Welcome

Welcome to the 2nd annual Barts Neuroscience Symposium. We want to share and extend the sense of mystery that surrounds the study of the brain. The rapid advances in neuroscience are opening new, unexplored vistas – even deeper mys-teries, perhaps, or fresh territory for young researchers to make their mark.

We are delighted to have more than 50 posters being presented by young re-searchers from all over the country. The scientists who will address you in the afternoon work at the interfaces between neuroscience and the cutting edge of re-lated disciplines – pharmacology, radio-imaging, epigenetics, robotics, and super-computing. However, they are not merely pre-eminent in their fields. Their work addresses important questions about humans and our interaction with the world around us. We hope you leave today enthused with wonder and excitement and with a burning desire to get more involved. We would like to thank the QMBL Neurosoc Committee, in particular Milo Ko-stusiak and Chirag Haria, the Blizard Institute for their continued support, and our generous sponsors without whom the day would not have been possible.

“Think of the Soul; I swear to you that body of yours gives proportions to your Soul somehow to live in other spheres; I do not know how, but I know it is so.”

Walt Whitman, Leaves Of Grass (1867)


Queen Mary and Barts and The London Neuroscience Society (QMBL NeuroSoc) was founded in 2009 with the hopes of creating a platform for both medical and science students where they could share their interest in the field of neurosciences. Our aim is to support students’ interest in all areas of the neurosciences, ranging from basic science to clinical and the translational aspects.

In QMBL Neuroscience Society, we bring a variety of events to both Queen Mary and Barts students by inviting guest speakers for specialty talks, organising skills workshops and by holding monthly journal clubs. We invite patients with neurological disorders to speak about their experiences in order for students to develop a deeper understanding of the impact of chronic disorders. Our monthly journal clubs, which bring together students, researches and clinicans, are an excellent opportunity for students to critically review a primary research paper to their peers, followed by the debate and discussion.

But we’re not all about work! Although we pride ourselves in being an established academic society, we realise the importance of living a university life in its full potential. NeuroSoc socials are a great way to meet students of differing ages and backgrounds who come together by their mutual passion for neurosciences.

As one of the member universities in the recently launched London Students’ Neuroscience Network (LSNN), a collaborative project between King’s College London, Imperial College London, Queen Mary University and University College London, QMBL NeuroSoc aim to encourage communication between students interested in Neuroscience across the universities throughout London.

For more details on joining NeuroSoc or how to get in touch please visit our website www.qmblneurosoc.com.

We hope to see you at one of our events!

BARTS NEUROSCIENCE SYMPOSIUM 2014 3

The Neurological Tradition at The Royal LondonThe Royal London Hospital has distinguished history which has placed it at the fore-front of research in clinical neurosciences. Amongst others it has been home to Lord Russell Brain after whom a named lecture has been inaugurated. The timeline below, drawn from a historical article written by Michael Swash (Emeritus Chair of Neurol-ogy) outlines the major figures who have worked here. We thank Professor Swash for his permission in using this material.

The Beginnings

The London Hospital was found-ed in 1740 where there was a prominent focus on Neurology

from its roots. John Andrée, one of the hospital’s first physicians,

published a two-volume book on epilepsy and related diseases in

1753.

James Parkinson(1755-1824)

A physician originating from The London first described paralysis agitans in 1817. Later, Jean-Martin Charcot went on to pro-vide a more complete schemata of clinical examination, including the observation of rigidity.

William John Little(1810-1894)

A surgeon at the London with a special interest in orthopaedics,

described cerebral palsy and rec-ognised its association with birth

trauma and hypoxia. He went on to found the Royal National

Orthopaedic Hospital in London

Warren Tay(1844-1927)

Warren Tay, a surgeon and dermatologist, characterised the fundoscopic appearance of Tay-Sachs disease, outlining its familial inheritance.


Sir Jonathan Hutchinson (1828-1913) and Hughlings Jackson (1836-1911)

Sir Jonathan Hutchinson founded the Neurological Society of London and contributed to the first edition of Brain, a journal founded by Lord Brain. Hutchin-son encouraged Hughlings Jack-son to join him and together they coded many clinical phenomena including disorders of motor control and right hemisphere functions.

