Investigating proteins that build the outer membrane of antimicrobial resistant bacteria

University of Oxford
Sir William Dunn School of Pathology
Antimicrobial resistant (AMR) micro-organisms cause a major global threat to modern medicine. Gram-negative, double-membraned bacteria (such as Escherichia coli) are particularly difficult to treat, in part because they have an outer membrane (OM) that acts as a barrier against antibiotics.

Neural Cellular Automata for Top-Down Engineering of Self-Organising Systems

University of York
Department of Computer Science
About the Project. Self-organisation is a property of many natural systems, where local interactions among individuals give rise to patterns and behaviours at the global level—for example, flocks of birds collectively avoiding a predator, or the collective decision-making process of honey bees' nest site selection [1].

Mitotic kinases safeguarding genome stability during mammalian cell division

University of Oxford
Sir William Dunn School of Pathology
Faithful cell division ensures the correct segregation of the genetic material over multiple generations. Failure of this process may result in cell death or lay the foundation for tumorigenesis. Read more

Mechanisms shaping and protecting the genome in eggs and sperm

University of Oxford
Sir William Dunn School of Pathology
Every human egg and sperm carries a unique genetic sequence. This diversity is essential for evolution, but it arises through DNA damage and repair processes that also threaten genome integrity. Read more

The role of RNA binding protein TIRR in kidney cancer

University of Oxford
Sir William Dunn School of Pathology
Eukaryotic cells employ a carefully coordinated network of signalling and repair proteins to resolve DNA damage, known as the DNA damage response (DDR). Read more
