Generating a disease model for Alzheimer's Disease in non-human primates
Our lab is interested in understanding and treating a devastating neurodegenerative disorder, Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), in particular aspects relating to develop appropriate disease models for AD. Read more
PhD Studentship - A multi-model approach to investigate the role of early neuroinflammation in dementia with Lewy bodies
Overview. Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) is a common form of dementia caused by the abnormal folding and aggregation of the synaptic protein alpha-synuclein. Read more
BBSRC MIBTP - Identification of pathways deregulating neuronal ELAV/Hu RNA binding proteins and alternative splicing in neurodegeneration
Research Group:
BBSRC MIBTP
ELAV/Hu proteins comprise a family of highly conserved neuronal RNA binding proteins important for the development of the nervous system and for neuronal functions. Read more
MVLS/EPSRC - A Chemical Biology Approach to Evaluate the Reversible Oxidation of Methionine in the Regulation of Protein Function.
Research Group:
Institute of Molecular, Cell and Systems Biology
Oxidation of proteins leads to their inactivation and results in diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Mammalian cells contain poorly characterised enzymes called methionine sulfoxide reductases that can reverse the oxidation of methionine and protect proteins from oxidative damage. Read more
Cell growth signalling in space: How does mTOR kinase communicate with diverse cellular compartments?
PROJECT IN BRIEF. This 4-year PhD project addresses the fundamental question of how individual cells sense and respond to environmental changes. Read more

Investigation of an uncharacterised, embryonically lethal gene in immune cell development
This project is available through the MIBTP programme. The successful applicant will join the MIBTP cohort and will take part in all of the training offered by the programme. Read more
Microfluidic bioimaging for monitoring protein phase behaviour in biological systems
Over the past decades, protein aggregation has been recognised as one of the causes of neurodegenerative disorders, such as Alzheimer’s disease. Read more
