Alexandra Whittaker is a veterinary scientist and behavioural neuroscientist who researches the impact of neuroimmune alterations on emotion and cognitive processing. She is a European Veterinary Specialist in Animal Welfare Science, Ethics and Law, by virtue of holding diplomate status in this discipline. Alex has significant research expertise in applied animal behaviour and welfare assessment of animals, and leads an independent research group working on multiple projects in these areas. Alex also has an interest in animal law and is developing projects in this domain.

A link has recently been established within patients with general functional gut disorders and decreases in their cognition, with 70% of these patients experiencing psychological comorbidities. Dr Whittaker's research focusses on the effects of inflammatory processes in the gut on patient emotion and cognitive processing, and the neuroimmune mechanisms which contribute to this effect. This work is aimed at identifying ways in which gut-brain axis mechanisms can be targeted in gastrointestinal disease in order to prevent cognitive decline. One specific area where this will have application is in the prevention of 'chemobrain' ; a condition that affects cancer patients treated with chemotherapy agents, and cancer survivors many years after treatment cessation. Cognitive changes in chemobrain may manifest as impairment of patient’s learning and memory, reasoning and visuo-spatial skills amongst others. As a result activities of daily life become more challenging with patients’ ability to work and maintain relationships impacted. This profoundly affects quality of life.
Dr Whittaker also has an interest in animal cognition, affective state and animal welfare, and conducts research investigating these concepts in an applied fashion. Specific areas of research include:
- The neuroimmunological consequences of chemotherapy-induced mucositis in development of 'chemobrain'
- Validation and refinement of novel behavioural assessment tools
- Assessment of positive welfare outcomes
- Pain assessment in animals and comparison of therapeutics
- The legal status of animals- effects on attitudes towards them and their treatment
- The use of online technologies in promoting student learning

Available Research Projects
Project 1 - Understanding the Acute and Chronic Effects of Paediatric Chemotherapy on Cognitive Function in the Developing Brain
Project description: For children who survive childhood cancer, the burden continues, with up to 70% of survivors experiencing chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairment (CICI). CICI impairs attention, and memory, which profoundly impacts academic and social performance, as well as quality of life. To date, the brain changes that give rise to these impairments are unknown. In this study we will analyse banked tissue using lab techniques such as western blotting and immunohistochemistry to determine the timecourse of expression of neuroimmune markers. The results will facilitate development of targeted therapies for prevention of CICI, in addition to informing clinical assessment protocols and survivorship care plans.

Project 2 - Can differential expression of microRNA’s distinguish valence of emotional state?
Project description: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have recently been proposed as novel biomarkers for animal welfare or in major depressive disorder. MiRNA’s are small non-coding molecules that perform post-transcriptional regulation and control many developmental and cellular processes. Studies in humans and animals have demonstrated different expression patterns of miRNAs as a result of both acute and chronic stress. Furthermore, whilst they are particularly prevalent in brain sites, they can be detected in components of the blood. We propose a novel hypothesis that miRNA assessment may differentiate valence, or direction of emotion ie positive or negative state. This is a preliminary study to determine expression patterns of microRNAs in the blood and amygdala, from banked tissue samples. Techniques employed will include RNA extraction, and miRNA analysis by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), and affymetrix gene microarray technology.

Project 3 - Development and validation of behavioural tests in sheep
Project description: Sheep are widely used as animal models of disease and there is continuing attention into assessment of their welfare state. However, in comparison to other species there has been relatively little development and validation of tests to ascertain emotional states, such as anxiety and generalised affective state. In this project we will design and validate simple, ethologically relevant tests of emotion in sheep with a focus on measures of anxiety and social cognition.

Project 4 - Sex Differences in Chemobrain Incidence? A systematic review +/-meta-analysis
Project description: Chemobrain is a common side effect experienced by cancer patients after administration of chemotherapy. A perusal of the literature on this condition suggests that the condition tends to occur more commonly in females. Whilst a number of factors have been identified which may lead to an increased incidence and severity of the condition in females, it remains unclear whether there actually is a specific gender predisposition. Instead there may be a reporting bias in the literature as a result of disproportions in funding for different cancer types, or access to patient populations. Students on this project will learn about and conduct a systematic review +/- meta-analysis of the literature on this topic following the format of an incidence review. Students will be assisted to develop a search strategy, select studies for inclusion, appraise studies, extract data and synthesise the information narratively. A protocol will be developed and published prior to study start.

Project 5 - Neuroimmune expression in preclinical models of ‘chemobrain’: a systematic review
Project description: Chemobrain is a common side effect experienced by cancer patients after administration of chemotherapy. A body of literature suggests a role for neuroinflammation in the pathogenesis of this condition but the specific pathways remain unclear. In this project we will conduct a scoping systematic review of the literature to determine expression patterns of neuroimmune expression in rodent models of chemobrain. Students will be assisted to develop a search strategy, select studies for inclusion, appraise studies using the SYRCLE risk of bias tool, extract data and synthesis the information narratively. A protocol will be developed and published prior to study start. The results of this review will inform future preclinical research targeting the mechanistic pathways elucidated.
