Using chemical-genetics to inhibit and characterise “undruggable” enzymes

The ability to inhibit kinases with small molecule drugs has transformed our understanding of signalling networks. It has allowed us to define the substrates and processes that each kinase controls, and to map how these enzymes cooperate within signalling pathways. Read more

Dissecting behaviourally relevant feedback microcircuits in the brain

Interactions between distinct neural circuits in the brain help in sensory-guided perceptual decisions. We have recently reported that task/context-switching behaviour is dependent upon specific populations of neurons in the frontal cortex which encode and convey rule-related information (Banerjee et al. Read more

Investigations into the protective actions of CBD in the early synaptic deficits in dementia.

Accumulation of hyper-phosphorylated tau is a key event in Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Aberrant changes in tau cause synaptic abnormalities and cognitive deficits in early AD. Read more

NIHR Leeds BRC: Force sensing mechanisms of haemostasis in heart failure and diabetes

Since the original identification of the role of PIEZO1 in vascular integrity and endothelial cell biology by our group in Leeds in 2014, there have been many publications on the role of PIEZO1 in endothelial function and its role in processes such as atherosclerosis, hypertension, cell-cell junctions, vascular permeability and leukocyte diapedesis. Read more

Targeting the MAPK scaffold protein KSR1 for the treatment of prostate cancer

  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Prostate cancer is one of the leading causes of male cancer deaths. It arises when individual cells escape their normal growth control mechanisms and proliferate in an uncontrolled fashion. Read more

Novel strategies and innovative technologies to produce amorphous solid dispersion

Poor drug solubility presents a major challenge in drug product development of oral solid dosage (OSD) forms. However, many new development compounds exhibit poor solubility and only a few of them reach market approval. Read more

Self funded MSc by Research or PhD in Biology: Ion channel signalling in cancer cells

Lead supervisor: Dr W Brackenbury. The student will be registered with the Department of Biology. Our cells constantly sense and transport ions present in their environment. Read more

Molecular Mechanisms of Receptor and Ion Channel Regulation in Pain and Inflammation

Are you ready to delve into the captivating world of molecular signaling and unravel the mysteries of the cardiovascular and nervous systems? We are thrilled to offer an exhilarating PhD opportunity at the forefront of scientific exploration. Read more

Pharmacological effects of cannabidiol (CBD) on mesenchymal stem cells in endometriosis

Endometriosis is a common long-term health condition that affects around 190 million women of reproductive age worldwide. It causes severe pain during periods, sex, going to the toilet, and sometimes just general pelvic discomfort, bloating, and tiredness. Read more
