EASTBIO (CASE): Computational Genetics and Advanced Statistical Analysis of Noise Fear in Pet Dogs

University of Edinburgh
Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies (College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine)
Dogs have better hearing than humans and are very sensitive to noise. Fear of loud noises, including fireworks, is known to affect a large proportion of pet dogs and is detrimental to dog welfare, leading to responses such as trembling, panting and hiding. Read more

(MCRC Clinical) From niche to clone: linking stromal–immune ecosystems to metastatic evolution in penile cancer

The University of Manchester
Division of Cancer Sciences
Penile squamous cell carcinoma is a rare cancer in which spread to the lymph nodes is the major determinant of survival. Yet we still cannot reliably identify which primary tumours will metastasise, meaning many patients undergo invasive nodal staging without metastatic disease being found. Read more
