Chromatin remodelling complexes in human brain development

King’s College London Faculty of Life Sciences & Medicine

Chromatin regulators are a group of proteins that control the way the rest of the genome is opened up and “read” by the cellular machinery, with fundamental roles in development and disease. Read more

MSc by Research: Nutrient-dependent regulation of microglia function and immune responses

University of Dundee School of Life Sciences

Microglia are constantly sensing the brain environment for metabolic changes, damage and pathogenic invasion. Microglia are highly metabolically active, with activation in response to inflammatory stimulation increasing glycolytic demand. Read more

Exploring Molecular Pathways for Improved Neural Regeneration in Spinal Cord Injury

University of Portsmouth School of Pharmacy and Biomedical Sciences

In the UK, 50,000 people currently live with spinal cord injury (SCI), and an additional 2,500 new cases are reported annually. SCI results in a permanent loss of sensation and movement, serving as a primary cause of paralysis for which effective treatments are currently unavailable. 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
