Multilevel selection on transposition rates in cancer

Cancer is an evolutionary process. Cells in a tumour vary due to mutation, and so over many generations they adapt in response to both intrinsic selective pressures (such as anoxia) and extrinsic selective pressures (such as chemotherapy). Read more

Testing the evolutionary theory of ageing: from genes to populations (MAKLAKOV_UBIO25ARIES)

Scientific background  . Why do organisms age? Classical resource allocation-based theory of ageing – the so-called ‘disposable soma’ (DST) – has been challenged by empirical studies and can no longer fully account for the experimental observations. Read more

Bioinformatics analyses of microbial communities and their genetic contents to understand the transmission dynamics and selection of antimicrobial resistance

Project Overview. Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) is one of the topics that we cannot ignore. Bacterial infections unsuccessfully treated due to AMR claim at least 700 000 lives per year worldwide and are projected to be associated with the deaths of 10 million people per year by 2050. Read more

Genomics of mimicry in Neotropical catfishes (TAYLORM_UBIO25ARIES)

Scientific background the wider context; why the project is important and timely . Mimetic relationships - where two or more species share colour patterns to reduce attacks by predators are some of the most powerful demonstrations of natural selection. Read more

How do RNA-binding proteins control splice site selection? A multi-disciplinary approach

Almost every protein-coding gene in vertebrates can and does express multiple proteins. This is achieved primarily by RNA splicing, which is an essential step in gene expression in mammals and generates incredible diversity. Read more

Optimising dynamic scheduling in smart manufacturing through reinforcement learning PhD

This PhD aims to develop an adaptive self-organising solution for dynamic scheduling in job-shop manufacturing. The research will introduce an innovative approach that integrates deep reinforcement learning and multi-agent systems to rapidly respond to emergencies and disruptions. Read more
