BSB PhD Exit Seminar: Investigating the potential for P-glycoprotein in the prevention of Alzheimer’s Disease »
Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterised by the deposition of Amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregates throughout the cerebrum, especially in the cerebrovascular and hippocampal tissues.
PS PhD Exit Seminar - Tender freaks: Exploring resilience to global change among fringe-dwelling forest species. »
Global climate change is challenging many forested ecosystems with drought, mean temperature increases, heat waves, and biotic agent outbreaks.
PS Seminar Series: A hard day's night; determining a role for stomatal conductance in nocturnal heat tolerance »
Nocturnal stomatal conductance (gsn) represents a significant, enigmatic source of water-loss, with implications for whole plant metabolism, thermal regulation and water-use efficiency.
BSB Seminar: Membranes under the lens: Using structural biology data to visualise receptor dynamics »
How can we tell engaging stories about complex biological processes that are invisible to the naked eye? Scientists utilise a variety of techniques to investigate and visualise membrane receptors (gatekeepers of information) that transfer signals across membranes.
BSB Seminar: Development and characterisation of novel antimalarial chemotypes from the Janssen Jumpstarter library »
Malaria is a devastating disease caused by the Plasmodium parasite. Due to the threat of emerging drug resistance, the current arsenal of clinically used artemisinin combination therapies and drug candidates undergoing clinical assessment may not be sufficient in eliminating the disease.
PS Seminar Series: Advances in plant and microbial science: approaches to address global food and climate security »
Talk followed by panel discussion about future directions in Plant Science.
