Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a common experimental method for investigating rates of molecular redistribution in biological systems. Many mathematical models of FRAP have been developed, the purpose of which is usually the est...

An optogenetic method for interrogating YAP1 and TAZ nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling (2021)
Journal Article
Dowbaj, A. M., Jenkins, R. P., Williamson, D., Heddleston, J. M., Ciccarelli, A., Fallesen, T., …Sahai, E. (2021). An optogenetic method for interrogating YAP1 and TAZ nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling. Journal of Cell Science, 134(13), Article 5520657. https://doi.org/10.1242/jcs.253484

The shuttling of transcription factors and transcriptional regulators into and out of the nucleus is central to the regulation of many biological processes. Here we describe a new method for studying the rates of nuclear entry and exit of transcripti... Read More about An optogenetic method for interrogating YAP1 and TAZ nuclear-cytoplasmic shuttling.

Reduced biomechanical models for precision-cut lung-slice stretching experiments (2021)
Journal Article
Pybus, H. J., Tatler, A. L., Edgar, L. T., O’Dea, R. D., & Brook, B. S. (2021). Reduced biomechanical models for precision-cut lung-slice stretching experiments. Journal of Mathematical Biology, 82(5), Article 35. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00285-021-01578-2

Precision-cut lung-slices (PCLS), in which viable airways embedded within lung parenchyma are stretched or induced to contract, are a widely used ex vivo assay to investigate bronchoconstriction and, more recently, mechanical activation of proremodel...

Reinforcement Learning approaches to hippocampus-dependent flexible spatial navigation (2021)
Journal Article
Bast, T., Coombes, S., O’Dea, R., & Tessereau, C. (2021). Reinforcement Learning approaches to hippocampus-dependent flexible spatial navigation. Brain and Neuroscience Advances, 5, https://doi.org/10.1177/2398212820975634

Humans and non-human animals show great flexibility in spatial navigation, including the ability to return to specific locations based on as few as one single experience. To study spatial navigation in the laboratory, watermaze tasks, in which rats h... Read More about Reinforcement Learning approaches to hippocampus-dependent flexible spatial navigation.
