Assessing neurotoxicity of insecticides using patterns of brain activity

University of Reading

Department of Biomedical Engineering

Project Overview. This work furthers our understanding of how chemicals can cause toxicity in the brain, with an efficient approach to screen compounds for neuroactivity and distinguish between compound effects on firing, bursting, and connectivity patterns. Read more

Do common ancient gene regulatory programmes govern both neural and pancreatic fates throughout vertebrate evolution?

University of Warwick

Midlands Integrative Biosciences Training Partnership

Vertebrate development depends on precise regulation of genes that specify cell identity. Many developmental transcription factor (TF) genes are controlled by highly conserved non-coding elements (HCNEs), regulatory DNA sequences preserved across hundreds of millions of years of vertebrate evolution.

Structure and dynamics of the intrinsically disordered regions of the RNA binding protein Sam68: implication for RNA binding and phosphorylation.

University of Leicester

College of Life Sciences

Research Group: Molecular & Cell Biology

Intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of protein play crucial roles in almost all cellular functions. Still, the molecular mechanisms that govern their functions remains largely unknown. Read more

(MCRC Non-Clinical) Metabolic Drivers of Leukaemia Pathogenesis and Therapy Resistance

The University of Manchester

Division of Cancer Sciences

Chronic myelomonocytic leukaemia (CMML) is an aggressive myeloid blood cancer defined by expansion of malignant monocytes. Hypomethylating agents (HMAs), such as azacitidine and decitabine, are the only standard-of-care disease-modifying therapies, but 50–70% of patients fail to respond. Read more
