Do Microscopes Have Politics? Gendering the Electron Microscope in Laboratory Biological Research
Objects like microscopes are gendered depending on their context. The introduction of the electron microscope at Leeds University in early 1940s Britain was under the control of high-status physicists, most of whom were men, who regulated its access over and against biologists. Moreover, the microscope required physical strength more associated with men than women, combined with a sound knowledge of physics. This article explores the challenges w…
Polar weighing—an Oertling balance in Antarctica
Scales and spring balances have been part of the equipment of polar expeditions since the explorations of the nineteenth century, but precision beam balances have also been included, specifically, those made by the London instrument firm of L. Oertling. In this paper, the reasons for taking such delicate instruments into such adverse conditions are discussed, as well as some of the logistical and practical problems involved in their transport, st…
‘Take my kidneys but not my corneas’—Selective preferences as a hidden problem for ‘opt‐out’ organ donation policy
With aims to both increase organ supply and better reflect individual donation preferences, many nations worldwide have shifted from ‘opt‐in’ to ‘opt‐out’ systems for post‐mortem organ donation (PMOD). In such countries, while a prospective donor's willingness to donate their organs/tissues for PMOD was previously ascertained— at least partially —by their having recorded positive donation preferences on an official register prior to death, this w…
Digital messaging to support control for type 2 diabetes (StAR2D)

Acute effects of a herb extract formulation and inulin fibre on appetite, energy intake and food choice
Experimental study to investigate the impact of a patented fibre complex containing CM3 alginate (Biogenate complexTM; AppesatTM) on food intake and appetite ratings in women
Experimental study to investigate the impact of a patented soluble plant fibre complex Omtec19® (ObesimedTM) on food intake and appetite ratings in women
Bayesian Analysis for Evidence-based Practice in Social Work
The article discusses the use of Bayesian analysis as a statistical paradigm conducive to addressing the challenges of evidence-based practice (EBP) in social work research and practice. The author suggests that, unlike classical statistical analysis, Bayesian analysis allows researchers to translate practice wisdom into evidence and incorporate data from past and present studies. A comparison of classical statistical analysis and Bayesian statis…
