    No full text
    In this author interview, we speak to Dr Ian Sanjay Patel about his new book, We’re Here Because You Were There: Immigration and the End of Empire, which explores post-war immigration laws, the afterlives of British imperial citizenship and related attempts to reimagine and rejuvenate British imperialism after 1945. Contributing to transnational histories of decolonisation, the book also explores the interconnections between human rights, post-war migration and international diplomacy. Author Interview with Dr Ian Sanjay Patel, author of We’re Here Because You Were There: Immigration and the End of Empire. Verso. 2021

    Immunologic effects on the haematopoietic stem cell in marrow failure

    No full text
    Acquired bone marrow failure (BMF) syndromes comprise a diverse group of diseases with variable clinical manifestations but overlapping features of immune activation, resulting in haematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC) damage and destruction. This review focuses on clinical presentation, pathophysiology, and treatment of four BMF: acquired aplastic anaemia, large granular lymphocytic leukaemia, paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria, and hypoplastic myelodysplastic syndrome. Autoantigens are speculated to be the inciting event that result in immune activation in all of these diseases, but specific pathogenic antigens have not been identified. Oligoclonal cytotoxic T cell expansion and an active role of proinflammatory cytokines, primarily interferon γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), are two main contributors to HSPC growth inhibition and apoptosis in BMF. Emerging evidence also suggests involvement of the innate immune system

    The Patel trials: further evidence of the need to reform the Griffith Codes

    No full text
    This article argues that the two trials of Dr Jayant Patel for criminal medical negligence under s 288 of the Criminal Code 1899 Act (Qld) highlight the inadequacies of the duty provisions in the Griffith Codes of Queensland and Western Australia. The difficulties with these duty provisions extend beyond causation and go to the heart of the construction of the Griffith Codes. The fundamental problem lies in the wording of s 23 of both the Queensland and the Western Australia Codes, the principal section dealing with criminal responsibility, which allows a prosecution for criminal negligence under two alternative routes with different standards of proof, and the importation of common law criminal negligence into the duty provisions in the absence of a specified fault element in the relevant Code sections. It is further contended that other criminal law jurisdictions in Australia, such as the Criminal Code 1995 (Cth), offer a better model for the prosecution of criminal negligence cases that flow from breach of a specified duty. The article has greatly benefited from comments provided to the author by Justice HG Fryberg, who conducted the second Patel trial

    Abstract Researchers have used machine learning algorithms to solve hard problems in a variety of domains, enabling exciting, new applications of computing. However, research results have not transferred to software solutions. In part, this is because developing software with machine learning algorithms is itself difficult. My dissertation work aims to understand why using machine learning is difficult and to create tools that lower the bar so that more developers can effectively use machine learning
