I am a biochemical geneticist working on the genetics and pathogenesis of mitochondrial energy generation disorders. I have a particular focus on the severe mitochondrial diseases of childhood but am also studying mitochondrial involvement in common disor
I am a cell biologist who studies the molecular mechanisms that couple cells together into tissues in the body. These adhesion mechanisms are essential during development, support normal tissue turnover and are disrupted in human disease. My research aims to understand how cell adhesion functions normally and how it is disturbed in inflammation and cancer.
I am a cancer biologist investigating mechanisms that regulate the aberrant cell proliferation in cancers, particularly melanomas. I am attempting to utilise defects in normal proliferative mechanisms as targets for novel anti-cancer therapies.
I am an Opthalmologist specialising in the treatment of glaucoma and genetic eye diseases. I am trained in Molecular Genetics and researching the genetic causes of eye diseases, and how understanding the basis of disease will lead to improved outcomes.
I am a molecular-cell biologist studying the genetic regulation of intestinal homeostasis in development and disease with the aim of identifying novel molecular targets for the treatment of disease and that can be validated in relevant preclinical mouse models.
I am a biochemist and molecular pharmacologist discovering and determining the mode and site of action of bioactive peptides from cone snails. I guide the assay and chemical detection of new bioactives which are isolate to purity, sequenced and their stru
