The Role of Reactive Sulfur Species in the Ageing Heart

Second Supervisor. Prof Melanie Madhani, University of Birmingham. Background . Ageing is a natural and complex biological process that involves the gradual deterioration of cells, tissues, and organ systems over time, thus leading to an increased susceptibility to diseases and mortality. Read more

Microfluidic technologies applied to respiratory diseases

Subject area. 3D Printing, lab-on-a-chip, Drug Delivery, Pharmaceutical Technology. In Preclinical studies, a large number of molecules and biomolecules, in a very short time, have to be evaluated in terms of efficacy and toxicity. Read more

Investigating the self-organizing properties of cardiac cells in vivo

The key aims of this PhD project are to use knowledge gathered from high precision in vivo imaging and active matter physics-based theoretical modelling to assess how patterns of cardiac cell contractility drive cardiac tissue curvature. Read more

Advancing translational cell therapy for Hirschsprung disease

Clinical disorders characterised by neuronal loss or dysfunction in the gastrointestinal tract remain some of the most challenging to manage, with considerable morbidity and mortality and very limited treatments. Read more

Sensitizing AML cells to RAR and VDR ligands (vitamin A and D derivatives) to prevent leukaemia relapse

The doctoral candidate (DC) will perform basic research on leukaemia cell biology in vitro and in vivo at the Department of Clinical Biochemistry and Pharmacology, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel. Read more

Investigating how mitochondrial dynamics control mtDNA homeostasis and engineering tools to visualise mtDNA molecules

Mitochondria are dynamic organelles forming a specific network by membrane remodeling events according to cellular needs1. Mitochondria contain multiple copies of their own genome, mtDNA, a circular molecule that encodes essential proteins involved in cellular energy production. Read more

Neurovascular coupling in cerebral hypoperfusion

There are almost a million people living with dementia in the UK. Most of these cases comprise Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), vascular dementia (VaD) or, as is increasingly recognised, a mixed picture phenotype with evidence of the two conditions co-existent in the same patient. Read more

Untangling how Shelterin safeguards telomere structure and stability - one molecule at a time

Background. Telomeres solve two problems with linear chromosomes. the end-replication problem, DNA loss from the end of chromosomes every replication cycle; and the end-protection problem, protection of the chromosome ends to prevent chromosome fusions. Read more

(MRC DTP CASE) Multiomic evaluation of differential drug response in metastatic breast cancers

Breast cancers are the most common cancers in women. Estrogen Receptor (ER) plays a major role in breast cancer growth. To stop the cancer from growing further, clinically successful ER-targeting therapies like Fulvestrant, etc were developed. Read more
