Neural Mechanisms Supporting Default Mode Network Regulation of Pain Sensitivity
… suggests a possible role for the default mode network (DMN) both in pain and pain sensitivity. The present thesis aimed to determine the underlying neural mechanisms of DMN involvement in pain and whether the DMN contributes to inter-individual differences in pain sensitivity. Relationships …

Identifying tightly regulated and variably expressed networks by differential rank conservation (DIRAC)
… into an analysis of comparative biological network behaviors. One of the limitations of previous network analyses is that they do not take into account the combinatorial nature of gene interactions within the network. We report here a new technique, Differential Rank Conservation (DIRAC), …

Regulated generation allocation and operation optimization for networks with new variable independent power production and self-generation
… or self-generation (SG) proliferate on power networks, questions arise about their impact on the financial integrity of the traditional power distribution business. As distribution companies (DISCOs) act to protect their own financial interests, network access barriers will be presented to …

The Structure and Nature of Vertical Co-ordination and Regulation Systems in the Kenyan Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Export Value Chain: Transaction Cost Approach
… smallholders’ entry and stay in the value chain. Regulation was found to be through three pathways including; exporters-farmers, state regulatory and network regulation pathways. Importantly, the study found that responsive regulation was central to exporters and farmers compliance with regulation.

Investigating the cell surface code for compartment boundary formation in Drosophila embryos
… early embryo and iii) are under pair-rule gene network regulation. I then undertook an in situ hybridisation screen to ask which of the candidate genes were expressed in stripes that border PSBs. For this work I took advantage of in situ Hybridisation Chain Reaction (HCR) methods, which allowed …

Horizontal integration under yardstick competition
… economic importance, such as energy and water networks, the welfare effects of horizontal integration in these settings have largely escaped scientific scrutiny. The dissertation therefore studies the welfare implications of horizontal integration under yardstick competition and identifies …
