Understanding Spinal Cord Regeneration: The role of dynamic gene expression

Spinal cord injury(SCI) paralysis is a devastating disease that affects at least 2500 people per year in the UK. It carries substantial individual and societal costs with most SCI sufferers experiencing chronic pain. Read more

Investigating monogenic disorders of the protein synthesis machinery

Translation of mRNA into proteins is a critical cellular biological process. We recently described a novel human disorder, now called Faundes-Banka Syndrome (FABAS), caused by heterozygous variants in EIF5A1 that encodes a translation factor. Read more

Transcriptional control of vascular development

Sprouting of new capillaries from pre-existing vessels (angiogenesis) promotes the formation of almost all blood vessels during development, growth and tissue regeneration. Read more

Investigating the role of bulk cytoplasmic flow in germ granule transport during early zebrafish embryogenesis

A 3-year doctoral studentship is available for highly motivated candidates with a background in Mathematics, Engineering and/or Physics, to work on an interdisciplinary project applying active soft matter physics to cellular activity in embryos. Read more

The analysis of HIF function in DNA repair and genome stability

DNA damage is a factor that underlies many human diseases. Such damage results in mutations, and if such genetic alterations occur in tumour suppressor or proto-oncogenes it can lead to cancer. Read more

Identifying Novel Genes and Developing Treatments for Children with Inherited Neuromuscular Diseases

Inherited neuromuscular disorders are disabling, progressive, often fatal conditions, representing an enormous unmet medical need with devastating impacts on affected families, the healthcare system, and the economy. Read more
