Regulation of variant antigen gene expression in African trypanosomes
We investigate the molecular biology of African trypanosomes, with a particular focus on the epigenetic control of gene expression. Trypanosomes are… Read more
Self funded BMS Project : A nuclear enterprise: characterisation of an antigen expression factory for immune evasion in African trypanosomes
Applications accepted for PhD Only. Antigenic variation is a highly sophisticated virulence mechanism. Several pathogens, such as African trypanosomes and malaria parasites, are able to systematically alter the identity of proteins displayed to the host immune system. Read more
Ubiquitin-like modifications underlying Cell Differentiation and Biology in Trypanosomes
Post-translational protein modifications are major regulators of eukaryotic cell functions and include modifications by attachment of polypeptides such as ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like proteins (UBLs). Read more
MSc by Research: Immunotherapy against trypanosomiasis: Proof of concept
Drug discovery for parasitic diseases remains a major challenge and global health need. Significant advances in screening technology and methods to understand the mode of action in the past decade have contributed hugely to our arsenal of biological tools to control these pathogens. Read more
MSc by Research: Development of novel therapeutics against parasitic disease
Many drugs that are developed experimentally against pathogens fail, and one of the most common causes is due to an inability to efficiently enter the cell. Read more
