Procurement as an Innovation Lever for Big Science: Mechanisms, Measurement, and an Agenda for Change

Abstract Public procurement is one of the most direct and traceable channels through which Big Science investments generate wider socio-economic benefit, yet it remains significantly underexploited as an innovation lever. Drawing on the public procurement of innovation (PPI) lite...

Cloud-Native SIG Workshop: Deploying a Web Application with Kubernetes

The academic world is asking for more web-based software to make research more accessible to both researchers and the public. There are many challenges with writing, maintaining and deploying web services, so how, as an RSE can we make this journey easier. Cloud-Native technology...

The Linear Series Decomposition Learner (LSDL): A Multi-Geometric Theory of Signal Structure and Representation

Signal representation underpins modern signal processing, yet many existing methods primarily transform signals into alternative domains without explicitly modelling how informative signal structure evolves during recursive localisation. This paper presents the Linear Series Deco...

Tipping the Scales Using Cryopreservation: Modelling the Genetic Value and Management Potential of Integrated Cryopreservation for Threatened Ex‐Situ Pupfish Populations

ABSTRACT Zoos and aquaria must retain genetic diversity for the species they house if the populations are to remain viable. The cryopreservation and storage of living animal cells is a potential strategy for minimising genetic diversity loss over time, when genetic diversity can...
