Sleep after catastrophic injury
Project ID. S3 3. It is well established that sleep has both a protective and recuperative effect in healthy adults. The benefits of sleeping well for those recovering from life-threatening or life-changing injury are much less well established, in part because the evidence based is very limited. Read more
Sleep and early parenting: "Parenting advice, identities: and contemporary parenting cultures"
The Faculty of Natural Sciences at Keele University is inviting applications for a fully funded studentship to study the impact of sleep and sleep deprivation on new parents. Read more
MScR - Determining the genetic and circadian basis of bipolar disorder using Drosophila
Circadian rhythms and sleep are evolutionarily conserved from fruit flies (Drosophila) and are fundamental as well as vital to biology and health (Jagannath et al., 2017; Menet and Rosbash, 2011). Read more
Role of the endosomal pathway in regulating sleep and circadian rhythms
Ageing and many neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by a progressive loss of neurons in particular brain regions leading to behavioural changes including cognitive decline, sleep disruption and circadian dysregulation. Read more
Dynamic lighting intervention to reduce falls and improve health in care home residents
Falls are the leading cause of injury-related death in adults aged 65 or older. The additional economic impact of falls is immense. Read more
Understanding how altered GABA signalling in the brain's master clock contributes to circadian rhythm disruption in Alzheimer's disease
Our circadian clock is one of the most important timing systems in our body, ensuring that neuronal activity throughout our CNS is appropriately aligned with our homeostatic, physiological, and behavioural needs across the day. Read more
MScR - In vivo characterisation of novel risk genes for Alzheimers disease identified by Genome Wide Association Studies
Genome Wide Association Studies (GWAS) for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) have identified a number of genes that are significantly associated with the disease (van der Kant et al., 2019). Read more
Improving the health and wellbeing of hard-to-reach families through Happy Homework: A Scottish curriculum-focussed home-based health intervention. (VC23001)
24-hour recommendations outline that for children to attain optimal health, they should achieve high levels of physical activity, low levels of sedentary behaviour, and sufficient sleep, yet most young people fail to meet all three guidelines. Read more

PHD / MSCR PROJECT: How neurones engage astrocytes in network activity
It is now firmly established that in the mammalian brain neuronal networks cannot successfully perform their functions without concomitant metabolic and signalling support from the adjacent glial cells, called astrocytes. Read more
Dynamic aquaporin-4 subcellular relocalisation in regulating brain fluid homeostasis
Aquaporins facilitate passive, bidirectional water transport in all cells and tissues. In the brain and spinal cord, aquaporin-4 facilitates the exchange of water across the blood-spinal cord and blood-brain barriers, controlling cell volume, extracellular space volume and astrocyte migration. Read more
