• Investigation of mechanisms underpinning host-microbial interactions in the gastrointestinal tract 

  Udayan, Sreeram (University College Cork, 2019)

  Research in the areas of microbiome science and immunology have identified different members of a host’s microbiota, particularly bacteria, as having critical roles in shaping the development and function of both intestinal ...
• New biosensors for metabolic imaging 

  O'Donnell, Neil (University College Cork, 2018)

  Tissue engineering is a multi-disciplinary field that involves three-dimensional cell and tissue models, live cell microscopy and related imaging modalities, along with fluorescence and phosphorescence-based biosensors. ...
• A functional analysis of Rab11a and Rab11b in endosomal recycling 

  Artemiuk, Patrycja A. (University College Cork, 2019)

  Rab11 GTPases are a family of three monomeric G proteins which are involved in a number of cellular processes including cell division, cell migration and cargo trafficking. Rab11a and Rab11b share over 89% sequence similarity, ...
• Redox biology in retinal degeneration 

  Ruiz López, Ana M. (University College Cork, 2019)

  Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) involves a group of hereditary diseases that cause progressive and severe visual impairment, with a prevalence of about 1 in 4,000 individuals worldwide. Unfortunately, there is currently no cure ...
• Studying sequence effects of mRNA 5' cap juxtapositions on translation initiation rate using randomization strategy of the extreme 5' end of mRNA 

  Pai, Anjali (University College Cork, 2018)

  Translation initiation is a complex process. The efficiency of translation initiation is determined not just by activity and availability of the translation initiation apparatus, but also the properties of mRNA 5’transcript ...
