Research Interests:Dr Natacha Carragher joined NDARC in November 2008 and is employed as a Senior Research Fellow. Her research interests include the epidemiology of mood disorders and post-traumatic stress disorder, discriminating between substance-induced and independent major depressive disorder, and the application of latent variable modelling techniques to epidemiological data. She is also...
Research Interests
I am a neuroscientist and my main research interest is in the organisation of the brain network that controls the autonomic and behavioural responses to emotional stress (anxiety, fear). I am primarily interested in cardiovascular and thermogenic responses to stress. We work in rats.

Research Interests:
The broad research aim is to understand motor control and its disorders in humans, using both normal volunteers and selected patients with well-characterised abnormalities. One major theme is the role of vestibular reflexes in motor control as well as their diagnostic role, a second is understanding the causes of postural instability in neurological disease such as Parkinson's...

Research Interests
Our main focus is to identify the underlying disease mechanism(s) of Parkinson’s Disease so as to identify and develop Neuroprotective therapies, especially those to slow/stop disease progression. Intensive...
I am an applied mathematician. I use dynamical systems analyses, stochastic modelling and queueing theory, amongst other techniques to answer questions arising from fields other than mathematics. My research is in mathematical modelling, particularly in biomedicine and biology. The investigations in which I am currently involved range from understanding the dynamics of fundamental protein-...
