Face expertise and neural responses to face category and orientation
This dataset contains EEG measures taken from participants observing upright and inverted faces and upright houses.
Here we collate averages of standard ERP components, the P100 and N170, and selected MVPA decoding measures.
The data was collected to study how neural signals of face processing relate to a measure of face expertise (the Cambridge Face Memory task; also provided in the dataset)
Simulation data for the paper "Associations between socioeconomic status, cognition and brain structure: Evaluating potential causal pathways through mechanistic models of development"
The collection contains simulated data from artificial neural network (ANNs) models investigating socio-economic-status (SES) linked environmental influences and genetic effects on the development of cognition and behaviour. The file "Simulation code.docx" includes c-shell scripts and simulator code for the ANNs.
There were three populations of ANNs trained, which differed according to how SES-linked environmental influences were implemented: Stimulation, Structure, Stimulation+structure.
This archive comprises Excel files containing results and parameters for the three populations, each N=1000 individuals. Each population was given an intervention to close gaps in developmental outcomes. There are three further three 'intervention' Excel files containing equivalent results for the populations following the early interventions.

SDS PAGE showing chaperone binding to alpha-synuclein amyloid fibres for different conditions (+/- Apg2, WT or truncated mutant of DNAJB1, different dilutions of Apg2).
The dataset contains 1 file explaining the different conditions and 11 pictures of SDS PAGE showing the binding of various chaperones to alpha-synuclein fibres

Gillian Mezey interviewed by George Severs
Gillian Mezey interviewed by by George Severs, 6th May 2022. Interviewed via Zoom (online). Audio recording. The interview discusses sexual abuse and rape, specifically male victims of rape, and Mezey's psychiatric work (alongside Michael King) in this field
EM images of alpha-synuclein amyloid fibres incubated with chaperones
The dataset contains a file describing the images and 5 EM images acquired on a F20 microscope
Reduced data from XRR experiment at DLS as shown in The files contain three columns of data: q, reflectivity and error in reflectivity.
Reduced X-ray reflectivity data collected at I07, Diamond Light Source, as q, Reflectivity, error reflectivity. The sample was ovine or porcine lung surfactant spread at the air-water interface and exposed to low levels of ozone gas in molecular oxygen, the work is described in more detail in the publication: https://doi.org/10.1039/D2EA00032

Remembering nothing (Memory & Cognition). Supplementary Materials.
Supplementary Materials for the paper "Csink, Gliga & Mareschal (2021). Remembering nothing: Encoding and memory processes involved in representing empty locations, Memory & Cognition"
Contents: Supplementary Materials (text), Experimental task (screen recordings), stimuli (images), data (.mat files), analysis scripts (Matlab and R scripts).
The dataset consists of the eye-tracking data and reaction time/accuracy data collected in an experiment that addresses how empty locations are encoded and remembered as opposed to filled locations.
On each experimental trial, participants saw a number of locations that they were instructed to track (4 or 8), and respond whether a change occurred at a tracked location (filled->empty/empty->filled) or not (filled->filled/empty->empty). Participants' gaze patterns and pupil dilation were measured during the encoding phase and reaction time and accuracy were measured at the outcome.
