MRC NW-DMS DLA programme: Longitudinal Ultrasound AI for Identifying High-Risk Fetal Growth Trajectories

Ultrasound is routinely used to monitor fetal growth throughout pregnancy. Clinical concern is usually greatest when a fetus becomes very small, but a more difficult problem occurs when a fetus remains above conventional thresholds while its growth gradually slows across repeated scans. Read more

How can DNA condensate despite its negative charge? Implications in genome regulation, antibiotic resistance and gene therapy

  Research Group: Physics of Life
DNA molecules, being highly negatively charged, naturally repel each other. However, in the presence of multivalent ions or specific proteins, they can overcome this repulsion and condense into compact structures. Read more
