Biological role of neuropeptides and their receptors

University of Reading School of Pharmacy
Cell signalling is critical to the co-ordination and functioning of all cells. Cell signalling allows cells to co-ordinate activities within the intracellular environment as well as ensuring cells know how to correctly respond to other cells and to an ever-changing extracellular environment as well.

Integrating information from vision and touch in virtual reality telepresence systems

University of Reading School of Psychology & Clinical Language Sciences
Virtual reality systems are fundamentally altering how we study human sensory perception. Similarly, to build good virtual reality systems we need a clear understanding of how the brain integrates sensory information into a robust and useful percept. Read more

Functional Data Analysis in Finance

University of Reading Department of Economics
In Functional data analysis (FDA), the variable of interest can be naturally viewed as a smooth curve or function, rather than scalars in univariate analysis or vectors in multivariate analysis. Read more

How do prenatal steroids elevate autism likelihood?

University of Reading Department of Biomedical Sciences
The causes of autism remain unknown. Some literature has showed a link between higher levels of steroid hormones such as testosterone in the womb and autism in children, particularly males. Read more

Understanding extinction risk in the Anthropocene

University of Reading Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
We live in a humanized world in which even the most remote areas have been affected by the actions of our species. Human impacts have caused a widespread loss of biodiversity, to the point that we have likely entered the sixth mass extinction event on Earth, the first primarily caused by humans. Read more

Multilevel selection on transposition rates in cancer

University of Reading Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology
Cancer is an evolutionary process. Cells in a tumour vary due to mutation, and so over many generations they adapt in response to both intrinsic selective pressures (such as anoxia) and extrinsic selective pressures (such as chemotherapy). Read more
