The Environmental Drivers of DNA methylation and Senescence: An Experimental Test in Wild Mice

  Research Group: Institute of Ecology & Evolution
Summary. Why do we senesce? Lifestyle appears to accelerate the ageing process in humans, but we know much less about the stressors that cause age-related declines in wild animals. Read more

NERC E4 The Environmental Drivers of DNA methylation and Senescence: An Experimental Test in Wild Mice

  Research Group: Institute of Ecology & Evolution
Summary. Why do we senesce? Lifestyle appears to accelerate the ageing process in humans, but we know much less about the stressors that cause age-related declines in wild animals. Read more

Precision Medicine DTP - Could disrupted functional connectivity between the hippocampus and the prefrontal cortex be an early marker of vascular cognitive impairment in dementia?

  Research Group: Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
Additional supervisor. Prof Simon Hanslmayr [University of Glasgow]. Background. The healthy blood-brain barrier (BBB) maintains selective permeability and controls cerebral blood flow to ensure efficient energy supply, prompt waste removal, and balance chemical composition in the interstitial fluid.

MSc By Research: Using hypomethylating agents to prevent respiratory infections in older adults

The MSc by Research programme at the University of Aberdeen is for students interested in a research-intensive master's degree. It is designed specifically to enhance your skills for a PhD or research career. Read more

Host microbe cross talk in the intestine in health and disease

The gastrointestinal (GI) tract is home to trillions of commensal bacteria (microbiota) that play an integral role in the maintenance of intestinal homeostasis through continuous and complex bidirectional interactions with the host mucosal immune system. Read more

The Role of Reactive Sulfur Species in the Ageing Heart

Second Supervisor. Prof Melanie Madhani, University of Birmingham. Background . Ageing is a natural and complex biological process that involves the gradual deterioration of cells, tissues, and organ systems over time, thus leading to an increased susceptibility to diseases and mortality. Read more

NERC E4 It’s about time! Ecology and evolution of circadian and seasonal rhythms in host-parasite interactions

  Research Group: Institute of Ecology & Evolution
Summary. In adverse circumstances – such as infections and resource limitation - daily rhythms are often disrupted. The project will investigate to what degree this an adaptive (fitness maximising) strategy. Read more

Ageing and body clock rhythms: The importance of a social network.

It is popularly accepted that maintaining an active social life is paramount for good health and longevity. In its absence, social isolation and loneliness can elevate risk of disease and shorten lifespan. Read more
