My research began in parasite immunology before transitioning into Neuroendocrinology during my PhD, where I investigated brain-derived peptides for their diagnostic and therapeutic potential. Further training in molecular and computational techniques enabled me to secure funding to focus on amyloid-ß.Through bioinformatics and laboratory work, I identified a highly toxic phosphorylated form of amyloid-ß, plus its interactions with antioxidant and kinases enzymes. I also discovered a novel neuropeptide, kissorphin, which blocked amyloid-ß toxicity. Additionally, the body’s endocannabinoids were shown to have neuroprotective effects against amyloid-ß.These discoveries support the idea that the body has built-in defenses against amyloid-ß toxicity, offering potential to exploit in Alzheimer’s disease.Nat joined the University of Chichester as Professor in Biomedical Science in 2024 with the aim to contribute to the establishment of the Community Diagnostics Centre and to develop new Biomedical Science courses at the University. He originally trained in Biological Sciences, specialising in Zoology, by undertaking a BSc at the University of Edinburgh. This was followed by a PhD in Neuroendocrinology at the University of London, where he was the first Marjorie A. Robinson Fellow funded by the Society for Endocrinology.Nat has gained experience in Clinical Biochemistry at NHS Departments in both Newcastle and London, and worked at several Universities across London and Leeds. He has built an international reputation in the Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery and Diagnostics research field. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/chichester/amyloid-ß-the-poison-in-your-human-machine/100001777758566729 - **Event Categories**: workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Chichester - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: The Showroom, University of Chichester - **lat**: 50.8450307 - **long**: -0.7728918 - **full address**: The Showroom, University of Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Amyloid-ß, the poison in your human machine - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events7/banners/36b5aa70fd27aa9993c691c41e1df79a07fc3e22aee9f5fe6f8b51a9b4af90d6-rimg-w1200-h600-dc4056a4-gmir.jpg?v=1761945138 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Amyloid-ß, the poison in your human machine being held? - **A:** Amyloid-ß, the poison in your human machine takes place on Thu, 27 Nov, 2025 at 06:00 pm to Thu, 27 Nov, 2025 at 07:30 pm at The Showroom, University of Chichester, College Lane, Chichester, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Amyloid-ß, the poison in your human machine? - **A:** Amyloid-ß, the poison in your human machine is organized by University of Chichester. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
