Turning a Blind Eye to Scandal
Why are some politicians electorally ‘punished’ for immoral behavior while others are not and how can we explain voters’ heterogeneous responses to identical moral transgressions?...
RNA functions in parasite-host communication in the gut
Cross-species communication is required for proper functioning of the mammalian gut, where different organisms share resources, coordinate digestion and maintain homeostasis.In man...
ICURe TopMD Pathway Biomarker Catalogue
In this project, we are developing a catalogue, across diseases and treatments, of new, more powerful and informative biomarkers for use as companion diagnostics to predict treatme...
Discovering reasons for global atmospheric methane growth using deuterium isotopes
This proposal is to measure and model deuterium/hydrogen (D/H) isotope ratios in methane, to constrain the uncertainties in the global methane budget. Measurement will include 1) F...
