Understanding the role of inflammation and immune selection in the context of clonal haematopoiesis and blood cancer

This PhD studentship is funded via an NIHR grant supporting collaboration between clinicians and scientists at St. James's hospital, Leeds, the Centre for Blood Research, Biology Department, York, and the Epidemiology and Cancer Statistics Group, York. Read more

Studying protein homeostasis in healthy and malignant stem cell development

The Grey lab studies the role of protein homeostasis in healthy and malignant haematopoietic (blood) stem cell development. We focus on the proteome of healthy stem cells as they mature in vivo, expand in vitro and their therapeutic use for bone marrow transplantation. Read more

Delineating the functional organisation of medial prefrontal cortex

The medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) is implicated in a diverse set of cognitive domains, including executive control, speech and language, memory and social cognition. Read more

Studying the nitrogen cycle by advanced NMR methods

Nitrogen is present in our environment in a wide variety of forms that include organic nitrogen, ammonium, nitrite, nitrate, nitrous oxide, nitric oxide and nitrogen gas. Read more

Unlocking the non-coding secrets of the human immune system

Thousands of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been discovered in mammalian transcriptomes. LncRNAs act through a multitude of mechanisms affecting transcription and co- and post-transcriptional mRNA processing in a cell. Read more

Towards New Antivirals for the Treatment of COVID-19: Fragment-Based Lead Generation of Small Molecule Inhibitors of the Nsp3 Macrodomain in SARS-CoV-2

Background. Coronaviruses (CoVs) are important human pathogens and SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic. Notwithstanding progress in available vaccines for COVID-19, there remains a need to develop small molecule drug candidates for treating COVID-19. Read more

The development of metal-based antibiotics

Background. Due to the widespread rise in microbial resistance, new classes of antimicrobial agents are urgently needed. However, only very few of the compounds in clinical development represent new structural classes. Read more

Role of the endosomal pathway in regulating sleep and circadian rhythms

Ageing and many neurodegenerative disorders are characterized by a progressive loss of neurons in particular brain regions leading to behavioural changes including cognitive decline, sleep disruption and circadian dysregulation. Read more

New protein modification chemistries for studying protein structure and function

Chemically modified proteins can be used to understand, treat, and diagnose disease. However, relatively few chemical reactions can be used to modify proteins, severely limiting the diversity and applications of new technologies. Read more

Ion channel signalling in cancer cells

Our cells constantly sense and transport ions present in their environment. From embryonic development to epilepsy to heart disease to cancer, our cells’ ability to respond to changes in the ionic microenvironment is essential for healthy ageing. Read more
