What's On at UWA

Non-invasive brain stimulation (NIBS) can induce functionally relevant plasticity in the human cortex. While there is great potential for these protocols to be used therapeutically in a range of neurological and psychiatric disorders, clinical applicability is currently limited by high response (...)

Hudson will deliver a session that will give you the chance to explore and learn about Assessment Centres including how they are used, what to expect and how to make the most out them.

You will also have the opportunity to ask any questions related to: typical activities in an assessment (...)

NMR spectroscopy finds its most prominent applications in structural biology and systems biology. Structural biology is a well-travelled realm, but NMR-based metabolomics and the application of NMR in systems biology are relatively new and less known lands. This presentation will touch on various (...)

Building upon the theoretical concepts that underpin this still youthful and dynamic discipline, this unit broadens and extends understanding of the practica application of advanced modern epidemiological principles. Current issues in epidemiology will be presented, with particular emphasis on (...)

From the odd to the mundane, new forms of life are emerging in labs, workshops and studios. With the promise of exploitation for health and wealth we are seeing life as it previously never existed, albeit smothered in hyperbole, rhetoric and speculation. How do cultures such as Indigenous Australia (...)

The Seminar: Diet as a preventative tool or for health improvement is not new, but the effect of diet or diet components on the gut microbiota is still poorly understood. The understanding of such effects is becoming ever more important as the gut microbiota's effect on host health becomes more (...)

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy may not be the first technique on your list for understanding ligand-target interactions but it is a powerful approach that is capable of monitoring and understanding interactions at the atomic level. This presentation outlines two on-going projects (...)

This presentation will address selected case studies applied to a range of different problems of relevance to materials science, catalysis, environmental applications or pharmaceutical and petroleum industries, difficult to solve by other solid-state characterisation tools. The presentation is (...)

Stem cells rely on, and are finely tuned to respond to, their immediate microenvironment, which can be exceedingly complex. Biomaterials must present cells with finely tuned mechanical cues to systematically examine their control over development or pathological insults. In this talk I will (...)

The GeneMappers conference has traditionally focused on novel concepts for the genetic dissection of common complex human diseases. This year the emphasis of the conference will be on exploring these themes in detail, with a particular focus on the contemporary methods and techniques that will take (...)

Can whoever gets this email please contact Kelly McManus so we can figure out who the event approvers for animal biology are!

Professor Dr Magdalena Götz is the Director of the Institute for Stem Cell Research at the Helmholtz Zentrum München, German Research Center for Environmental Health, and Chair of the (...)

Information on ecosystem services has often been unavailable at the site scale, where most land-use decisions are made. Thus there is an urgent need for simple, and yet robust protocols for assessing ecosystem services that are adaptable to a wide range of sites, are replicable over time, and are (...)

Dr Renee Firman is interested in why male mice emit ultrasonic vocalisations (which have been described to be synonymous to bird songs) when they encounter females. Her talk will explore current evidence that suggests that females use male vocalisations to assess the compatibility and quality of (...)

Improve your knowledge of clinical research methods and develop a critical approach to the incorporation of research into clinical care decisions. Outcomes include increased competence in preparing a competitive research grant proposal, from research question refinement to study design, systematic (...)

#GivingTuesday is a movement to celebrate and provide incentives to give. It will culminate with a global day of giving on the first Tuesday of December every year. The idea is to transform how people think about, talk about and participate in the giving season.

What can you do? Can you (...)

Professor Stephen Hill studied Pharmacology in Bristol (BSc, 1976) and then undertook PhD studies in the Department of Pharmacology in Cambridge (PhD 1979). After postdoctoral studies in Cambridge (1979-1981) he was appointed to a lecturer position in the Department of Pharmacy at the University of (...)

Interested in developing and funding international research collaborations, particularly in the fields of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences? Come hear how others have been able to do so, and learn how you can be more strategic in your approach.

The Seminar will run from 12:00 - 1:00 (...)
