AI-PolyRisk - Artificial Intelligence to Prioritize and Identify Polymers as New Emerging Risk Chemicals
Chemicals in products and materials provide large societal and health benefits, however some chemicals are ubiquitous in the environment and some have shown to cause adverse effect...
Unaccounted risk factors for the mobilization and transfer of antibiotic resistance genes from the environmental reservoir to human pathogens
Current strategies for antibiotic resistance stewardship are largely optimized to limit transmission of resistant bacteria, not to limit the emergence of new antibiotic resistance...
Drugs in the wild: Evaluating the impacts of pharmaceutical pollution in aquatic ecosystems, from individuals to animal communities
The increasing release of pharmaceutical pollutants into waterways is now a leading global threat to aquatic wildlife and ecosystems.Despite this, knowledge on the hazards that the...

Exploring the Impact of Hybrid-Remote Working Practices on Security Behaviours and Organisational Culture
The rapid shift towards hybrid-remote working, accelerated by the COVID-19 Pandemic, has fundamentally reshaped organisational working practices and security landscapes. Organisati...
Light-matter interactions in realistic settings: unifying open quantum systems with macroscopic quantum electrodynamics
"The interaction between light and isolated matter (i.e. single atoms) has been studied for decades. It is well understood, but in reality, no system can be truly isolated...
2ndUpChance: A second chance for Upcycling of Microplastics
Microplastics (MPs) are of growing concern to the public because of their potential toxicity and bioaccumulation in living organisms.Given that a large share of MPs pollution is we...
Adult phenology meets offspring thermal performance: are they linked?
Reproductive timing (phenology) and thermal performance are crucial traits for modulating organismal responses to climate change.In seasonal environments, these traits are inherent...
Genome rearrangement drives major phenotypic shifts in toxin-producing cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria can produce metabolites that are toxic to humans and other animals. The most of common of these, microcystin, is produced by the genus Microcystis. In natural populat...
Reimagining Governance for a Flourishing Research Culture
At Durham we are committed to a culture that enables everyone in the research environment to flourish. We have initiated a project called Flourish@Durham to work towards that end.C...
