Development and Application of a Generative 3D Cell Morphable Model for Blood-Cell Morphodynamics

This iCASE project addresses a critical bottleneck in blood-cell morphodynamics. high-throughput blood-smear platforms capture large-scale clinical 2D cell images, but the smearing process physically flattens cells onto glass, destroying the 3D nuclear and cellular geometry that encodes mechanics and cell state.

(MCRC Non-Clinical) Personalising Radiotherapy for Lung Cancer Through Mathematical Modelling.

Radiotherapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is still largely one-size-fits-all — dose and fractionation are set by tumour stage and performance status, despite variation in how individual tumours actually behave. Read more

(MCRC Non-Clinical) Unlocking the power of Geographic Information Systems for Breast Cancer Risk and Prevention

At least 30% of breast cancer risk is unexplained by current risk prediction algorithms which incorporate family history, personal history of benign breast disease, polygenic risk scores, breast density, hormonal and reproductive factors, lifestyle and demographic information. Read more

(MCRC Non-Clinical) Development of a UK proton computed tomography system

The advantage of proton beam therapy over conventional X-ray radiotherapy is the increased normal tissue sparing. This advantage, however, is impacted by beam delivery accuracy which, in turn, is impacted by the associated uncertainties. Read more
