Research interests
I am currently doing a PhD in Music and am studying how computer software may help a composer to be creative.
My previous research interests were in the synaptic plasticity in sympathetic ganglia and the retina, the body's response to orthopaedic metals from joint replacements and the mechanisms for the fetal origins of adult disease.

Description
Alumina Oxide particulates are generally less genotoxic than Cobalt Chrome alloy particulates when tested in vitro. However, the smaller size of Alumina wear particles from THAs may cause mechanical disruptions…Managing organisational unit
