Topics will include Principal Component Analysis, Factor Analysis, Canonical Variate (or Canonical Correlation) Analysis, Discriminant Analysis, Cluster Analysis (...)

The MSGPP collaboration has used structural genomics, targeted genetics, and synthetic chemistry to identify, validate, and exploit potential drug targets in parasitic protozoa. One notable success from this approach has targeted Calcium-Dependent Protein Kinases (CDPKs), a class of proteins found (...)

DNA methylation (5mC) is a gene regulatory mechanism that is associated with repressed transcription through recruitment of methyl binding proteins or by physically blocking transcription factor binding. DNA methylation typically occurs in the CpG dinucleotide context where a methyl group is added (...)

Biological function in organisms and cells is maintained by signalling pathways of inter-related proteins responding to internal and external stimuli. The activities of many of the proteins involved in cell signalling are susceptible to redox changes caused by reversible oxidation of protein thiol (...)

My research interests over the last 4 years have been in three distinct and different areas. In this talk I will highlight the recent progress made in all three areas.

S1. Chemical properties of the (001) β-Ga2O3 surface Monoclinic β-Ga2O3 is an n-type semiconductor (...)

Expand your understanding of economic appraisal of health systems including cost effectiveness, cost utility and cost benefit analysis, and the role it plays in decision making and policy setting.

The School of Population Health offers a range of 5 day fulltime out of semester units for (...)

Previous work in our lab, using fluorescent adenosine receptor agonists and antagonists, has provided novel insights into the allosteric regulation of adenosine A3 (A3AR) and A1 (A1AR) receptors by allosteric ligands and receptor dimerization in single living cells (1-2). We have also used a (...)

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 (...)

Twin-arginine translocation pathways have been identified in all domains of life. However in the eukaryotic domain they were thought to be only found in chloroplasts even though almost all plant mitochondrial genomes encode for a TatC protein. Our recent work has demonstrated that in Arabidopsis (...)

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 (...)

Professor Takayanagi combines his experiences as an orthopaedic surgeon and an immunologist; He studied in the laboratory of Professor Tadatsugu Taniguchi (The University of Tokyo) the mechanism of bone destruction in rheumatoid arthritis, which focused on the regulation of osteoclasts by T cells (...)

Is it unethical to conduct studies that are too large or too small? If so, how do we find the right balance based on the available resources? This seminar provides an overview of sample size calculations and demonstrates how to use the free "PS" software to perform simple sample size (...)

Our Science Experience event is now open for registration!

UWA/ConocoPhillips Science/Engineering Experience - 19-21 January 2016!

Budding scientists/engineers in Years 9/10 (this year) are welcomed to UWA’s campus for three days of fun and to fuel their passion for science (...)

The Gold Standard GAMSAT will host a GAMSAT Practice Test & Review seminar on Feb 4 - 5, 2016 at University Hall, University of Western Australia. The course will start at 9 am and ends at 6 pm daily.

The tutor of this course is Dr. Brett Ferdinand, author of the Gold Standard (...)

Coastal states and communities must increasingly adapt to the hazards of a variable and changing climate, including sea level rise and an increased incidence of coastal storms and flooding. Natural (or green) infrastructure is often promoted as a means to enhance resilience while providing (...)

A FREE community event celebrating the abundance and synergy of life within our very own unique Western Australian soils. Bring along a picnic (or buy food onsite) to share under the stars in the spectacular grounds of UWA for a very special outdoor viewing of Deborah Koons Garcia’s incredibly (...)

The next meeting of the Faculty of Science, Women in Science group will be a morning tea. All are welcome.

The morning tea is a great opportunity to network with other scientists in an informal setting. We will be discussing the implementation of the Faculty of Science mentoring (...)
