Natural toxins and their synthetic analogues as tools to study ion channels and as potential drugs and pesticides

The project will use a combination of electrophysiological techniques such as voltage-clamp and patch-clamp with molecular biology and protein expression to understand how natural toxins and their synthetic analogues act on ion channels in the nervous system. Read more

The cost of highly hazardous pesticide self-poisoning in India

Over 700,000 people die by suicide annually and 80% of these deaths occurring in low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Suicide by pesticide ingestion is the second most common means of suicide globally - 10-20% of all suicide deaths are by pesticide self-poisoning. Read more

Establishing a Chitin Synthesis Reporter Assay for Pesticide Research

Agriculture is reliant on the chemical control of insect pests and fungal pathogens to ensure crop productivity. However, in recent years there has been an increase in resistance to chemical control amongst pest populations, leading to a loss of efficacy of previously effective control measures. Read more
