Gene Regulation in Cancer Metastasis
A PhD project in Gene Regulation in Cancer Metastasis is available in the laboratory of Dr Fiona Wardle (. https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/wardle-group. Read more
Use it or lose it: what determines the regulation mode of a given gene?
All organisms must tightly control gene expression. In bacteria, gene regulation is mediated by either an activator or a repressor which binds DNA to turn a gene on or off, respectively. Read more
Antimicrobial resistance and gene regulation in Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli.
Enteroaggregative Escherichia coli (EAEC) is a major cause of diarrhoeal disease in industrialized and non-industrialized countries and has been shown to be the cause of travellers’ diarrhoea and persistent diarrhoea in children and HIV patients. Read more
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
PhD Student Position – Gene Regulation in Stem Cell Biology and Brain Development
The project will involve utilizing mouse models to dissect gene regulatory mechanisms that control neural stem cell development. Read more
Understanding regulation of gene expression during development via an integrated computational analysis of ‘omics data
Embryonic development requires exquisite control of the expression of large numbers of genes, integrating components from the genome, transcriptome and proteome. 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
Deciphering the regulation of NKX2-5, a key transcription factor in heart development, to uncover the fundamental mechanisms of cardiac cell development from stem cells
Our understanding of cardiac cell development remains incomplete, specifically how the progenitor cells, which give rise to the heart, are programmed to acquire cardiac potential. Read more
MSc by Research: Regulation of the stability of the Notch intracellular domain in iPS derived presomitic mesoderm cells
Notch is one of the major highly conserved signalling pathways that regulate cell-cell communication which involves gene regulation mechanisms that control multiple processes during development and adult life. Read more
Development of a multi-gene detection model for Chinese Luminal-type early breast cancer and its clinical translational study on the predictive value of breast cancer recurrence risk
Supervisors. Principal supervisor. Professor/Dr Jia Meng (XJTLU). Co-supervisor. Professor/Dr Xinghong Luo (JITRI). Co-supervisor. Read more
Metal and the human microbiota – acquisition and regulation of a prokaryotic specific metal
Metal ions are vital for microbial metabolism. As enzyme cofactors, metals enable the use of energy sources often not accessible to the host, generate nutrients/energy sources for other microbes, and provide defense against molecular stresses. Read more
Partitioning primary and secondary changes of gene expression caused by gene mutations
Control of gene expression is a complex cell process, which involves balancing both the synthesis and the degradation of RNA and protein so as to establish optimal levels of each protein. Read more
MSc by Research: Does CDK1 regulate NICD turnover in a cell cycle dependant manner in Drosophila Melanogaster?
Notch is one of the major highly conserved signalling pathways that regulate cell-cell communication which involves gene regulation mechanisms that control multiple processes during development and adult life, including cell fate specification within progenitors. Read more
Defining the Epigenome in Tendon Ageing
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
One hallmark of ageing is the accumulation of epigenetic alterations. There is a clear link between age and increasing incidence of tendon injury suggesting that the mechanical integrity of tendon declines with age. Read more
RNA biology in neurodegeneration (Berlin, Germany)
We are currently seeking a highly motivated individual to join our team in investigating the role of RNA metabolism in motor neuron disorders (MNDs). Read more
