Recent Developments in the Patho-Physiological Molecular Clocks Lab
New Scientist article by Linda Geddes on clock phenotyping
Great article by Linda Geddes in the New Scientist featuring a quote by Bob.
Of note, TimeTeller in this article is not 2019s TAFKATT, i.e., The Algorithm First Known As TimeTeller, as in Vlachou et al. 2020, doi: 10.1101/622050v2. Link opens in a new window
TimeTeller talk at the 7th Conference of the Canadian Society for Chronobiology
In the symposium "Precision medicine, chronotherapy and new technologies to infer individual rhythms" Robert will give a talk on the use of TimeTeller to estimate clock phase and function in experimental models cells and tissues.
HMS Dissertation projects are a wrap for 2025!
Meet Zitian and Jemima from the undergraduate programme in Health and Medical Sciences at WMS. They just completed their undergraduate dissertation projects in the Chrono Lab and still can smile!

Spring UK Clock Club in Coventry
On Friday 21 March, after a pause of nine years, organisers from WMS (Dallmann, Agrawal), SLS (Gifford, Walker and Martins) and Coventry University (Roden) hosted the UK Clock Club. From plants to people, molecules to mice, the programme of talks, posters showcased the breadth of the circadian field. Impact of the clock on human health was exemplified by Prof John Hogenesch's (Cincinnati Children's hospital) keynote lecture. This was further supplemented by workshops for ECRs on policy engagement and theory of change facilitated by SPRE as well as a highly interactive media training by Chris Smith (Naked Scientist). The meetings was organised in collaboration with BioClocks UK and funded by BBSRC FTMA, Genetics Society, BSN, RSE and SEB as well as contributions by commercial exhibitors Novogene, ActivInisghts, Stratech, NEB and Campden Instruments.
Last but not least, congratulations for her poster award (runner up) to MRC DTP PhD student Rachael Ralph, recognising her poster on the circadian intercellular control of blood brain barrier permeability.
