Developing unbiased fluxomics tools to identify and validate novel therapeutic agents in models of Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS).
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurological disease that primarily affects the neurons responsible for controlling voluntary muscle movement. Read more
Manipulating the plant phyllosphere microbiome for plant and environmental health.
Healthy plants, like all higher organisms, host an extensive commensal microbial community or microbiome. Non-pathogenic microbes in many cases benefit the host. Read more
Haustoria-omics with proteomics, transcriptomics, and gene silencing, to understand fungal pathogenicity and plant resistance during powdery mildew disease in food crops
Powdery mildews (PMs) are prevalent plant diseases that compromise the production of many valuable food and horticultural crops, including cereals, strawberry, cucurbits and pea. Read more
Vegetable seed priming: Improving seed quality with novel seed treatments
Agriculture is the heart of our food system and as our population grows, so does our challenge to feed the world. Read more
Effects of forest diversity on aquatic-terrestrial linkages and processes
Tree species, functional and genetic diversity is known to mediate ecosystem processes and functioning of the forest ecosystems. However, forest ecosystems are connected to other ecosystems through the flow of species, energy and elements. Read more
Stranger danger: do individuals within a group preferentially extract movement information from familiar individuals, and how do they recognise them?
Many animals travel in groups. There are benefits and consequences to group travel, neither of which will be distributed equally among group members. Read more
The evolution of mutualistic interactions and of aggregated dispersal
Mutualistic interactions have long fascinated biologists. If a mutualism benefits the recipients of the mutualistic act but come at a cost to the provider, it is an evolutionary puzzle why interactions why such interactions exist. Read more
Universal repair of ataxia telangiectasia mutations by CRISPR genome editing
Ataxia telangiectasia (A-T) is a severe autosomal recessive genetic disease caused by mutations in the ATM gene, which lead to cerebellar degeneration, cancer susceptibility and immunodeficiency. Read more

Gravitational-wave astronomy: new approaches to understanding compact binary mergers
In 2015, the kilometre-scale LIGO laser interferometers observed tiny ripples in spacetime called gravitational waves from the collision of two black holes. Read more

Isotope fractionation of cadmium during continental weathering
The burial of organic matter in the ocean is a major component of the global carbon cycle, which impacts on global climate. Recent work has indicated that the isotopic composition of the trace element cadmium may be capable of recording variations in marine organic matter burial in the past. Read more
