EastBio - Uncovering the non-canonical proteolytic activity of Deubiquitinating enzymes

One of the key challenges in molecular biology is understanding how post-translational modifications regulate protein function. Pathogens and cancer cells are highly effective at hijacking these mechanisms to advance their own agendas. Read more
 Supervisors: Dr C Maniaci, Dr P Cossar

EastBio (CASE) - Odour-Based Detection and Discrimination of Microorganisms: Integrating Electronic Nose Technologies with Machine Learning

Planet Earth is estimated to harbour up to one trillion microbial species [1]. Collectively, these microorganisms encode an enormous diversity of genes, many of which produce enzymes with unique metabolic capabilities. Read more

EastBio - Why does the B cell antibody response wane with ageing?

B lymphocytes (B cells) are key cells of the adaptive immune system producing antibodies which bind to pathogens such as viruses and bacteria and targeting them for destruction. Read more

EastBio - Targeting proteasome assembly to uncover cancer vulnerabilities

Cancer cells must continually remove damaged and unwanted proteins to sustain rapid growth and survive cellular stress. This creates a strong dependence on the proteasome, the molecular machinery responsible for much of the cell’s controlled protein degradation. Read more

Development and Application of a Generative 3D Cell Morphable Model for Blood-Cell Morphodynamics

This iCASE project addresses a critical bottleneck in blood-cell morphodynamics. high-throughput blood-smear platforms capture large-scale clinical 2D cell images, but the smearing process physically flattens cells onto glass, destroying the 3D nuclear and cellular geometry that encodes mechanics and cell state.
