Investigating the sex-dependent effects of macrophage insulin resistance on non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a spectrum of liver diseases in part driven by macrophages. Premenopausal females exhibit protection from NAFLD and macrophages express estrogen receptors which have been shown to augment and dampen innate immune signalling pathways. Read more
Investigating changes in neuronal development and connectivity in a mouse model of muscimol-induced perinatal brain injury
Disruption of normal brain development during pregnancy and in infancy can lead to life-long neurological disorders. As the brain develops, there is increasing complexity of cellular structure, connectivity and functional activity. Read more
Methods for ultrasensitive and quantitative multimodal molecular imaging of vascular inflammation
About the project. Imaging agents enable researchers to explore animal models and investigate human pathologies non-invasively and secure crucial data to understand the onset and progression of diseases and conditions at the molecular level. . Read more
Imaging the contribution of early cerebrovascular inflammation in Alzheimer's disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other neurodegenerative diseases are associated with chronic peripheral inflammation. About 40% of the population in western countries live with insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, arterial hypertension, and obesity-related to lifestyle habits (e.g., Western-diet, tobacco addiction).

PhD in Engneering – Miniaturized MagnetoElectric (ME) Antenna for Implantable Brain Devices
This PhD project is part of the European Horizon CROSSBRAIN project which will be a collaboration between the University of Glasgow and partners from Italy, Germany and Spain. Read more
Elphinstone Scholarship - How does adolescent obesity change the control of dietary decision-making?
Obesity is a major health challenge for the 21st century and is associated with several metabolic (e.g. cardiovascular disorders, diabetes…) and psychiatric comorbidities (e.g. Read more
mRNA epigenetics: Charaterization of a novel layer of gene regulation for essential brain functions
Research Group:
BBSRC MIBTP
For over 40 years we know about modified nucleotides in mRNA, but the functions for these essential modifications are largely elusive. Read more
Scholarship for the PhD in Medical Sciences in the fields of Neuroscience and Biomedical Engineering for the PhD Research Project ‘Development of a closed-loop controller for automatic administration of anaesthetic and analgesic agents during surgery using machine learning methods’
PhD in Medical Sciences. The University of Nicosia Medical School offers the degree PhD in Medical Sciences. The degree is awarded to students who successfully complete an independent research programme that breaks new ground in the chosen field of study. Read more

Behaviour changes over development in SYNGAP1-related intellectual disability
Research Group:
Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences
Variation in the gene SYNGAP1 is increasingly recognised as an important cause of intellectual disability, autism and epilepsy. To date the vast majority… Read more
