Participatory knowledge mobilisation: an emerging model for international translational research in education (2015)
Journal Article
Jones, S.-L., Procter, R., & Younie, S. (in press). Participatory knowledge mobilisation: an emerging model for international translational research in education. Journal of education for teaching : JET, 41(5), 555-573. https://doi.org/10.1080/02607476.2015.1105540

Research alone does not inform practice, rather a process of knowledge translation is required to enable research findings to become meaningful for practitioners in their contextual settings. However, the translational process needs to be an iterativ... Read More about Participatory knowledge mobilisation: an emerging model for international translational research in education.

Translational research principles applied to education: the mapping educational specialist knowhow (MESH) initiative (2013)
Journal Article
Burden, K., Younie, S., & Leask, M. (2013). Translational research principles applied to education: the mapping educational specialist knowhow (MESH) initiative. Journal of education for teaching : JET, 39(4), 459-463. https://doi.org/10.1080/02607476.2013.801216

MESH is a part of a research project applying knowledge management principles which are well known in other sectors, public and private, to the education sector (Leask, 2011, 2012; Leask and Younie 2013, Leask and Preston 2012). The goal is to develo... Read More about Translational research principles applied to education: the mapping educational specialist knowhow (MESH) initiative.

Sensitivity analysis to explore responsiveness and dynamic range of multi-metric fish-based indices for assessing the ecological status of estuaries and lagoons (2012)
Journal Article
Alvarez, M. C., Franco, A., Pérez-Domínguez, R., & Elliott, M. (2013).

Evaluation of extraction methods for use with NMR-based metabolomics in the marine polychaete ragworm, Hediste diversicolor (2010)
Journal Article
del Carmen Alvarez, M., Donarski, J. A., Elliott, M., & Charlton, A. J. (2010). Evaluation of extraction methods for use with NMR-based metabolomics in the marine polychaete ragworm, Hediste diversicolor. Metabolomics, 6(4), 541-549. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11306-010-0222-y

The sediment-dwelling polychaete, Hediste diversicolor, is commonly found in Northern temperate estuaries. Its limited mobility and tolerance to polluted conditions makes it a good candidate for biological monitoring. Moreover, its importance in the...
