Dr Gwyneth Zai My research area focuses on the genetics and pharmacogenetics of psychiatric disorders. Almost all psychiatric disorders are complex and heterogeneous in nature and my research aims to identify homogeneous phenotypes, specifically cognitive profi...
Adriana Zainurin My research focuses on the relationship between brain inflammation, blood brain barrier permeability and cognition in cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). More specifically, the research aims to investigate whether brain inflammation and blood br...
Dr Rashid Zaman FRCPsych I am a psychiatrist and researcher interested in collaborative and translational research in number of psychiatric disorders, including, ADHD, Bipolar Affective Disorder, Depression, OCD and Schizophrenia.
I am also intersted in neuromodulation t...
Dr Shahid Zaman The main theme of our research is to understand the role of amyloid, tau, inflammation and mitochondrial dysfunction in the genesis of cognitive impairment and dementia in people with Down's syndrome.
Julia M Zbiegly Neurotrophin BDNF receptor Tyrosine receptor kinase B (TrkB) is a cardinal regulator of neuronal survival and synaptic plasticity in mature neuronal systems. In neurodegeneration and ageing, its expression and signalling is impaired. Extensive lit...
Natalia Zdorovtsova My research focuses on establishing links between attributes of brain structure, brain function, and behaviour in children with neurodevelopmental conditions like ADHD and autism. I am interested in applying complex systems approaches - such as Co...
Elena Zevgolatakou Investigation of the behavioural and neural basis of recovery in post-stroke aphasia.
Xinhu Zhang My research targets the negative feelings people can get from reward loss, which relates to sadness and is one of the core features of depression. I am testing the hypothesis that altered activity in the lateral orbitofrontal cortex (latOFC) repor...
Dr Chao Zhao My research focuses on mechanism of remyelination of central nervous system following demyelination in various conditions. After demyelinating injury, the system activates a repair process, which involves oligodendrocyte progenitor cells turning i...
Ms Ziyue Zhou (Sabrina) The hypothalamic arcuate nucleus kisspeptin neurons, also known as "the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) pulse generator" are responsible for driving the pulsatile release of reproductive hormones such as luteinizing hormone (LH) in the gener...
