Painting the brain: multiplexed tissue labelling of human brain tissue to facilitate discoveries in neuroanatomy
Multiplex labelling technology that generates spatial maps of large numbers of proteins can facilitate discoveries in neuroanatomy and the study of neurodegenerative diseases.
Decoding the work-from-home phenomenon: insights from location-based service data
The global pandemic has catalysed a shift in the job market, with remote work evolving from being an option to a widespread practice.
Benefits of linking routine medical records to the GUiNZ longitudinal birth cohort: Childhood injury predictors
Combining self-reported longitudinal cohort data with routine healthcare data can help mitigate the limitations of each data type. Linking these datasets addresses missing data issues, reduces recall and information biases, and validates both data sources.
Mapping livability: the “15-minute city” concept for car-dependent districts in Auckland, New Zealand
The research critically examines the potential of micro-mobility options, such as e-scooters and e-bikes, to significantly expand zones deemed ‘livable’ for the study sites.
VRhook: A Data Collection Tool for VR Motion Sickness Research
VR gaming has been gaining widespread popularity in recent years. However, up to 40% of users suffer from VR motion sickness. The adverse effects can severely undermine the user experience. Recently, researchers have proposed the use of machine learning approaches to identify the presence of motion sickness.
Ahuahu Great Mercury Island Online Database
The Archaeology eResearch Collaboration Initiative (ARCI) is a research group specialising in the management and analysis of data intensive archaeology. In tandem with the Centre for eResearch, we are currently trialling the CollectiveAccess deployment to collaboratively record, manage, and explore archaeological data and metadata relating to the Ahuahu Great Mercury Island project.
Travelling Heads – Measuring Reproducibility and Repeatability of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Dementia
Approximately 50 million people are living with dementia worldwide, and in New Zealand, 1.4% of the population have Alzheimer’s disease or related dementia. With an ageing population, the prevalence is predicted to double by 2050
Novel Subject-Specific Method of Visualising Group Differences from Multiple DTI Metrics without Averaging
