‘Payload-Releasing Electrophiles’ – a new disease-selective delivery strategy for diagnostics and therapeutics

Graduate Teaching Assistantship. This is a Graduate Training Assistantship (GTA), which means that you will be required to do some teaching, particularly lab demonstrating, as part of your training. Read more

Enzyme Cascades controlled in the Electrochemical Leaf for Discovery in Antimicrobial Strategy

Antibiotic discovery is usually aimed at single entities, for example a bacterial enzyme or efflux protein. This also means that antimicrobial resistance (AMR) mechanisms are considered in terms of the individual response, for example, mutations in a single target enzyme, affording resistance to the drug.

Novel strategy for treatment of chronic wounds via multi-functional liposomal nanocarriers

  Research Group: Medicines Development and Pharmaceutical Sciences
A confounding issue of non-healing skin wounds is the presence of pathogenic bacteria, that protect themselves from conventional antibiotic treatments by encasing themselves within protective shields (biofilms). Read more

Investigation of antagonism of multiple RGD-binding integrins as a therapeutic strategy in advanced head and neck cancer

  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Background. The integrins are a family of transmembrane receptors which mediate cell-cell and cell-ECM adhesion, and signalling across the cell membrane involved in pathways controlling cell migration, proliferation, differentiation, cell survival and apoptosis. Read more

Genetics: Investigating the molecular basis of optic nerve degeneration in glaucoma to try and develop a personalized medicine strategy for treatment

The optic nerve is a special sensory nerve that transmits visual impulses from the retina to the brain. Primary Open Angle Glaucoma (POAG) is a chronic, progressive optic neuropathy of multifactorial origin that affects 1 in 10 elderly individuals. Read more

Using chemical-genetics to inhibit and characterise “undruggable” enzymes

The ability to inhibit kinases with small molecule drugs has transformed our understanding of signalling networks. It has allowed us to define the substrates and processes that each kinase controls, and to map how these enzymes cooperate within signalling pathways. Read more
