    Posted by Physics & Astronomy in Physics and Astronomy Blog on 1 March 2021 Two months in to 2021, and our Leicester Physics community remains distributed far and wide across the UK and beyond.

  • Scientists explore complex pattern of tipping points in the Atlantic’s current system

    New mathematical modelling by University of Leicester of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation – a system of ocean currents – shows greater complexity than previously thought, revealing a hierarchy of irreversible ‘tipping points’

  • GNSS Probe

    GNSSProbe is a new ESA funded study which looks at the potential of satellite navigation signals, to estimate soil water content and to provide a cheap alternative to existing techniques.

  • Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and microbial stress responses

    Antimicrobial resistance is a global issue that requires an in depth understanding of how resistance is acquired by microbes, including when under environmental stress, alongside innovative thinking to target resistance organisms.

  • Research Methods in Cancer Biology

    Module code: MB7003 When a gene is found to be mutated in a cancer, we first need to understand how its protein product functions and then how the mutated protein alters the behaviour of cancer cells. For example, cancer cells show uncontrolled cell proliferation.

  • New way of screening toxic chemicals mimics mammal senses

    Researchers from our University have developed a new approach for analysing toxic chemicals in complex samples that mimics the way mammals smell and taste. The technique could reduce the need for laboratory animals in biomedical research and other areas of chemical testing.
