SELF-FUNDED MSC BY RESEARCH: ABCC9 mutations and risk of sudden cardiac death
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is an important clinical problem and has a lasting impact on relatives of the deceased, particularly when sudden death occurs… Read more
Metabolic reprogramming in cancer: starving tumors of essential nutrients to promote cell death
All the cells in our bodies are programmed to die. As they get older, our cells accumulate toxic molecules that make them sick. In response, they eventually break down and die, clearing the way for new, healthy cells to grow. Read more
Cancer: Inhibiting cell metabolism to enhance tumour cell death
All the cells in our bodies are programmed to die. As they get older, our cells accumulate toxic molecules that make them sick. In response, they eventually break down and die, clearing the way for new, healthy cells to grow. Read more
How does SUMOylation regulate cell survival and death in Heat Shock Response?
Heat shock response (HSR) is a universally existing essential phenomenon for all living organisms to survive sudden increases in environmental temperature that have pronounced damaging effects on important cellular structures and functions (1). Read more
Epigenetic regulation in heart failure and cardiac sudden death
A large proportion of heart failure patients die from cardiac sudden death (SCD), a direct result of lethal ventricular arrhythmias, which is the principal cause of mortality from heart disease worldwide and remains a major unresolved public health problem. Read more
Determining novel molecular regulators of necrosis controlling premature cell death
Necrosis, a form of premature cell death, is frequently caused by excessive insults such as trauma, infection and toxins. It has been implicated in many human diseases including cancer, neurodegenerative disorders and inflammatory diseases. Read more
A clinical study of the impact of seizures and epilepsy surgery on pattern separation memory that combines computational modeling, histopathology, and behavioural analyses.
Our ability to remember ‘where I put my car keys today’ as opposed to ‘where I put them yesterday’ depends on a computational process known as pattern separation. Read more
PhD in Geology - Shocking details about the death of the dinosaurs from alkali feldspars
Aims. The impact of a ~12 km diameter asteroid sixty-six million years ago caused one of the most devastating mass extinctions in Earth history. Read more
The cost of highly hazardous pesticide self-poisoning in India
Over 700,000 people die by suicide annually and 80% of these deaths occurring in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Suicide by pesticide ingestion is the second most common means of suicide globally - 10-20% of all suicide deaths are by pesticide self-poisoning. Read more
Haematology: Oncogenic reprogramming of immune cells; novel mechanism for drug resistance in leukaemia
Under pathogenic challenges, cells of the haematopoietic system become epigenetically reprogrammed and establish immune memory. Read more
Identifying focal points and functional relevance of host-microbe communication during tissue injury and repair
Research Group:
Edinburgh Infectious Diseases
Project offered for Ker Memorial PhD Studentship in Infectious Diseases. Tissue repair is critical for a eukaryotic host to return to homeostasis following acute injuries. Read more
St George’s, University of London PhD Studentships programme
We are excited to announce a new PhD programme at St George's, University of London for 2023. The new programme offers up to 4 studentships, from a range of projects covering a number of research disciplines across. Read more
Investigating the radiobiology of protons and BNCT in head and neck tumour treatment
Background. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the 6th most common cancer worldwide with an annual incidence of ~800,000 cases/year. Read more
Refractory properties of myocardial borderzone in the human ventricle
Sudden cardiac death is the mechanism of death in more than 50% of cardiovascular related deaths and is frequently due to ventricular arrhythmias (VA).1 The most common mechanism underlying VA is reentry, whereby one or more self-sustaining wavefronts of electrical activation result in extreme tachycardias associated with cardiac arrest. Read more
(EPSRC DTP) Synthetic extracellular matrices for human pluripotent stem cells differentiation and maturation into cardiomyocytes
The regenerative properties of the heart are very limited making cell death ensuing myocardial infarction a very challenging clinical outcome. Read more
