Mr Dwaipayan Adhya Autism is a complex neurodevelopmental disorder. Studies have shown that it affects more males than females. Prenatal exposure to sex steroids, especially, testosterone have been shown to be related to development of autism. Epigenetic changes hav...
Dr Peter Arthur-Farraj I am a neurology registrar with an interest in neuromuscular disorders and nerve repair. I have recently been awarded a Wellcome Trust Clinical Career Development Fellowship, to work with Professor Michael Coleman’s group at the John Van Geest Cen...
Dr Gonca Bayraktar My research aims to understand how synaptic plasticity governs learning and memory function of the brain and how gradual loss of function or impairment leads to neurodegeneration. My research focuses on the study of neurodegeneration from various ...
Dr Leonidas Chouliaras My research interests include the role of epigenetic mechanisms in neurodegeneration, and particularly in Lewy Body Dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and mild cognitive impairment.
My projects focus on genome-wide profiling of DNA methylation and hydr...
Professor Anne Ferguson-Smith Genomic imprinting is an epigenetic mechanism causing genes to be expressed depending on their parental origin. Our research investigates the mechanism and evolution of genomic imprinting and the function of imprinted genes in development and dise...
Dr Ellen Tedford I am interested in the role extracellular vesicles play in neurodegenerative diseases, primarily I work on Alzhiemer's Disease and tauopathies investigating the mechanisms that govern tau aggregation on a molecular and epigenetic level. Extracellu...
