Journal Article
Bray, J. W., Towlson, C., Hayes, S. C., & Fogarty, M. (2025). Creatine kinase and neuromuscular fatigue responses following differing spells of simulated cricket fast bowling. PLoS ONE, 20(1 January), Article e0317692. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0317692

The fast-bowling action demands repetitive high-intensity whole body movements, imposing complex physical and perceptual demands on players that vary significantly throughout the season. This study aimed to assess and establish practical methods and... Read More about Creatine kinase and neuromuscular fatigue responses following differing spells of simulated cricket fast bowling.

The Classification of Movement in Infants for the Autonomous Monitoring of Neurological Development (2023)
Journal Article
Turner, A., Hayes, S., & Sharkey, D. (2023). The Classification of Movement in Infants for the Autonomous Monitoring of Neurological Development. Sensors, 23(10), Article 4800. https://doi.org/10.3390/s23104800

Neurodevelopmental delay following extremely preterm birth or birth asphyxia is common but diagnosis is often delayed as early milder signs are not recognised by parents or clinicians. Early interventions have been shown to improve outcomes. Automati... Read More about The Classification of Movement in Infants for the Autonomous Monitoring of Neurological Development.
