Nurturing the future leaders in biomedical research
Nurturing the future leaders in biomedical research
Lister Fellow Dr Simon Bullock has recently published a new research paper in Science Advances, which suggests the cellular mechanism behind the devastating neurodegenerative diseases frontotemporal dementia (FTD) and motor neuron disease.
We are absolutely delighted to share the news that two scientists associated with the Lister Institute have been elected as Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
We caught up with Dr Tim Blower to talk about what winning the Fellowship meant to him and to find out how he’s using the funding to expand research in his lab.
Currently Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Glasgow, Daniel will soon move to become Head of the Division of Psychiatry within the Centre for Clinical Brain Sciences at the University of Edinburgh.
This new finding could help scientists develop treatments for diseases associated with ageing, such as cancer and dementia.
Lister Prize Fellow Amanda Sferruzzi-Perri has been awarded the prestigious Hans Sigrist Prize for 2020, for her work in reproductive physiology.
