Division of Molecular Microbiology

Grant Buchanan, Tracy Palmer’s research assistant in MMB: Provided us with various lab equipment such as plates, competent cells,etc. He also showed us how to purify proteins.

Marta Albareda: Showed us how to carry out a two hybrid system assay which would have proved the interactions between two proteins.

Lucia Licandro Lado: Provided us with a couple of SDS gels, and allowed us to use her bench space and equipment from time to time.

A general thank you to the whole MMB for helping us orientate ourselves in the labs, for answering our questions and helping with various lab techniques.

Centre of Human Anatomy and Identification

Niamh Nic Deiad, Professor of Forensic Science and Director of Research: Supported the project from the start, giving us full access to her expertise in the area as well as her very long list of relevant contacts.

Sue Black, Professor of Anatomy and Forensic Anthropology:

Lucina Hackman, Lecturer in Human Identification: Provided valuable information on bone cut investigations as well as advice and equipment for the bone incision experiment.
