Bird Blood Biochemistry! This study will explore metabolic pathways in bird red blood cells in the contexts of understanding oxidative stress and novel pest control systems.
Unlike mammals, other vertebrates such as birds have nuclei and mitochondria within their red blood cells, RBCs. The loss of RBC mitochondria in mammals may save oxygen, and / or decrease RBC size to improve oxygen delivery. Read more
MSc By Research: Eyedrop therapy for blinding genetic eye condition, aniridia-associated keratopathy
Aniridia-associated keratopathy (AAK) is a potentially blinding genetic eye disease caused by heterozygous mutation in the eye ‘master regulator gene’, PAX6. Read more

Investigating effects of environmental stressors on ecosystem function using hyperspectral leaf reflectance
There is an increasing urgency to understand the biochemical and physiological responses of plants to global environmental change. Read more
Identification of the role of small nucleolar RNAs in cartilage ageing
University of Liverpool
Institute of Ageing and Chronic Disease Department of Musculoskeletal Biology
To reduce health inequities and improve the lives of older people we need to understand the ageing process at the molecular level. Read more
Hybrid antioxidant nanocarriers for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that yearly affects 50 million people worldwide, a number estimated to grow to 139 million in 2050. Read more
MSc By Research: Investigating the Therapeutic Potential of Synthetic Flavonoids for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), high blood pressure in the lung, is characterized by increased pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMC) in the walls of the blood vessels, raised pulmonary arterial pressure and right ventricular failure (1). Read more
Translational potential of novel mitochondrial-targeted nanoparticles encapsulating hydrogen sulphide as modulators of neurological disease.
Neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s disease occur due to the progressive and irreversible degeneration of nerve cells. Read more
Fully funded PhD studentship in Biomedical Photonics: Near-patient rapid on-chip spectroscopy for the diagnosis of Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome in critically ill patients - a pathway for individualised therapy
Supervisory Team: Prof. Senthil Murugan Ganapathy and Dr. Ahilanandan Dushianthan. Project description. Acute hypoxic respiratory failure is a significant problem in the intensive care unit setting. Read more
Mutation dynamics in intramacrophage bacteria: How a host-microbe interaction affects antimicrobial resistance
Mutations are fundamental for the evolution of all organisms and adaptation to their environment. They emerge due to replication errors, oxidative stress or various mutagenic stressors. Read more
MSc By Research: Profiling of extracellular vesicles derived from Alzheimer’s Disease and control brains
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) transfer DNA, RNA, proteins, lipids, and metabolites from donors to recipients via cell-to-cell communication. Read more

Assessing the Impact of Aggregation-Prone Proteins on the Mitochondrial-Metallome Interplay in a Novel 3D Spheroid Cholinergic Cell Model of Neurodegenerative Disease
Although showing diverse symptoms affecting cognition and movement, the brains of patients with neurodegenerative disorders (NDs) display similar neuropathological features namely protein aggregation within the brain. Read more
Novel hollow-core fibres for mid-infrared laser delivery
Supervisory Team. Dr. Natalie V. Wheeler, Dr. Qiang Fu. Project description. In this project we will develop hollow-core optical fibres (HCFs) for mid-infrared laser delivery. Read more
Regulatory roles for ribosome-associated proteins in protein synthesis
Protein synthesis is a highly-conserved, dynamic and tightly controlled process that is central to the activity of all cells. All phases of translation can be controlled. Read more
