  • David Tannahill Dr David Tannahill
    I have worked on a range of model systems from Xenopus and zebrafish to chicks and mice. My current research is focused on building an atlas that describes where and when large numbers of genes are expressed in the developing mouse embryo. For thi...
  • Dr Robert Tasker
    Over 10,000 children are admitted to a Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU) in the UK each year and, of these, 1500 have acute brain injury. In our recent studies in cohorts of children from the Addenbrooke’s Hospital PICU we have examined the e...
  • Colin Taylor Professor Colin Taylor
    Roles of inositol trisphosphate (IP3) receptors in generating intracellular calcium signals. Structural determinants of IP3 receptor behaviour. Decoding of calcium signals.
  • Hannah ter Hofstede Dr Hannah ter Hofstede
    I study the sensory ecology of predator-prey relationships using bats and their insect prey as a study system. Ears have evolved in many groups of insects to detect the ultrasonic echolocation calls of bats and trigger evasive behaviour. Using ele...
  • Roger Thomas Professor Roger Thomas
    Intracellular ion homeostasis in nerve cells. I use pH and Ca2+ sensitive microelectrodes to study ionic interactions inside large snail neurones. I am currently investigating the Ca:H coupling ratio of the plasma membrane Ca pump, or PMCA.
  • Gergely Toth, EMBA Dr Gergely Toth, MBA
    My research interests include the targeting of intrinsically disordered proteins by small molecules, which misfold and lose their native functions and/or gain toxic functions implicated in neurodegenerative diseases. We are working on multidisci...
  • Richard Turner Dr Richard Turner
    My research lies at the interface between computer perception (which builds artificial systems for understanding images, sounds and videos), neuroscience (which tries to understand the brain) and machine-learning (which provides a theoretical fram...
  • Lorraine Tyler Professor Lorraine Tyler
    I head an interdisciplinary research group working on the neurobiology of language in healthy and brain-damaged populations. We combine data from a variety of imaging techniques (fMRI, MEG, EEG) and relate patterns of activity in healthy people wi...
