Application and integration of bioinformatic strategies towards central and peripheral proteomic profiling for diagnosis and drug discovery in schizophrenia
(2018-07-21)Proteomic profiling studies of schizophrenia have the potential to shed further light on this debilitating and poorly understood condition which affects up to 1% of the world’s population. However, recent studies suggest ... -
Vapour-Liquid Equilibria within Nanoporous Media
(2018-07-20)This thesis is dedicated to the exploration of fluid phases confined in nanoporous materials using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) techniques, with an aim to benefit catalysis research. Included in this report are studies ... -
Design of flow processes for C–H activation-type reactions
(2018-05-04)The last 15 years have seen tremendous advances in using different metal catalysts to functionalize traditionally unreactive C–H bonds. Given the high potential of these seemingly ideal strategic bond forming reactions, ... -
The involvement of microglial activation in schizophrenia
(2018-07-20)Abnormal activation of brain microglial cells is widely implicated in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia. The disrupted balance of microglia phenotypes has been hypothesized to influence the clinical course of the disease ...