Hugh Cairns(1896-1952)

The neurosurgical unit at the London was founded by Cairns (1896-1952). Cairns, an Austral-ian Rhodes scholar, first spent a year in pathology with Turnbull, and then worked in general and renal surgery at the London. Prior to his taking up this appointment as Neurosurgeon, the hospital governors sent him to Boston in 1926 to work with Harvey Cushing, so that on his return he could introduce the innovative techniques pioneered by Cushing to Brtiain.

Russell Brain(1895-1966)

Russell Brain joined the Neurol-ogy staff at The London writing

key texts on neurological topics, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. After which, Michael Swash was appointed as the third Chair of

Neurology in 1972.


Neuroscienceat Queen MaryBarts and The London has a long and rich history in neurology (see page 6 for some highlights). Today, neuroscience at Queen Mary is a partnership between the School of Biological and Chemical Sciences (SBCS), Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry and Barts Health NHS Trust.

Barts and The London’s largest research institute, the Blizard Institute, is a cen-tre of excellence in research: more than 80% of its output has been recognised as ‘world class’ in the latest Research Assessment Exercise. Neuroscience at the Blizard focuses on medical themes: trauma, inflammation, stem cells, genomics and cancer. Researchers based at the SBCS focus on basic neurobiology – de-velopmental neuroscience, sensory physiology, neuropeptide signalling and neu-roethology – as well as experimental and behavioural psychology. Neuroscience research at the SBCS involves a unique range of model organisms, including insects, crustaceans, echinoderms, finches and zebra fish.

Our collaborative spirit extends beyond East London. Last year Barts and The


London joined UCL Partners, an innovative partnership that helps researchers un-lock funding, accelerate research and work together. The goal is to translate cut-ting edge research and innovation into measurable health gains for patients and populations – in London, across the UK, and globally.

A Neuroscience MSc course is available both for intercalating medical students and as a postgraduate study option. Neuroscience PhD programmes exist at both the School of Medicine and Dentistry and SBCS.

The New Life Sciences InitiativeRecently, Queen Mary have announced an exciting new Life Sciences Initiative, which will encourage cross-disciplinary research in the natural, social and bio-medical sci-ences, and ultimately drive innovations in healthcare. This huge new investment will lead to the appointment of more than 100 extra academic staff, the creation of around 1,500 life sciences undergraduate courses, and at least 500 postgraduate places. Neuroscience research will form a key part of the initiative.

Public engagementQueen Mary College was originally established to serve the population of East End of London. That mission continues today and is best exemplified by the award winning Centre for the Cell, an educational facility suspended above the open laboratories in the Blizard Institute. Thousands of local school children have visited and many have been inspired to pursue a scientific education. Researchers from the Blizard volunteer as guides.

more than 80% of its output has been

recognised as ‘world class’

Prof. David ClaytonProfessor of Neuroscience at Queen Mary, University of London

Professor Clayton obtained his PhD with Prof. James E. Darnell Jr. (Rockefeller University, New York, NY) in 1985, and shortly after that launched the first inves-tigations of how genes function in the brain of songbirds. His work led to the first functional characterization of a gene now known to be central to Parkinson’s Dis-ease (alpha-synuclein), and the discovery of genes that play an active role in vocal communication. In 2003, he organized a broad set of international collaborations which led to the complete sequencing of the songbird (zebra finch) genome. He is a Fellow of both the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research and the Ameri-can Association for the Advancement of Science. Professor Clayton has recently moved to Queen Mary’s, University of London, with the goal of strengthening the bridge between ethology (the study of natural behavior), neuroscience and human psychology.

He will talk to us about how environment interacts with genes to determine how songbirds sing - and the implications of this for human behaviour.


Prof. Nick FoxProfessor of Neurology, MRC Senior Clinical Fellow Institute of Neurology, University College London, Hon. Consultant Neurologist, National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery, Queen Square, London

Professor Fox’s first degree was in Physics and Physiology from Cambridge. He subsequently graduated with honours in medicine from the University of London and then specialised in cognitive neurology. He is currently Professor of Neurol-ogy and MRC Senior Clinical Fellow at the Institute of Nerulogy, University College London. Since 1993, he has held Research Fellowships from the Alzheimer’s Soci-ety and the Medical Research Council (MRC). He co-chairs the Research Advisory Committee of the Alzheimer’s Society and is a member of Alzheimer’s Research UK’s Scientific Advisory Board. He has been an advisor to the NIH and an invited expert to the FDA and EMEA. He is the only non-US member of the MR imaging core of the Alzheimer’s Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI).

