The Role of Reactive Sulfur Species in the Ageing Heart

Second Supervisor. Prof Melanie Madhani, University of Birmingham. Background . Ageing is a natural and complex biological process that involves the gradual deterioration of cells, tissues, and organ systems over time, thus leading to an increased susceptibility to diseases and mortality.

Engineering more water-use efficient crops: functional genomics of CO2 fixation during Crassulacean acid metabolism

The world is getting hotter and drier due to climate change, and the human population is growing rapidly. Furthermore, it has been predicted that we will need to increase crop yields by 50 - 70 % by 2050 in order to feed the predicted 9 - 10 billion people. Read more

(MRC DTP CASE) Understanding how tumour associated macrophages control the tumour immune landscape in NF2-Schwannomatosis

Type 2 Neurofibromatosis (NF2), now referred to as NF2-Schwannomatosis (or NF2-SWN), is a rare autosomal dominant tumour pre-disposition syndrome characterised by growth of typically benign tumours throughout the nervous system. Read more

PhD studentship in the Groups of “Mathematics Applied to Biology” and “Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing” at the University of Sussex (UK), with the collaboration of the “Group of Numerical Methods in Engineering” at the University of A Coruña (Spain). Read more

Investigations into the protective actions of CBD in the early synaptic deficits in dementia.

Accumulation of hyper-phosphorylated tau is a key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aberrant changes in tau cause synaptic abnormalities and cognitive deficits in early AD. Read more

Control of bone shape and function by the extracellular matrix Fibrillin-1

Bones are tightly regulated structures that remodel their structure to adapt to changes in their mechanical environment. With ageing, this mechanical response is often dampened, leading to bone loss and weakness. Read more
