Targeting the mechanism of small GTPase splice variant RAC1B using ligand design
RAC1 is a small GTPase protein that functions as a key signalling node downstream of various microenvironmental signalling pathways. Read more
(BRC) Investigating neutrophil activation and altered epithelial structure in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
The National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR) funds Biomedical Research Centres (BRCs) as experimental medicine centres of excellence via competitive application every five years. Read more
Synthetic and Mechanistic Studies into Enzymatic Degradation of Waste Plastics
Plastics are a broad range of solid polymeric materials that have found widespread application globally. However, there has been a steady accumulation of discarded plastics and there is now growing awareness that they present a significant hazard to the natural environment and human health. Read more
Development of a wafer-scale graphene MEMS manufacturing process
Graphene is the ideal membrane material for micro/nano electromechanical systems (M/NEMS) due to its high stiffness and strength, high elasticity, high electrical and thermal conductivity and low areal mass. Read more
