Case Studies
CoMPLEX allows students to work at a research centre outside the UK to enrich their research experience and help develop their scientific career. CoMPLEX supports visits to any international University or Research Centre.
- CoMPLEX International Research Fellowships: Samantha Lee
Samantha spent a summer at the Department of Neuroscience and Cell Biology at Montana State University. There, she aided in the creation of a FRET-based sensor of peptide secretion. - CoMPLEX International Research Fellowships: Sam Tazzyman
Sam visited the Mathematical Biology Laboratory of the Kyushu University, Japan. There, Sam collaborated with world-renowned theoretical biologist Professor Yoh Iwasa. - CoMPLEX International Research Fellowships: Alexander Stewart
Alex went to the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot, Israel, one of the world’s top ranking research centres at the heart of advances in the science of complex systems.
Summer Intern Projects
Summer studentships allow undergraduate students to experience research. Students work with researchers at CoMPLEX on an 8 week project.
- Summer Intern Project 2009: Nathan Topping
The aim of Nathan's project was to use software run on the UCL supercomputer, Legion, to calculate the infrared spectra of the amino acids of interest in enzymes. - Summer Intern Project 2009 - Raunaq Malhotra, Guldana Nurakayeva, Adil Berikuly
To facilitate analysis of the large amount of data in movies of the developing Drosophila eye, the students prototyped algorithms for automatic analysis and quantification.
