VariantCurator: A “spell-checker” for genomic variant data that will improve diagnostic rates by improving the accuracy of genetic data in clinical literature and increasing the findability of data in historic literature
Rare diseases affect <1-in-2,000 people, but ~8,000 rare genetic diseases impact ~10% of births globally. These arise from variations in patients’ DNA sequences. Read more
Targeting RNA modification for modulation of immune cell function
Academic Supervisor. Claudia Ribeiro. Industrial Partner. Storm Therapeutics. The Babraham Research Campus (BRC) is pleased to announce that it has available a number of studentships from its BBSRC Collaborative Training Partnership (CTP) Award to start in October 2025. Read more
Translating Deep Learning protein bioinformatics methods to accelerate structural determination by X-ray crystallography
Even after the AlphaFold 2 (AF2) revolution, experimental structural biology contributes enormously to advances across all areas of biology. Read more
Using machine learning to predict cell-type specific effects of genetic variants which influence genome regulation
UK Dementia Research Institute (UK DRI) Centre at Imperial. PhD Studentship in Machine Learning for Genomics. Imperial College London. Read more
Mechanistic analysis of neurodevelopmental disorders caused by mutations in the gene RAC1
RAC1 is a signalling protein that regulates many cellular processes and is essential during embryonic development. We recently discovered a novel genetic disease called RAC1-related neurodevelopmental disorder (RAC1-NDD) that results from mutations in the RAC1 gene. Read more
Liquid biopsy biomarkers for early detection of paediatric brain tumours
Over the past four decades, significant advancements have been made in the treatment of childhood cancer, leading to a substantial increase in cure and survival rates. Read more
NIHR Newcastle Biomedical Research Centre and Haleon PhD Studentship: Investigation into the links between periodontal disease and inflammatory bowel disease
Award summary . 100% of home tuition fees paid and stipend at UKRI rate, currently £19,237 per year. Successful international candidates will be required to fund the difference between home and international fees. . Read more
Unveiling the relationships between the alveolar bone mechanical and structural properties in health and periodontal disease
Project details. Periodontitis presents a significant challenge in dentistry, often leading to tooth loss due to irreversible damage to the supportive soft and hard tissues surrounding teeth. Read more
Recreating the Head and Neck Cancer Microenvironment
Project details. Head and Neck cancer (HNC) is a significant cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide, ranking as the 6th most common cause of cancer incidence and mortality in the world. Read more
Automated Detection and Analysis of Cancers using Artificial Intelligence
Project details. Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been shown to be important in obtaining ‘big data’ from whole slide images (WSI) and offers unique opportunities for automated detection of different types of cells as well as their digital footprint which can aid cancer treatment. Read more
Efficacy of novel antimicrobial treatments on oral pathogens
Project details. Bacterial oral infections can cause a variety of problems including dental caries, abscesses, gingivitis and periodontal disease. Read more
The biology of plasmids in human adapted pathogens
Plasmids are extrachromosomal elements in bacteria that confer virulence and resistance against antimicrobials. In the host adapted pathogens, Shigella and Neisseria gonorrhoeae, plasmids have established long evolutionary links with the bacterial species. Read more
Mechanism evaluation of synthetic lethality in cancers of mesenchyme
One of the major challenges in cancer is how to selectively disrupt the cancer cell yet leave all normal functioning cells intact. Read more
Understanding dynamic centromeres
Centromeres are the structural regions of chromatin that serve as a platform for the kinetochore machinery assembly, hence essential for accurate chromosome segregation during cell division. Read more
Selection and evaluation of new universal influenza vaccine candidates using monoclonal antibodies and digitally designed HA and NA libraries & pseudotype virus screens
Universal influenza vaccines are a major global R&D vaccine priority. The Temperton (ORCID. Read more
