معرفی
Charalampos (Babis) Rallis is an Associate Professor in Genetics, Genomics, and Fundamental Cell Biology, and Director of Industrial Innovation at the School of Biological and Behavioural Sciences, Queen Mary University of London. He leads the Rallis Lab, focusing on cellular ageing, senescence, and lifespan regulation via nutrient-responsive pathways like TOR. His research integrates fission yeast (Schizosaccharomyces pombe) and mammalian systems with multi-omics approaches.
Research Interests:
- Ageing mechanisms and age-related diseases
- Metabolic regulation, TOR signaling, and nutrient sensing
- Fission yeast as a model organism
- Microbiome and mycobiome fitness profiling
- Neuronal and cancer biology
Grant Funding:
- £269,451 from BBSRC (2023-2026) for studying subcellular organization and lifespan
- £292,263 from MRC (2023-2025) on mTOR pathway uncoupling mechanisms
Labs/Teams: Rallis Lab (QMUL) and affiliations with the Centre for Molecular Cell Biology and Centre for Evolutionary and Functional Genomics. Collaborations involve multi-omics and network biology approaches to decode senescence and translate findings into age-related disease interventions.
