Abstract: A new wearable silent speech interface (SSI) based on Permanent Magnetic Articulography (PMA) was developed with the involvement of end users in the design process. Hence, desirable features such as appearance, port-ability, ease of use and...

Sex-biased parental care and sexual size dimorphism in a provisioning arthropod (2015)
Journal Article
Field, J., Shreeves, G., Kennedy, M., Brace, S., & Gilbert, J. D. J. (2015). Sex-biased parental care and sexual size dimorphism in a provisioning arthropod. Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 69(12), 1897-1906. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00265-015-2002-1

The diverse selection pressures driving the evolution of sexual size dimorphism (SSD) have long been debated. Whilst the balance between fecundity selection and sexual selection has received much attention, explanations based on sex-specific ecology...

The evolution of parental care in insects: a test of current hypotheses (2015)
Journal Article
Gilbert, J. D. J., & Manica, A. (2015). The evolution of parental care in insects: a test of current hypotheses. Evolution, 69(5), 1255-1270. https://doi.org/10.1111/evo.12656

Which sex should care for offspring is a fundamental question in evolution. Invertebrates, and insects in particular, show some of the most diverse kinds of parental care of all animals, but to date there has been no broad comparative study of the ev...
