Vascularising human mini-brains in a dish

Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children NHS Trust BRC Translational Research (Non-Clinical) PhD Studentships

Blood vessels play a pivotal role in brain development and function. They promote tissue growth and survival by supplying nutrients and oxygen to surrounding tissues, signals to progenitor populations, as well as guiding neuronal migration. Read more

Understanding how mutations in the kinase TLK2 cause a neurodevelopmental disorder

University of York York Biomedical Research Institute

Tousled-like kinase 2 (TLK2) was recently identified as a novel genetic locus for a neurodevelopmental disorder. Patients predominantly possess de novo mutations in TLK2, leading to a reduction in its expression or kinase activity. Read more
