We investigate the radio properties of a sample of 53 sources selected at 850 $\mu$m from the SCUBA-2 Cosmology Legacy Survey using new deep, low-frequency radio imaging of the Lockman Hole field from the Low Frequency ... -

Highly integrated transmitting and receiving phased array with multi-channels and high efficiency in K/Ka-band SatCom application
(2021-07-26)Abstract A highly integrated K/Ka-band phased array with duplexing channels for transmitting and dual circularly polarized channels for receiving is presented. To increase both the efficiency and channel isolation, a novel ... -
Constraints on the nearby exoplanet Eps Ind Ab from deep near/mid-infrared imaging limits
(2021-07-21)The past decade has seen increasing efforts in detecting and characterising exoplanets by high contrast imaging in the near/mid-infrared, which is the optimal wavelength domain for studying old, cold planets. In this work, ... -
