Development of Solid-State NMR Methods for Application to Pharmaceutics

Most pharmaceutical treatments, even most recently approved ones, are delivered as solid-state tablets. Thus, once candidate molecules have been identified by drug discovery, and before entering clinical trials, the pharmaceutical industry makes substantial investment in understanding the solid-state landscape.

The interaction of steroid hormone receptors with FOXL2 during ovary development

A 2027 Crick PhD project with Robin Lovell-Badge. Project background and description. Functional organ development requires the correct differentiation and spatial organisation of progenitor cells, where these can be anything from self-renewing stem cells through to committed intermediate cell types.

Germ cells in gastruloids

A 2027 Crick PhD project with Naomi Moris. Project background and description. Gametes (sperm and egg) originate from progenitors called ‘germ cells’ that arise early in embryo development, and are crucial for the fertility of the offspring. Read more

Computational modelling of cell morphology in the spatial organisation of cancer

A 2027 Crick PhD project with Josh Bull. Project background and description. The tumour microenvironment is a complex ecosystem, driven not just by the uncontrolled growth of cancerous cells, but also by their interactions with immune cells, vasculature, stroma, and the surrounding tissue architecture.

Improved survival analyses in molecular cancer studies

  Research Group: Statistical Medicine and Molecular Biology
A common challenge in cancer studies concerns the topic of survival analysis; that is, the question of modelling the time until an event happens, where that may mean literal survival or an event such as biochemical recurrence (BCR) or metastasis. Read more
