Dr Paul Badenhorst

Associate Professor

Department of Cancer and Genomic Sciences

Paul Badenhorst is an Associate Professor in the Department of Cancer and Genomic Sciences.

Paul’s field of expertise is in Epigenetics and Development. Paul uses both the Drosophila model system and human cells to investigate how chromatin modifying complexes regulate gene expression to control developmental pathways. He has received major grant funding from Cancer Research UK, the ...

Professor Constanze Bonifer

Emeritus Professor of Experimental Haematology

Department of Cancer and Genomic Sciences

My name is Constanze Bonifer, I am Emeritus Professor of Experimental Haematology in the Department of Cancer and Genomic Sciences  and I am an Honorary Professor at the University of Melbourne, Australia.

Our lab worked on gene regulation in the hematopoietic system. We studied how transcription factors and chromatin components drive differential gene expression during blood cell ...

Dr Saverio Brogna

Dr Saverio Brogna

Reader in RNA Biology
Group Leader

School of Biosciences

I am a Reader in RNA biology. My group's research focuses on understanding the mechanisms that connect pre-mRNA processing with translation and Nonsense Mediated mRNA Decay (NMD). A second interest of the laboratory is understanding the functions of ribosomes and ribosomal proteins within the nucleus.

Professor Steve Busby

Professor Steve Busby

Professor of Biochemistry

School of Biosciences

Research in Steve Busby’s lab is concerned with understanding the molecular mechanisms that control gene expression in bacteria, with particular attention to studying the regulation of transcription initiation in Escherichia coli. Much of the recent work has focussed on the expression of virulence determinants in pathogenic strains.
