Recent Developments in the Patho-Physiological Molecular Clocks Lab
Exciting new network starts at Warwick
under the umbrella of the GRP Science and Technology for Health an exciting new network with the goal to develop new E-health applications for physical activity, sleep and circadian rhythms has been founded including more than a dozen labs from all over campus. Looking forward to come together and see what is already here.
Warwick at Chrono and Sleep Summer School in Oxford
Laura and Ewan have been selected to take part in the prestigous Oxford Summer School on Sleep and Circadian Clocks to learn all out our Rhythms and Homeostats.
New Incubator sponsored by Warwick Cancer Centre operational
Thanks to the generous donations of funds to the Warwick Cancer Centre, we were able to aquire a new CO2 mammalian cell culture incubator for culturing cells of the intestinal mucosa.
This will enable testing the characteristics of novel nanomaterials developed by our collaborators in the Perrier lab at Warwick Chemistry, which might transport drugs through these barriers and directly to the tumour tissue for better cancer treatments.
Talk about clocks at Café Scientifique in Leamington Spa
How does your biological clock tick? And what does that have to do with chronic diseases or treating them?
Come and find out at Café Scientifique in Leamgton Spa on 19 March.
New paper on circadian dynamics of mitochondria and energy metabolism
Cellular ATP levels are modulated by the circadian clock influencing mitochondrial network dynamics through DRP1 phosphorylation.
