We describe here the development and characterization of a conditionally inducible mouse model expressing Lifeact-GFP, a peptide that reports the dynamics of filamentous actin. We have used this model to study platelets, megakaryocytes and melanoblas... Read More about Tissue inducible Lifeact expression allows visualization of actin dynamics in vivo and ex vivo.

The good, the bad, and the hands-on: constructs of public participation, anglers, and lay management of water environments (2012)
Journal Article

We use a qualitative study of recreational anglers in northern England to explore constructions of ‘the public' in environmental management. We examine good and bad constructs of ‘the public' and show how they emphasise knowledge over practice. We ar...
