Meaningfully Embedding Industry-Relevant Life Science Skills in the Undergraduate Biosciences Curriculum (2023)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Garden, C., Campbell Casey, S., & MacCallum, J. (2023, June). Meaningfully Embedding Industry-Relevant Life Science Skills in the Undergraduate Biosciences Curriculum. Presented at QAA Scotland's 5th International Enhancement Conference, Glasgow

For more than a decade I and colleagues have been working in partnership with the Scottish Lifesciences industry and other stakeholders to develop relevant, industry informed biosciences curricula at Edinburgh Napier University. This work has also be... Read More about Meaningfully Embedding Industry-Relevant Life Science Skills in the Undergraduate Biosciences Curriculum.

Investigating the role of cell fate regulator ASCL1 in driving and maintaining lethal neuroendocrine castrate resistant prostate cancer (2022)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Bruce, I., Pang, L., Poole, A., & Fraser, J. (2022, November). Investigating the role of cell fate regulator ASCL1 in driving and maintaining lethal neuroendocrine castrate resistant prostate cancer. Poster presented at Society for Endocrinology BES 2022, Harrogate

Neuroendocrine castrate resistant prostate cancer (NE-CRPC) is a lethal CRPC subtype that arises as prostate cancer cells transdifferentiate to neuroendocrine cells, evading the potent selective pressure of androgen deprivation therapies (ADT). Curre... Read More about Investigating the role of cell fate regulator ASCL1 in driving and maintaining lethal neuroendocrine castrate resistant prostate cancer.

Preferential activation of HIF-2 adaptive mechanisms in neuronal-like cells in response to hypoxia (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fraser, J., Baudel, M., Rae, M., Darlison, M., & Poole, A. (2017, April). Preferential activation of HIF-2 adaptive mechanisms in neuronal-like cells in response to hypoxia. Poster presented at British Neuroscience Association - festival of neuroscience 2017

Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability worldwide. Blockage, or occlusion, of cerebral arteries causes irreversible neuronal damage as disrupted blood flow starves neurones of oxygen and glucose. The hypoxia inducible factors (HIFs) are mas...

The expression of the chloride co-transporters NKCC1 and KCC2 is reversed in the penumbra following (2017)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Baudel, M., Rae, M., Fraser, J., & Poole, A. (2017, April). The expression of the chloride co-transporters NKCC1 and KCC2 is reversed in the penumbra following. Presented at BNA 2017

Stroke is one of the major causes of death and disability worldwide. The harm caused by the interruption of blood flow to the brain unfolds in the subsequent hours and days, so it is critical to identify new therapeutic targets that could reduce neur...

Investigating the molecular mechanisms driving neuroendocrine differentiation in androgen deprived prostate cancer cells (2016)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Sutton, J., Hutchison, G., Fraser, J., & Poole, A. (2016, November). Investigating the molecular mechanisms driving neuroendocrine differentiation in androgen deprived prostate cancer cells. Presented at National Cancer Research Institute Conference, Liverpool, UK

Background: Neuroendocrine differentiation is commonplace in prostate tumors treated with androgen deprivation therapy and is associated with castrate-resistant disease progression and poor prognosis. The molecular mechanisms driving neuroendocrine d... Read More about Investigating the molecular mechanisms driving neuroendocrine differentiation in androgen deprived prostate cancer cells.
