Name (sorted in ascending order) | Role | Research Interests |
---|---|---|
Dr Emily Clark | Chancellors Fellow |
My main research interests focus on transcriptomics and genomics in livestock in both production animals and indigenous African breeds. I am particularly interested in functional annotation and the transcriptional control of complex traits. |
Laura Glendinning | Chancellor's Fellow |
My group researches the functional relationships between the microbiota, host and environment in various animal species, with a particular focus on avians. |
Dr Andy Law | Group Leader/Senior Research Fellow |
The development of simple-to-use systems for handling and reformatting data for genetic analyses. |
Dr Jeffrey Schoenebeck | Chancellors Fellow |
Genetic, genomic, and phenotyping approaches to studying the biological mechanisms that underlie canine morphology and disease. |
Dr Jacqueline Smith | Group Leader/Senior Research Fellow |
Genomics of Avian Viral Infections |
Dr Douglas Vernimmen | Chancellors Fellow/Research Fellow |
Our collaborative research with Prof K Kranc is to address the precise functions of epigenetic regulators in myeloid leukaemia using in vitro, ex-vivo and in vivo models. Together with additional screening in patients for mutations in this gene, this research will enable us to develop new approaches to treat leukaemia. |
Nick Wade | Professorial Group Leader in Aquaculture |
