Seabirds and wind - the consequences of extreme prey taxis in a changing climate

Fri, 06 Nov 2015 11:37:00 GMT

As the world’s climate warms due to the emission of greenhouse gases, the distribution and population sizes of the organisms that make up ecosystems are changing. As such, there is an acute need to forecast the responses of organisms to climate change so that they can be mitigated in an effective and timely manner.

An effective vaccination programme for the eradication of foot-and-mouth disease from India

Wed, 13 Jan 2016 11:35:00 GMT

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD) is a global social and economic burden. Worldwide, ~3 billion doses of vaccine are used. The Indian Government plans to use ~800 million doses of trivalent vaccine annually and the UK has a policy encompassing emergency vaccination in case of FMD outbreaks. However, vaccination is constrained by lack of or incomplete inter and intra serotype cross-protection and by cost and vaccine production capacity.

ISSF: Transcriptomic predictors of acquired immunity to Bovine TB in vaccinated Eurasian Badgers

Mon, 01 Feb 2016 16:31:00 GMT

This project aims to establish an immunome for the Eurasian badger (Meles meles) and to identify immune profiles that are associated with protective immunity to Mycobacterium bovis (the causative agent of Bovine tuberculosis, bTB).

Building the first theoretical and experimental database for diatom short-term responses to changes in nutrient availability

Tue, 02 Feb 2016 10:52:00 GMT

Marine phytoplankton is responsible for approximately half of global net primary productivity, and play a key role in important biogeochemical cycles. In temperate areas, this is mostly due to diatom dominance.
