Monomeric alpha-synuclein (aSyn) is a well characterised protein that importantly binds to lipids. aSyn monomers assemble into amyloid fibrils which are localised to lipids and organelles in insoluble structures found in Parkinson’s disease patient’s brains. Previous work to address pathological aSyn-lipid interactions has focused on using synthetic lipid membranes, which lack the complexity of ...

In this thesis, we have explored the possibility of bringing CSP-like concurrency modeling to an embedded environment. With the growth of IoT and embedded software, many of the hardships that come with concurrent coding in an inherently event-driven environment become more apparent. Convoluted and complex code is often used to handle the many fallacies of concurrency. We are solving this problem by ...
