My group investigates the blood-brain barrier, the specialised set of properties in the central nervous system vasculature that controls what can move in and out of the brain. When this barrier breaks down, material in the blood such as serum proteins can seep into the brain leading to hyperexcitability and neurodegeneration. With this prize, we will investigate if differences in the patterning of the cerebral vasculature between hemispheres shapes the lateralisation of cognitive functions and i

What determines the outcome of a given infection? Whether at the individual level, population level, or across species, variation in our immune response is widespread. What are the causal factors driving variation in our defence against pathogens? My lab studies these questions using a fruit fly model system. We have detailed an intuitive a logic to explain why key host defence genes (“antimicrobial peptides”) have evolved to their current forms, and are now studying the varying ways animals can
