Research from Queen Mary University of London explores how combining learner autonomy with student-led enquiry can create a more engaging and collaborative experience for international students learning academic English. What happens when students are given more say in what they learn, how they learn it and which questions they want ... [more]
From ballet studio to behavioural science: researchers uncover the best view for learning choreography. New research from Queen Mary University of London finds that less experienced dancers learn choreography more effectively when they follow a teacher's movements from the same perspective, with implications far beyond dance. A groundbreaking study led ... [more]
New analysis of almost 300,000 kilometres of Roman roads reveals a complex network shaped by people, places and landscapes, in which Rome was less central than is often assumed. A multidisciplinary team of researchers from Aarhus University in Denmark, Queen Mary University of London, and other European institutions analysed a dataset ... [more]
Study reveals how specialised tendon cells respond to changes in their physical environment, opening new possibilities for future research into tendon health and repair. Researchers at Queen Mary University of London are now closer to understanding tendinopathy, a common condition that can cause persistent pain and impaired movement in people ... [more]
A recent article by Anna Maltsev, Reader in Applied Probability in the Centre for Complex Systems, and colleagues at the National Institute on Aging in Baltimore (Maryland, USA) was featured on the cover of Circulation Research.
