Our work focuses on the genetics and physiology of animal circulatory systems and ageing. We're especially interested in understanding mechanisms underpinning human cardiovascular physiology and primarily use  Drosophila melanogaster as a model

The work has been funded by the British Heart Foundation, Kidney Research UK, SULSA, The Carnegie Foundation, Tuberous Sclerosis UK and the CB Dennis Trust -  as well as locally by the University. 

We're in the Department of Life and Environmental Sciences within the Faculty of Science and Technology.
