BSB PhD Exit Seminar: Study of the functional roles of hypothetical proteins in the virulence of Shigella flexneri serotype 1c »
Shigella flexneri is an entero-pathogen that is considered a significant public health risk, causing shigellosis or bacillary dysentery, and accounts for the highest percentage of diarrheal deaths annually.
E&E PhD Exit Webinar: Systematic bias in phylogenetic inference: Implications, Assessment, and Reduction »
Phylogenetic inference is the process of reconstructing relationships between species from genomic sequence data. The reliability of phylogenetic analysis relies on the quality of the data and the fitness of the substitution models.
PS Webinar Series - PhD Exit Seminar: Plant hydration dynamics: measurement and uptake pathways »
Most water fluxes on the land occur through plants via transpiration, and agriculture uses 70% of the water managed by humans.
RSB Directors Seminar: Relating protein structure to function with computer simulations »
Professor Ben Corry
BSB PhD Exit Seminar: A study of cellular amino acid homeostasis identifies novel combination therapies for cancer »
Scientific and technological advancements in the field of cell physiology over the last thirty years have uncovered the identities and functions of over sixty solute carriers which participate in the transport of amino acids in mammalian cells.
PS Webinar Series: Can We Breed Crops For Unobserved Future Environments? »
Research interests - Working on developing new methods to combine information from corn, sorghum, and related orphan crops and wild species to identify genetic changes that alter crop traits important to farmers and food traits important to consumers.
BSB PhD Exit Seminar: Structure-function studies of multidrug resistance transporters of the malaria parasite »
Many genes that have been recently identified as determinants of drug resistance in the malaria parasite encode membrane transport proteins (also known as transporters).
PS Webinar Series: The necrotrophic effector ToxA from Parastagonospora nodorum interacts with wheat NHL proteins to facilitate Tsn1-mediated...
The wheat necrotrophic fungal pathogen, Parastagonospora nodorum, secretes effector proteins to manipulate host immunity and promote successful infection.
E&E PhD Exit Seminar: Cats choose their E. coli; or vice versa? »
Escherichia coli extraintestinal infections (ExPEC) cause significant disease in humans and companion animals (cats and dogs).
