Small molecule cancer drug discovery targeting resistant disease.

Despite continuous advances in targeted cancer therapy in recent years, there remains a major challenge to combat drug resistance and poor levels of efficacy in areas of unmet medical need, such as advanced colorectal and breast cancer. Read more

The role of NFIA fusion genes in erythroid leukaemia

It is clear that the process of haematopoietic (blood) development is ultimately coordinated by transcription factors, a view supported by the prevalence of transcription factor abnormalities found in leukaemia. Read more

Development of a Wireless Sensor for Measuring Water Storage in Glaciers

PROJECT OVERVIEW. An exciting opportunity to develop a new instrument to study water storage in glaciers. You should have either a background in engineering or environmental science, but with a keen enthusiasm to design, build and field-test an instrument that will need to work in a harsh environment. Read more

Studying Glacier Hydrology using new Wireless Instruments

PROJECT BACKGROUND. Are you keen to pursue a research career in glaciology? We have a rare opportunity for a fully-funded studentship with flexibility to define your own research project. Read more

Eliminating Harmful Cells to Maintain Homeostatis and Prevent Tumorigenesis

Hamaratoglu Lab studies cell-cell signalling in development, homeostasis and tumourigenesis. We take advantage of outstanding genetic tools in Drosophila, and use larval imaginal discs as model epithelial organs. Read more
