Development of a multi-gene detection model for Chinese Luminal-type early breast cancer and its clinical translational study on the predictive value of breast cancer recurrence risk
Supervisors. Principal supervisor. Professor/Dr Jia Meng (XJTLU). Co-supervisor. Professor/Dr Xinghong Luo (JITRI). Co-supervisor. Read more
Interactions between dietary isothiocyanates and anti-cancer drug sorafenib in breast cancer (BAOY_U23MED204350)
High consumption of cruciferous vegetables can reduce the risk of cancer. Read more
Cancer: Understanding the immunosuppressive role of fibroblast and macrophages in Breast cancer
Oncolytic viruses (OVs) preferentially infect and kill cancer cells, and their clinical efficacy has been demonstrated against a number of different cancers. The most clinically advanced OV is a genetically engineered herpes simplex virus (T-VEC) which expresses GMCSF to aid the development of anti-tumour immune responses; T-VEC is approved for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. Read more
Cancer: Characterization of EGFR signaling activated by the endothelium in the process of breast cancer metastasis to the brain
The Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is important in normal physiology regulating epithelial development and homeostasis. In cancer, deregulation resulting from mutation, amplification or transcriptional upregulation promotes tumorigenesis. Read more
MScR: Role of the Rho GTPase RhoD in breast cancer
Epithelial cancers such as breast cancer become difficult to treat when they invade the surrounding tissues, eventually entering the blood stream and spreading to other parts of the body to form metastases. Read more
Mechanisms of cancer cell invasion
Epithelial cancers such as breast cancer become difficult to treat when they invade the surrounding tissues, eventually entering the blood stream and spreading to other parts of the body to form metastases. Read more
Role of the Rho GTPase RhoD in cancer
Epithelial cancers such as breast cancer become difficult to treat when they invade the surrounding tissues, eventually entering the blood stream and spreading to other parts of the body to form metastases. Read more
Investigating the clinical and molecular significance of the microbiome in breast cancer
Breast Cancer (BC) is the most common cancer in the UK, accounting for 15% of new cancer cases. There is a significant unmet clinical need to understand why some cancers do not respond to treatment and what drives metastasis. Read more
Cancer: Developing cubosome nanocarriers to improve chemotherapy responses in breast cancer
Cytotoxic chemotherapy is a treatment component for around a third of primary and the majority of secondary breast cancer patients. 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
Therapeutic modulation of radioiodine uptake in thyroid and breast cancer
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for research in thyroid or breast cancer led by Professor Chris McCabe at the University of Birmingham (Professor Chris McCabe - Institute of Metabolism and Systems Research - University of Birmingham). Read more

Would you like to learn new skills in mechanical and medical engineering with a focus on multiscale bone biomechanics, 3D printing and advanced computational modelling ? Could you be a future research leader in providing solutions to some of Europe’s most pressing healthcare problems? Do you want to further your career at one of the UK’s leading research intensive universities?. Read more
Cancer: Repurposing drugs as new treatments for breast cancer
Breast cancer (BC) is the most common cancer, with over 1 million new cases diagnosed worldwide each year. For some types of BC, hormonal treatments have been very effective but one particular BC subtype, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), is highly aggressive and lacks a targeted therapy. Read more
Assessing the molecular mechanisms by which Cathepsin V promotes breast cancer growth and metastasis
Targeted therapies such as tamoxifen, fulvestrant and anastrozole have exhibited significant clinical success since being introduced as treatments for Estrogen Receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer patients. Read more
Indentifying the regulators of the Estrogen Receptor in Breast Cancer
Approximately 70% of breast cancer cases are Oestrogen Receptor positive (ER+). In these patients, the ER drives the growth and proliferation of the tumour. Read more
