Dr Steve Edgley
I’m interested in how movements are controlled. Our everyday movements are performed with little conscious thought and are remarkably precise. Despite what the textbooks tell you, the way in which this is accomplished is poorly understood. I work ...
Dr Stephen Eglen
I use computational tools to help investigate mechanisms of neural development.
In particular, I study the formation of retinotopic maps and retinal mosaics in vertebrate visual systems. In addition, I am interested in the analysis of large-scal...
Dr Michelle Ellefson
Dr. Ellefson is a lecturer in the Psychology & Neuroscience in Education with the Faculty of Education. Her work integrates cognition, neuroscience, child development, and education into a multi-disciplinary research programme aimed at improving m...
Dr Karen Ersche
My research focuses on the neuropsychological correlates and neurochemical processes underlying addictive behaviour and the translation of this knowledge into therapeutic interventions. This work involves a combination of approaches including neur...
Dr Mark Evans
My group are interested in (1) how brain detects changes in blood glucose and how this glucose-sensing interacts with peripheral metabolism; (2) how defences against hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) may become abnormal in diabetes; (3) the short an...
Dr Peter Evans
The research of my group is focussed on signalling mechanisms through 7-transmembrane spanning G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs). We are currently specifically focussing our research on rapid non-genomic actions of steroids through GPCRs. We ha...
Professor Barry Everitt Sc.D., F.R.S., F.Med.Sci.
My research is concerned with the neural and psychological mechanisms underlying learning, memory, motivation and reward especially related to drug addiction. A major research theme is the impact of learning on drug addiction - both its developmen...
Dr Jan Felix Evers
Coordinated behaviour is the end result of successful neuronal network assembly. During development, the excitability and connectivity of each neuron must be controlled to ensure that a functional network is built. I am particularly interested in ...
