Consumer single-use plastic waste has received much attention from the public, policy-makers and researchers. However, management of such in medical settings been less well examined. This article reviews existing evidence on strategies within hospitals, with a particular focus plastics. The develops 'Waste Hierarchy-Technology Readiness Levels' framework assesses each strategy against it, indicating maturity technology strategy's position Waste Hierarchy, addition to its relative adherence...
People can keep track of target objects as they move among identical distractors using only spatiotemporal information. We investigated whether or not participants use motion information during the moment-to-moment tracking by adding to texture moving objects. The either remained static moved relative object's direction motion, in same direction, opposite orthogonal each trajectory. Results showed that, compared condition, performance was worse when object and better object. Our results...
Abstract The rise of Urban Agriculture projects across the UK has led to a surge interest in their efficacy and resulting social impacts. Real Food Wythenshawe is Lottery-funded urban food project that aims teach population grow own cook from scratch. area, popularly referred as ‘Europe's largest council estate’, suffers high levels deprivation been described ‘food desert’ due perceived lack access fresh fruit vegetables (Small World Consulting, 2013). In order encourage residents increase...
Single-use personal protective equipment (PPE) has been essential to protect healthcare workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, intensified use of PPE could counteract previous efforts made by UK NHS Trusts reduce their plastic footprint.In this study, we conducted an in-depth case study in Royal Cornwall Hospitals Trust investigate plastic-related issues a typical before, and after We first collected hospital routine data on both procurement usage single-use (including face masks,...
Under dichoptic viewing conditions, rivalrous gratings that differ in both color and form can give the percept of from one eye part other eye. This study examined afterimage following such misbinding to form. The first experiment established afterimages misbound were seen. Two possible mechanisms for are (1) persisting retinal representations subsequently resolved misbinding, as during viewing, (2) a response central neural representation with results support formation percept, not...
To ensure sustainable seafood production for future generations, businesses must be resilient in the face of shocks and stresses. Recent research suggests that by increasing alignment with principles circular economy such as eliminating waste regenerating natural environments, companies may able to improve their general resilience (i.e. unforeseen disruptions). Research presented here empirically explores potential links between economy, risk mitigation through a survey workshops United...
The expanding critical literature on Urban Agriculture (UA) makes links between the withdrawal of state services and institutionalisation volunteering, while observing that challenging funding landscapes can foster competitive environments third-sector organisations. Where these organisations are forced to compete for survival at expense collaboration, their ability collectively upscale expand beneficial activities be compromised. This paper focuses a lottery-funded UA project draws...
Do people use local motion information to predict the future locations of targets during multiple object tracking? Our previous research suggested this may be true because tracking accuracy was lower when texture on conflicted with themselves compared it did not (St. Clair, Huff, & Seiffert, 2010, JOV). However, these findings allowed for possibility that perception position and affected by motion. Here, we investigated whether direction is misrepresented objects conflicting Observers...

It has been hypothesized that gamma-band oscillations (e.g, 25–80 Hz) of the electroencephalogram (EEG) support active maintenance representations in working memory. Consistent with this hypothesis, activity reported during retention interval visual memory tasks humans. In present study, we tested hypothesis by recording EEG from surface electrodes on macaque monkeys locations memory-guided saccade task. We found a decrease gamma power evoked onset stimulus. However, inconsistent increases...
