[accordion] Workshop Extreme Value Statistics John H.J. Einmahl Tilburg University We begin with a detailed introduction to univariate and multivariate extreme value statistics. Since we assume basic knowledge of univariate extreme value theory, we put emphasis on the multivariate case, which will be for notational convenience the…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/molecular-biology/dr-stiaan-labuschagne-group

In our group we focus on the metabolic changes cancer cells undergo during tumour development and progression. We are particularly interested in two areas. Firstly, the effect of the tumour microenvironment on metastasis and therapy resistance and secondly, the role of one carbon metabolism on cancer cell mitochondrial function The effect of…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/molecular-biology/members-dr-stiaan-labuschagne

Research Background to research Virology and Neurobiology Virology and molecular neurobiology are distinct fields of study, but they intersect in their investigation of different aspects of viruses and the nervous system. Virology examines viruses' structure, replication, and interactions with host cells, while molecular neurobiology…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/molecular-biology/aprof-rencia-van-der-sluis-biochemical-genetics
A/Prof Rencia van der Sluis: Biochemical Genetics
Research Background to research What is Biochemical Genetics? Biochemical Genetics is the study of the relationships between genes and enzymes, specifically the role of genes in controlling the steps in biochemical pathways. The focus of our research is to elucidate the role of secondary detoxification pathways in alleviating the symptoms…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/molecular-biology/members-biochemical-genetics

Ongoing projects and collaborations International We are working together with Prof J. O. Sass from the Bonn-Rheinn Sieg University of Applied Sciences in Germany to determine the effect of variants in the glycine N-acyltransferase gene on isovalerylglycine conjugation. This is a less toxic metabolite that is formed in isovaleryl acidemia…http://natural-sciences.nwu.ac.za/molecular-biology/members-virology
