Dr Elizabeth Warburton
Research interests are as follows
1. Molecular imaging of atheroma - particularly carotid plaque imaging using PET and MRI techniques. Both Clinical and microPET imaging. Proof of principle trials of novel atheroma drugs with imaging biomarkers...
Dr Colin Watts
Lab-based research is focused on the genomics of glioblastoma (GBM) and in the role of glial progenitors in their evolution and development. We are also interested in developing patient-specific models of GBM to evaluate intra-tumour variability i...
Dr Daniel Wheeler
Dr. Wheeler's main clinical interest is Pain Medicine, and since his appointment to the Lectureship in Anaesthesia in the Department of Medicine, he is building collaborations to explore the potential novel interventions for chronic painful condit...
Dr Joyce Whittington
Early research on specific learning disabilities - dyslexia - and associated cognitve deficits. For the last 10 years research has focussed on various prevalence, cognitive and behavioural aspects of Prader-Willi syndrome. Most of the latter is d...
Dr Ian Wilkinson
My research is clinically orientated and centres on the physiology and pharmacology of the cardiovascular system, and particularly the large arteries and endothelial function. As a clinical pharmacologist, I combine detailed physiological measure...
Dr Paul Wilkinson
My main research interest is the intermediate biology and cognitions of adolescent depression, in particular how such intermediate variables mediate associations between genotype, environment and disorder. The main intermediate variable I study i...
Dr Guy Williams
Our group’s research interests lie broadly in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). This phenomenon allows data to be collected noninvasively on both the structure and function of the human brain. We research novel acquisition methods to provide contr...
Dr David Williamson
Development of novel PET ligands for use in preclinical studies to image neurodegenerative processes e.g. Stroke & Dementia - Dr Ian Winter
Primitive neural mechanisms of auditory scene analysis.
My research searches for neurophysiological correlates of the cues necessary for the segregation and fusion of auditory objects. This work is carried out in close collaboration with psychop... 
Professor Daniel Wolpert
The group uses engineering approaches to understand how the human brain controls movement. The work includes both computational modelling and experimental approaches using robotic and virtual reality interfaces. Research areas include motor planni...- Dr Peter Wooding
Correlation between placental structure and function using light and electron microscopy for structure and immunocytochemistry and in situ hybridisation for function. The focus is mainly on ruminants but includes comparative studies on a wide vari... 
Professor Geoff Woods
As a Clinical Geneticist my interest is in defining and understand Mendelain diseases. I ascertain and assess families and thier phenotypes, perform molecular genetic studies to find the putative pathogeneic mutations causing the family phenotype,...
