Professor Robin Irvine
All my research centres around inositides, which fall into two groups, inositol lipids and inositol phosphates. Most of our work focuses on some of the kinases that phosphorylate inositides, and the functions of their substrates and products, incl...
Dr Tony Jackson
1) Sodium channels contain both alpha and beta subunits. The beta subunits regulate channel kinetics and assembly. The beta subunit extracellular region is homologous to the immunoglobulin domain found in cell adhesion molecules, and beta subunits...
Dr Thomas Jahn
The hallmark of numerous neurodegenerative disorders is the accumulation of microscopic protein deposits such as the amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's Disease and the Lewy Bodies of Parkinson's Disease. My research is focused on understanding the rel...
Dr Gregory Jefferis
Our broad goal is to understand how smell turns into behaviour in the fruit fly brain. We use a combination of genetic labelling and manipulation, targeted in vivo whole cell patch clamp recording and high resolution neuroanatomy to study olfactor...
Professor Peter Jones
The Cambridge “epiCentre” group works at the interface between population-based research, neuroscience and clinical psychiatry in order to understand the causes, mechanisms and treatments for psychosis (particularly schizophrenia) dementia, depres...
Dr Phil Jones
We are investigating how normal stem cells transform into cancer cells in a range of sytems, both by studying stem and progenitor cell fate and also by investigating the role of a specific cell fate regulators. Our focus has been on Hes6, which r...
Dr Susan Jones
The primary focus of our research is the function of AMPA and NMDA glutamate receptors at excitatory synapses in the brain. We study the properties of glutamate receptors, glutamatergic synaptic transmission, and synaptic plasticity. We are intere...
