UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: Deciphering S6K2 signalling networks at the interface of plant growth and environmental stress

How do plants decide whether to grow or survive when faced with environmental stress?. Plants constantly adjust their growth and metabolism in response to changing environmental conditions. Read more

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: Mapping translational stress-signalling networks in plant tissues using Bio-orthogonal non-canonical amino acid tagging (BONCAT)

How does a plant coordinate a stress response across distinct cell types, and what signals link them? This project addresses that question using a genuinely new methodological approach. Read more

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: Genetic and environmental factors controlling barley development

CASE Project. Selection of plants for increases in grain size and number is essential to feed the growing world population. These plants will also require increases in stem strength to support the increased weight of the inflorescence, particularly in windy conditions and changes to water availability. Read more

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: Uncovering the hidden laws of grit: novel mechanisms of drug-resistance via ribosome hibernation

  Research Group: Melnikov Lab in collaboration with Dr. Jamie Bojko
When pathogens are assaulted with drugs, they activate various defence mechanisms to stay alive and mitigate drug toxicity. These defence strategies allow pathogenic cells to escape clinical treatment, making drug-resistant infections a leading cause of death around the world. Read more

EASTBIO - The hidden role of acrocentric short arms in genome instability

The short arms of acrocentric chromosomes 13, 14, 15, 21 and 22 are among the least understood regions of the human genome. They consist of highly repetitive DNA (rDNA arrays, satellite repeats and segmental duplications), meaning much of their sequence is missing from canonical references like hg38. Read more

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: Does a common retrotransposon insertion accelerate organ ageing? Mechanistic characterisation of an APOLD1-linked regulatory variant

Roughly half of your genome is made up of "jumping genes" called transposable elements, and LINE 1 (L1) is the only one still capable of copying itself into new locations in living humans. Read more

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: From condensates to infection: spatial phase behaviour of aggresomes in pathogenic Escherichia coli

How do bacteria reorganise their internal molecular machinery within the complex environments of a biofilm or an infected host? This PhD will investigate remarkable bacterial “aggresomes” – dynamic biomolecular organelle condensates of protein and mRNA that form without surrounding membranes and are associated with stress tolerance, dormancy and antibiotic persistence (PMIDs.

UKRI BBSRC NEEDL DLA: Getting Sox on to regulate cell number and organ size

Sox (SRY-related HMG-box) transcription factors (TFs) play key decision-making roles during many important processes in animals, including stem cell maintenance, cell proliferation and organ growth. Read more
