  • Modelling the Short QT Syndrome Gene Mutations

    And Their Role in Cardiac Arrhythmogenesis

    by Ismail Adeniran ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The Short QT Syndrome (SQTS) is characterized by abbreviated QT intervals on the electrocardiogram, increased risk of cardiac arrhythmias and sudden death. Although several gene mutations have been identified in SQT patients, the role of these mutations in promoting arrhythmogenesis is still not completely understood. Consequently, this thesis employs multidisciplinary approaches to develop a 3D ... Read more

  • Mathematical Modelling of the Cell Cycle Stress Response

    by Elahe Radmaneshfar ...
    Series series Physics and Astronomy (R0)
    The cell cycle is a sequence of biochemical events that are controlled by complex but robust molecular machinery. This enables cells to achieve accurate self-reproduction under a broad range of conditions. Environmental changes are transmitted by molecular signaling networks, which coordinate their actions with the cell cycle.This work presents the first description of two complementary ... Read more
