  • Dating Thach Lac

    Open AccessFiona Petchey, Phillip J Piper et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2022References: 31

    In many locations around the world, shell radiocarbon dates underpin archaeological research. The dating of shell brings the chronological relationship between the sample and target event (e.g., hunting and food preparation) into congruence, while shells are valuable geochemical proxies for understanding past climate dynamics and environments. However, this information can be lost as the shell, composites of biopolymers and carbonate minerals (mo…

    Patients on hospital haemodialysis spend many hours a week away from their home, undergoing a treatment that is time consuming and physically and mentally draining. Given the often unpleasant experience of dialysis, it is not surprising that art has been one of the possible interventions employed. This study investigates an art project led by a professional artist at the renal dialysis unit at York Hospital. Twelve patients involved in the projec…

    Ann Oakley, Meg Wiggins et al.ARTICLEEthnicity and Health2003Cited by: 7References: 3

    Procedures can be developed for recruiting people with diverse cultural backgrounds to take part in research.
