The Role of Microglia & Astrocytes in Neurodegeneration & Neuroprotection following Traumatic Brain Injury
Imperial College London
Department of Surgery & Cancer, Anaesthetics Pain Medicine & Intensive Care Section
The Neurotrauma & Neuroprotection Laboratory uses a variety of in vivo and in vitro techniques to understand the pathophysiology of traumatic brain injury and to evaluate the efficacy of novel treatments for TBI such as noble gases. Read more
The effects of Interleukin-1 primed mesenchymal stem cells on hypoxic-ischemic brain damage
Hypoxic-ischemic brain damage is one of the main causes of death and neurological disability after stroke worldwide. Read more
Musculoskeletal Bioengineering: A Model for Exercise, Injury, Disease and Regeneration
Situated within the world-leading School of Sport, Exercise and Health Sciences at Loughborough University, the research team led by Professor Mark Lewis has over 25+ years of experience in bioengineering of functional tissue engineered musculoskeletal constructs. Read more
An Investigation into the Identification, Validation and Biological Understanding of Biomarkers Post-Spinal Cord Injury
Neurological recovery following spinal cord injury (SCI) can be highly variable. The pathophysiology underpinning this variability is not currently well understood. Read more
Investigating associations between the brain renin angiotensin system and Traumatic Brain Injury
Rationale. In the last decade the involvement of the brain Renin Angiotensin System (RAS) in neurodegenerative disease, particularly Alzheimer’s disease (AD) has come to the fore. Read more
Characterisation of novel inhibitors of vascular injury due to inflammation
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is a haemoprotein that is highly expressed in neutrophils and is secreted during injury and inflammation to assist in host defence reactions by producing antimicrobial reactive oxygen species. Read more
Structural plasticity and regeneration in the Drosophila brain
Does the brain change as we go through life and does this depend on our experiences? What is the impact in the brain of stimulation, activity, exercise… Read more
Beyond head kinematics: a modelling and AI based tool for predicting effects of head impacts on the brain in sporting collisions
Applications are invited for an exciting fully-funded PhD project on computational modelling of brain biomechanics in sporting head collisions, supervised by Dr Ghajari (HEAD lab, Design Engineering, Imperial College), Dr Chris Jones (SWA) and Dr Mike Loosemore (SWA, UCL). Read more
Role of cell death and necroinflammation in pulpal wound healing
Injury to the dental pulp is commonly encountered in clinical practice, but how injury induce inflammation and how the dental pulp heals after injury is not known. Read more
