Altering an extended phenotype reduces intraspecific male aggression and can maintain diversity in cichlid fish (2013)
Journal Article
Magalhaes, I. S., Croft, G. E., & Joyce, D. A. (2013). Altering an extended phenotype reduces intraspecific male aggression and can maintain diversity in cichlid fish. PeerJ, 1, Article e209. https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj.209

Reduced male aggression towards different phenotypes generating negative frequency-dependent intrasexual selection has been suggested as a mechanism to facilitate the invasion and maintenance of novel phenotypes in a population. To date, the best emp... Read More about Altering an extended phenotype reduces intraspecific male aggression and can maintain diversity in cichlid fish.

Phase mixing of popped star clusters (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Candlish, G. N., Smith, R., Fellhauer, M., Gibson, B. K., Kroupa, P., & Assmann, P. (2013, November). Phase mixing of popped star clusters. Presented at XIV Latin American Regional IAU Meeting

As star clusters are expected to form with low star formation efficiencies, the gas in the cluster is expelled quickly and early in their development: the star cluster pops. This leads to an unbound stellar system. Previous N-body simulations have de... Read More about Phase mixing of popped star clusters.

Replication stress and chromatin context link ATM activation to a role in DNA replication (2013)
Journal Article

ATM-mediated signaling in response to DNA damage is a barrier to tumorigenesis. Here we asked whether replication stress could also contribute to ATM signaling. We demonstrate that, in the absence of DNA damage, ATM responds to replication stress in... Read More about Replication stress and chromatin context link ATM activation to a role in DNA replication.
