New approaches to anti-obesity therapeutics – Part 2
Obesity is a medical condition defined as the excessive accumulation of fat that presents a risk to health.

Obesity is a medical condition defined as the excessive accumulation of fat that presents a risk to human health.
“Dementia: a growing problem in South Africa and the world”
Prosperous people live longer and old age carries a high risk of dementia, a condition that is so far neither preventable nor curable.
Making Mouse Models That Better Reflect Human Metabolic and Neurological Diseases
In addition to their well known functions in the controlling infections, immune cells and inflammatory reactions play crucial roles in metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases, such as obesity and Alzheimer’s disease.
The Clocks of Life
Phileas Fogg, the main character in Jules Verne’s acclaimed novel Around the World in Eighty Days, could not have suffered from jet-lag during his trip, despite crossing multiple time zones.
The Anthropocene, the Climate Emergency and International Relations: Brazil and South Africa in a Changing World Order
The main objective of this project is the finalization of a monograph analysing the linkages between the anthropocene, climate change and International Relations.
Understanding Alzheimer’s Disease: Basic mechanisms and clinical developments
The abnormal processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP), aggregation of Aβ, Tau hyper phosphorylation and propagation of these abnormally folded proteins have been collectively recognized as hallmarks of the initial, biochemical phase of Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) [De Strooper 2016].