He will talk to us about the latest advances in neuroimaging in dementia patients, and how this can improve diagnosis and help us understand disease processes to lead to better treatments.


Prof. David NuttEdmond J. Safra Chair in Neuropsychopharmacology, Imperial College

London.

Professor Nutt completed his medical training at Guy’s Hospital London, continu-ing in neurology to MRCP. After becoming a lecturer at Oxford and Wellcome Senior Fellow in psychiatry, he moved to the USA and spent two years as Chief of the Section of Clinical Science in the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism at the NIH. On returning to England in 1988 he set up the Psychop-harmacology Unit in Bristol University, before moving to Imperial College London in December 2008 where he leads a similar group with a particular focus on brain imaging, especially PET.

Professor Nutt is currently Chair of the Independent Scientific Committee on Drugs (ISCD) and Vice-President of the European Brain Council. Previously he was Presi-dent of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology (ECNP), the British Neuroscience Association and British Association of Psychopharmacology. In ad-dition he is a Fellow of the Royal Colleges of Physicians and of Psychiatrists and a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences. He has edited the Journal of Psy-chopharmacology for over two decades and acts as the psychiatry drugs advisor to the British National Formulary. He has published over 400 original research papers, a similar number of reviews and books chapters, eight government reports on drugs and 27 books. He will talk about his group’s research into neuro-psychiatric disorders, which merges pharmacological approaches with state-of-the-art imaging techniques, with a particular emphasis on disorders such as addiction, dementia, schizophre-nia and affective disorders.


Prof. Daniel WolpertProfessor of Engineering (1875), University of Cambridge

Professor Wolpert is an exceptionally distinguished neuroscientist. Having quali-fied as a medical doctor in 1989, he joined the Physiology Department of Oxford University where he received his D.Phil. in 1992. From there he moved to MIT where he worked as a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Brain and Cogni-tive Sciences. Returning to the UK in 1995, he joined UCL’s Sobell Department of Motor Neuroscience as a Lecturer. In 2005 he moved to the University of Cambridge where he is a Fellow of Trinity College and Professor of Engineering (1875). In 2013 he was appointed to the Royal Society Noreen Murray Research Professorship in Neurobiology.

Professor Wolpert was elected a Fellow of the Academy of Medical Sciences in 2004 and a Fellow of the Royal Society in 2012. He was awarded the Royal Society Francis Crick Prize Lecture (2005), the Minerva Foundation Golden Brain Award (2010) and gave the Fred Kavli Distinguished International Scientist Lecture at the Society for Neuroscience (2009).

He will talk to us about how the latest approaches to understanding how the brain controls movement, combining engineering, robotics, virtual reality interfaces and new understanding of basic physiology.


Prof. Richard Frackowiak Department of Clinical Neurosciences, Université de Lausanne (UNIL) and the Centre

Hospitalier Universitaire Vaudois (CHUV).

Professor Frackowiak studied medicine at the University of Cambridge. He joined the Medical Research Council’s Cyclotron Unit at Hammersmith Hospital, London, in 1979, and worked with one of Britain’s first Positron Emission Tomography (PET) scanners. As a former professor at the Institute of Neurology, UCL, he established in 1995 what was to become the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging. Now based at the Universite de Lausanne, Switzerland, he is the lead for the medical application stream of the billion dollar Human Brain Project: a global, collabora-tive effort to pull together all our existing knowledge about the human brain and to reconstruct the brain in supercomputer-based models.

His honorary academic appointments are many, including Adjunct Professor of Clinical Neurology, Cornell University Medical School, New York Hospital, New York, Rogowski Visiting Professor, Yale Medical School (2001), and Norman Ge-schwind Visiting Professor, Beth Israel Hospital, Harvard Medical School (1999). He is the fourth most highly cited British biomedical scientist of the decade 1990-2000.

Professor Frackowiak will talk about the implications of the Human Brain Project for clinical neuroscience.
