Meet Neelima Sharma, Lecturer in Computational Biology at UCL 🧬
Her work explores how mechanics shape the evolution, development, and function of biological systems, from animal morphology and motor control to vertebrate musculoskeletal morphogenesis.

Be still my beating heart! Super interesting and important. The Mosers show that when rats switch between familiar rooms, each grid module shifts phase independently — and that differential shift across modules drives global remapping in hippocampal place cells.

A new study, led by Xavier Jenkins, a postdoctoral fellow in the Museum’s Division of Paleontology, finds the ancient reptile Eunotosaurus africanus is not in the turtle tree of life—reshaping how scientists think about turtle evolution. Read about the findings in our latest blog post.👇

Heavy caring responsibilities reduce brain function for people aged 50 & over, whereas light caring duties can actually be beneficial to middle-aged and older people’s mental abilities, new research led by Dr @baowenxue.bsky.social from @ucliehc.bsky.social finds www.theguardian.com/society/2026...
Laura Porro from UCL's Centre for Integrative Anatomy was filmed talking about anatomy and fluffy dinosaurs with CBeebies' Maddie Moate - and helping Maddie to dissect a pig's brain!
The Centre for Integrative Anatomy is committed to improvement in all areas of sustainability, and takes part in three campaigns that support this aim: LEAF, Green Impact and Green DiSC.
