Follow the Tulip, researching into the textile manufacturer Henry Nathan by Pierce, Gina

“…The use of the textile archive as a means for exploring industrial and social history is less established, and this research demonstrates how the tangible evidence can be a tool for an in depth study of a particular manufacturer in the mid-twentieth century. In following up the trail provided by a small number of fabric samples in the Parker Knoll archive (Special Collections, 2018) new findings have been discovered, that have an impact on a national historic collection. …”

Conformational changes involved in signal transduction in avian cryptochromes by Gehrckens, AS

“…</p> <p>Using a range of complementary techniques, this thesis aims to elucidate protein conformational changes as the first step in signal transduction in several cryptochrome species finding similar changes in the same loop regions across multiple proteins, tackled the question whether a functional dimer might exist in the context of magnetoreception and found two important residues involved in dimerisation, and lastly used the finding that this dimerisation process is light-induced to start investigating the interaction surfaces in these dimeric structures.…”
