[FSE PhD President's Doctoral Scholarship] Engineering chemical probes to sense dynamic molecular neighbourhoods in living cells

The University of Manchester

Department of Chemistry

How can we measure the fleeting molecular neighbourhoods that control signalling inside living cells?. Proximity-labelling methods provide a powerful way to address this problem by converting spatial proximity into a permanent chemical tag that can subsequently be detected by imaging or proteomics.

(MRC NW-DMS) Mapping the immune-matrix microenvironment in metastatic ovarian cancer

The University of Manchester

Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine

Research Group: Division of Cell Matrix Biology and Regenerative Medicine

High-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC) is the most aggressive ovarian cancer subtype, and metastasis within the peritoneal cavity leads to resistance to therapy and poor patient outcomes. Read more

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL NLD: Myco-membrane physics: Mechanical properties of a unique bacterial outer membrane

Newcastle University

Faculty of Medical Sciences Graduate School

Bacteria are under pressure. A lot of pressure. In fact, the inside of bacteria is so densely packed with biomolecules that some species are under more than 30 atmospheres of pressure pushing outward! To prevent themselves from exploding, bacteria build a rigid structure around themselves called the cell envelope. Read more
