Exploring Myxobacteria as live antibiotics against pathogenic bacteria

Multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacteria have been identified as a global threat to humanity, limiting therapeutic options. The search for new antibiotics lags far behind the occurrence of MDR bacteria with no new antibiotics brought to the clinic for over 15 years. Read more

Integrated omics approach to psychiatric disorders

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
In psychiatry, the selection of antipsychotics and antidepressants is led by a trial-and-error approach. The prescribing of these medications is complicated by sub-optimal efficacy and high rates of adverse drug reactions (ADRs). Read more

Where has all of the carbon gone? Understanding the molecular mechanisms of long-term soil carbon capture

Soils, while unglamorous, form the basis of the terrestrial biosphere and are ultimately the source of the majority of the food that we eat, yet fundamental aspects of how soils form and how they store carbon are poorly understood. Read more

Competition and cooperation relationships within human microbial communities.

Typical studies of the human microbiome identify dysbiosis by sampling from healthy individuals, comparing them to individuals with a particular disease state, and reporting changes in the presence and/or abundance of bacterial species. Read more

Epigenomic transcriptomic mechanisms underlying human neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative diseases

This project aims to use high throughput sequencing technologies and molecular approaches to understand how RNA epitranscriptomic processes contribute to susceptibility to human disorders of the brain. Read more

Exosome biogenesis and organelle trafficking in neurodegeneration.

Scientific summary. Intracellular transport pathways are fundamental for cell structure and function. Due to their longevity, complex morphology (long axonal and dendritic extensions) and requirement to maintain synaptic transmission, neurons are heavily dependent upon intracellular transport. Read more

Adaptation to environmental change in animals: ecology, evolution and genomics.

How are animals able to live in different environments, with different temperatures, energetic demands, diet, predators, parasites or pH? Thanks to advances in gene sequencing technology, we are in a remarkable period of discovery about the genomic basis of adaptation and how this depends on the intricacies of ecology and environment.

Novel strategies for the diagnosis and treatment of snakebites

Snakebite envenomation (SBE), a high priority neglected tropical disease affects several million people worldwide resulting in as many as 150,000 deaths and around 500,000 permanent disabilities every year. Read more
