LSE TECHNOLOGY APPROACH TO GENERATE INNOVATIVE KINASE INHIBITOR DRUGS (LSE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2013, End date: Jul 31, 2015,

Over the last decade, kinases have emerged as attractive therapeutic targets in inflammatory diseases. Numerous efforts in the pharmaceutical community are directed towards the discovery of small molecule inhibitors that regulate kinase function.A number of issues need to be addressed when considering kinases as targets in inflammation. The combination of efficacy and favourable safety profile is ...

High Brightness COnical REfraction Lasers (HICORE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

A fundamental property of lasers is the ability to propagate and be focused to very small spots with little divergence, termed beam quality. The ability to achieve high power low divergence operation (high brightness) is of paramount importance for many applications, both existing and potential, of laser devices. Effective ways to scale output power without compromising beam quality are limited ...

SUMO proteomics in C. elegans: focus on meiosis and the DNA damage response (CeleSUMOMS)

Start date: Sep 17, 2012, End date: Sep 16, 2014,

SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) is a small peptide that can be covalently attached to target proteins in an analogous way to ubiquitin. SUMO is involved in transcriptional regulation, sub-cellular partitioning, stress response, and DNA damage response, among other processes. The roles for the SUMO conjugation pathway have been mainly addressed using transformed cell lines and yeast. To addres ...

Understanding the evolutionary origin of biological diversity (SPECIATION)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

"The aim of this Network is to train nine young scientists to PhD level in the biological disciplines needed to understand the evolutionary origin of biological diversity. This understanding is critical to the proper management of biodiversity, especially at a time of rapid environmental change. Our approach is to select powerful model systems with which to investigate the process of speciation an ...
