Analysing Genetic Variation in Ebolaviruses and Cancer Cell Lines : Supplemetary Tables for Annexes 2 and 3
In this supplementary materials folder you can find the Supplementary tables of Annex 2 and 3 that are cited but not included in the main document. The name of each archive is the same as the table cited in the document, and they are stored in two different folders, each of them corresponding to the Annex of their names
Decision responsiveness and the legitimacy of public agencies data set
The data were collected in relation to the following goals:
The research was designed to identify some of the key factors driving assessments of the legitimacy of decision-making agencies. The research was based on a set of (vignette-based) experiments that allowed the researchers to identify the effects on legitimacy of various aspects of decision-making responsiveness. Participants (N=438) were drawn from Prolific Academic, and completed an online survey fielded on Qualtrics. Assignment to treatment groups was randomised

Data associated with the paper Antczak et al. "Environmental conditions shape the nature of a minimal bacterial genome" published in Nature Communications 2019
Of the 473 genes in the genome of the bacterium with the smallest genome generated to date, 149 genes have unknown function, emphasising a universal problem; less than 1% of proteins have experimentally determined annotations. Here, we combine the results from state-of-the-art in silico methods for functional annotation and assigned functions to 66 of the 149 proteins. Proteins that are still not be annotated lack orthologs, lack protein domains, and/ or are membrane proteins. Twenty-four likely transporter proteins are identified indicating the importance of nutrient uptake into and waste disposal out of the minimal bacterial cell in a nutrient-rich environment after removal of metabolic enzymes. Hence, the environment shapes the nature of a minimal genome. Our findings also show that the combination of multiple different state-of-the-art in silico methods for annotating proteins is able to predict functions, even for difficult to characterise proteins and identify crucial gaps for further development
Machine Space: videos to accompany the thesis 'The spatial cinema: an encounter between Lefebvre and the moving image'
Machine Space is an essay film that explores the city of Detroit as a space of movement and circulation. This city is negotiated in the moving image as a palimpsest of maps, spatial metrics and automotive infrastructure; illustrating the material and discursive layers that have constructed this now post-industrial metropolis. This is a city where, in the words of the urban thinker Henri Lefebvre,
'the production of space itself replaces - or, rather, is superimposed upon - the production of things in space.' (Lefebvre 1991, p.62)
This practice-as-research doctoral project explores an interface of Lefebvre's 'production of space' with the cinema; as visual artefact, a phenomenological document; and as media exhibited in a screening space. The result is a productive discourse of 'Spatial Cinema.

ORCID EPrints Implementation - dataset
A survey canvassing user requirements for integration of EPrints software with the ORCID service was circulated to four mailing lists. Although the target audience was the UK EPrints user community, the survey was open to anyone, so included a number of international responses. This dataset includes an anonymised version of the download of results from Bristol Online Surveys and a copy of the survey form
Structural Priming in Dialogues between Native and Non-native Speakers
This study extends the logic of prior studies showing phonetic convergence between speakers in dialogue to the structural domain. We ask whether listeners’ adaptation of the syntactic forms they produce depends on their perceptions about their interlocutor’s social proximity and linguistic competence, using structural priming as a measure convergence. Three experiments compared structural priming in conversations between (i) pairs of native speakers of British English, (ii) native and non-native speakers, and (iii) native speakers of different varieties of English (British and North American; Lancashire and South East), to assess to what extent interlocutor characteristics influence convergence or divergence of syntactic forms in dialogue. Our findings suggest that rates of structural convergence depend both on a speaker’s pre-existing structural bias for a particular verb, and their perception of (linguistic or social) similarity to their interlocutor. This suggests an interplay between low-level, automatic mechanisms underlying structural convergence and higher-level reasoning about how interlocutors are socially situated with respect to each other
