Investigating the metabolic response of low and high dietary vitamin A intake in humans using cell and mammal models
Introduction: Nutrients we consume from food have many important biological roles in relation to growth, development and ageing in humans. Read more
EPSRC supported EngD: Developing digital tools for sustainable surface cleaning towards net zero solutions
Surface cleaning is a key and fundamental process in many domestic and industrial applications. Despite considerable amount of research on cleaning, there exists some knowledge gaps about the microscale interactions between cleaning agents and foulants on the surface. Read more
An exploration of responders and non-responders to New Zealand blackcurrant intake on metabolic and cardiovascular responses
Use of dietary supplements as ergogenic aids is common among athletes to support training and enhance performance (Maughan et al 2011). Read more
Investigation of myocardial ischemic adaptation in the presence of comorbidity factors on in vitro cell culture models
Metabolic derangements, such as obesity or diabetes, are major risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. Read more
Cardiovascular and Neuromuscular Functions around the Clock: Harnessing Protective Endogenous Mechanisms towards Smarter Design of Novel Therapies and Interventions
Optimal tissue and organ is essential for long-term health and quality of life. One such important regulator within the body is related to circadian rhythms, which control ~24h cycles in many physiological processes such as sleep/wake cycles, physical activity/rest cycles, drug metabolism and hormones.

mRNA epigenetics: Charaterization of a novel layer of gene regulation for essential brain functions
For over 40 years we know about modified nucleotides in mRNA, but the functions for these essential modifications are largely elusive. Read more
Examining the mechanisms that cause cardiovascular disease by studying the heart or adipose tissue
Heart failure has a serious impact on our society and once diagnosed has a poor survival rate. In the United Kingdom, there are about 1.5 million people living with the after-effects of a heart attack. Read more
