Tissue-Specific Vulnerability to Mitochondrial Disease

Mitochondrial diseases are caused by defects in genes required for energy production and oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos). We find it intriguing that some patients with mitochondrial disease present late in life, with very tissue-specific phenotypes. Read more

Integrative single-cell transcriptomic to identify novel mediator of human blood progenitor proliferation

Human pluripotent stem cells are a promising resource for producing specific cell types that can be used for cell therapies. It is still challenging for some cell types to be derived in the laboratory in a reliable and scalable manner, including some blood cell types, such as progenitors and stem cells. Read more

EASTBIO: Employing organoids to investigate the role of PAX6 in neural connectivity during human forebrain development

  Research Group: Centre for Discovery Brain Sciences
The human brain is a complex structure comprised of billions of neurons which must precisely connect to each other forming functional neural circuits to enable normal brain functions. Read more

A Cell Interactome Approach to Model, Characterise and understand Novel Mechanisms of Disease in Progressive Multiple Sclerosis

(co-supervised with A Nicaise and I Mohorianou). Recent work suggests that cellular ageing, known as senescence, of endogenous stem-like cells in the brain may contribute to the chronic inflammation and neurodegeneration seen in people with progressive multiple sclerosis (PMS). Read more

How signals inside the brain make our brains big

The human brain is unique in many ways, but perhaps the most obvious difference compared with other primates is its size. How the human brain gets to be so large during development specifically in humans is a question that has long intrigued neuroscientists but until recently was difficult to study. Read more

Development of AI framework for iPSC image analysis and integration with transcriptomics

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Professor Viji Draviam, Professor of Quantitative Cell and Molecular Biology and Director of Industrial Innovation, School of Biological and Behavioural Science, Queen Mary University London, and Dr Victor Neduva, Senior Director, Genome and Biomarker Sciences, MSD. Read more

Chromatin remodelling complexes in human brain development

Chromatin regulators are a group of proteins that control the way the rest of the genome is opened up and “read” by the cellular machinery, with fundamental roles in development and disease. Read more
