Characterization of the molecular mechanisms of breast cancer metastasis to bone: from basic research to biomarkers
About the Project. Breast cancer is responsible for over 300,000 cancer diagnoses within the UK per annum, and it is estimated that one in 7 women will develop breast cancer. Read more
Self Funded PhD project: Biological Evaluation of Ruthenium (II) complexes Targeted against Breast Cancers (BRUT BC)
MCF-7 cells are primary tumour invasive breast ductal carcinoma which have both oestrogen and progesterone receptors. Tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF alpha) inhibits the growth of MCF-7 breast cancer cells. Read more
Causal association between physical activity and breast cancer subtype; a Mendelian randomization study (MSc Research)
Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide accounting for approximately 25 percent of all new cases of cancer in women. Read more
Development of bioengineered 3D tumour models for preclinical breast cancer research
Background. 3D organoid model technologies have led to the development of innovative tools for precision medicine in cancer treatment. Read more
Omics approaches to reveal novel players regulating cell signalling in breast cancer
There is an unmet need for novel molecular targeted therapies to improve breast cancer patient survival outcomes. Available therapies for breast cancer patients are based on surgery, radiation, or targeted therapies mostly directed against signalling players, like kinases. Read more
Epi-Genomic and Epi-Transcriptomic Aberrations in Breast Cancer Brain Metastasis
A SFI funded PhD position is available within the Department of Surgery, Royal College of Surgeons, Dublin, Ireland for a highly motivated person with an upper second or first class honours degree or Masters degree in clinical biology or a related subject. Read more
The Role of Molecular Regulators in Breast Cancer development using 3D models
Breast cancer represents a major health burden, with it being the second leading cause of cancer related death in women worldwide. Read more
Development of risk prediction model to raise awareness and aid Breast Cancer Screening In Thailand and SE Asia.
Asia , where epithelial cancers are an emerging and important disease but wide scale population based screening programs cannot yet be justified fully, approaches to rationing entry into screening investigation programs needs to be implemented selectively. Read more
FGFR signalling in breast cancer
Growth factors are used during development to convey messages that tell cells to divide, survive, migrate and adopt a particular fate. Read more
Breast Cancer Omics and Modelling
Background and goals. Breast cancer is the major cause of death among women and 90% of deaths are caused by incurable metastasis. Read more
Understanding tumour relapse in estrogen receptor positive breast cancer via machine learning
PhD opportunity in the CDT . AI for Healthcare. , under the supervision of Dr Barbara Bravi (Department of Mathematics) and Prof Luca Magnani (Surgery and Cancer). Read more
Breast cancer treatment and the mechanical properties of fibroblasts
In breast cancer, the amount of extracellular stroma is an indicator of poor prognosis. Read more
Polyphenol exposure and cardiometabolic outcomes among breast cancer survivors – a prospective biomarker study
Polyphenol intake protects against cardiovascular diseases in the general population, while not much is known about its health effects among cancer survivors. Read more
Assessing the reliability of AI for predicting the risk of breast cancer
Improving early diagnosis of major diseases such as cancer and dementia is a top national healthcare priority. Read more
Developing novel therapeutic strategies to better treat Triple Negative Breast Cancer
One in two people will develop cancer in their lifetime and it is a leading cause of death. While significant progress has been made in the treatment of some cancers, there still remain some forms of the disease with limited treatment options and poor outcome. Read more
