Biological Sciences (cancer) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students

We have 137 Biological Sciences (cancer) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students

Experimental and computational Cancer PhD: Overcoming osteosarcoma chemoresistance by characterizing and targeting cellular quiescence

Cancer is the leading cause of death in children and the second in young adults in England and Wales. Sarcomas, tumours that originate from connective tissues (bone, muscle, fat), account for around 15% of childhood cancers. Read more

Identifying metabolic drivers of cancer development

Rationale. Growing evidence suggests that cell extrinsic factors are key in modulating tumor progression. Metabolites are small molecules that act as sources of fuel and building blocks essential for cells and tissues when present at normal levels. Read more

AI-based Identification of New Drug Targets for Personalised Oncology

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Professor Francesca Ciccarelli, Lead of the Centre for Cancer Genomics and Computational Biology, Bart's Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University of London. Read more

Combining CRISPR-screens and AI to Identify Novel Therapeutic Strategies to Target Cancer-Stroma Interactions

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Dr Angus Cameron, Reader in Cell Signalling and Tumour Cell Biology, Barts Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University London, Dr Otto Morris, Senior Biological Data Scientist at Exscientia, and Professor Pedro Cutillas, Professor of Cell Signalling and Proteomics, QMUL, Barts Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University London. Read more

Estimating the global cancer burden due to low levels of physical activity

Rationale. Around 40% of all cancers are thought to be avoidable by modification of lifestyle factors. Obesity has been found to be a risk factor for several cancers and was estimated to have caused around 3.6% of all new cancers which occurred in 2012. Read more
