  • Impact factors—a critique 
    Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Collegium Basilea & AMSI, 2009)
    The so-called impact factor (IF) started as a rather esoteric scientometric tool, itself derived from the science citation index (SCI), which originated with Eugene Garfield in the 1950s. The IF of a journal for ...
  • The impact of Zero-valent Iron Nanoparticles upon Soil Microbial Communities is Context Dependent 
    Pawlett, Mark; Ritz, Karl; Dorey, Robert A.; Rocks, Sophie A.; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Harris, Jim A. (Ecomed Publishers, 2013-02-01)
    Purpose Nanosized zero valent iron (nZVI) is an effective land remediation tool, but there remains little information regarding its impact upon and interactions with the soil microbial community. Methods nZVI stabilised ...
  • In situ observation of the evolution of porous silicon interference filter characteristics. 
    Volk, J.; Ferencz, K.; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Tóth, A. L.; Bársony, I. (Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 2005-06)
    Porous silicon multilayer formation was observed by in situ monitoring of the reflectivity spectra in the visible range. In order to reproduce the formation process optical model simulation was carried out. For demonstration ...

    Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Association of Modern Scientific Investigation, 2010-09-30)
  • Influence of implant surface modification on integration with bone tissue 
    Kutsevlyak, V. I.; Starikova, S. L.; Starikov, V. V.; Mamalis, A. G.; Lavrynenko, S. N.; Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Jointly by, Collegium Basilea (Institute of Advanced Study) and Association of Modern Scientific Investigation., 2008)
    Problems connected with the improvement of medical implant fixation in bone tissue are addressed by the formation of a highly developed surface and by the activation of the implant surface with an electret coating. The ...
  • Integrated optical devices using bacteriorhodopsin as active nonlinear optical material 
    Dér, A.; Fábián, L.; Valkai, S.; Wolff, E.; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Ormos, P. (2006-08-15)
    Coupling of optical data-processing devices with microelectronics, telecocommunication and sensory functions, is among the biggest challenges in molecular electronics. Intensive research is going on to find suitable ...
  • Integrated qualitativeness in design by multi-objective optimization and interactive evolutionary computation. 
    Brintrup, Alexandra Melike; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Tiwari, Ashutosh (2005-09-01)
    Abstract- The concept of qualitativeness in design is an important one, and needs to be incorporated in the optimization process for a number of reasons outlined in this paper. Interactive Evolutionary Computation and ...
  • Inversion of values? 
    Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Collegium Basilea & AMSI, 2005-09)
    Editorial
  • Lag phases in the adsorption of lysozyme to Si(Ti)O2 surfaces in the presence of sodium thiocyanate. Part I. Phenomenology. 
    Ball, Vincent; Lustig, Ariel; Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Royal Society of Chemistry, 1999)
    The adsorption kinetics of hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) in the presence of NaSCN at pH 7.4 onto Si0.8Ti0.2O2 surfaces were measured by means of time-resolved optical waveguide lightmode spectroscopy (OWLS). The adsorption ...
  • Myelin basic protein peptide 45–89 induces the release of nitric oxide from microglial cells. 
    Shanshiashvili, L.; Pichkhadze, B.; Machaidze, G.; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Mikeladze, D. (Jointly by, Collegium Basilea (Institute of Advanced Study) and Association of Modern Scientific Investigation., 2002-06)
    Continuous (24 h) exposure of mixed oligodendrocyte/microglial cells to peptides 45–89 derived from citrullinated C8 isoforms of myelin basic protein (MBP) induces cell death. In contrast, MBP-C8 at the same molecular ...
  • Nano-assembled thin film gas sensors. 1. Ammonia detection by a porphyrin-based multilayer film. 
    Korposh, Serhiy O.; Takahara, Naoki; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Lee, Seung-Woo; Kunitake, Toyoki (Association of Modern Scientific Investigation, 2006-09)
    A thin film of porphyrin deposited by the layer-by-layer method is employed as the active element for an optical sensor. The usefulness of this film technology and the resulting nanoscale matrix for the detection of ...
  • A novel concept for the manufacture of individual sapphire-metallic hip joint endoprostheses. 
    Mamalis, A. G.; Ramsden, Jeremy J.; Grabchenko, A. I.; Lytvynov, L. A.; Filipenko, V. A.; Lavrynenko, S. N. (Jointly by, Collegium Basilea (Institute of Advanced Study) and Association of Modern Scientific Investigation., 2006-09)
    At the present time, artificial joints made with metallic, ceramic, metal-polymeric or ceramicpolymeric friction pairs substituting for the natural biomechanic articulations "head of the hip joint-acetabulum" are widely ...
  • On adsorption-induced denaturation of folded proteins. 
    Fernández, Ariel; Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Jointly by, Collegium Basilea (Institute of Advanced Study) and Association of Modern Scientific Investigation., 2001-12)
    In the absence of intramolecular long range interactions, the extended local conformation of a peptide chain is entropically favoured over compact ones, since the area of the Ramachandran basin of attraction is larger ...

  • Professionalism in science 
    Ramsden, Jeremy J. (Collegium Basilea & AMSI, 2009)
    In everyday speech, the word “professional” has an ambiguous ring, applied to one who follows, by way of profession, what is ordinarily regarded as a pastime (e.g., a sport), or disparagingly applied to one who “makes ...
