Identifying mechanisms of cell extrusions during tissue development
Tissues are shaped by complex cellular processes including cell divisions, extrusions, movements, shape changes and differentiation. Read more
Understanding apoptotic heterogeneity in cell populations
Apoptosis is a form of programmed cell death that occurs in response to stress such as genomic damage. The decision to initiate apoptosis is taken at the outer mitochondrial membrane (OMM) by members of the Bcl-2 family of proteins. Read more
Bioengineering bone models for translational applications
Cell behaviour is regulated by three-dimensional (3D) cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions with its microenvironment. Read more
Cutting off the fuel supply to calcium pumps in pancreatic cancer: a novel therapeutic strategy
Background and Rationale. Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) has the poorest survival and limited treatment options. Therefore, the search for novel therapeutic targets and drugs designed to selectively kill PDAC cells must remain a central research strategy. Read more
Cancer biology: identification of new treatment options for EML4-ALK driven lung cancer through understanding mechanisms of cell division and migration.
Lung cancer is the largest cause of cancer-related deaths in the UK and worldwide. While little progress has been made in long-term survival rates, we now have a good understanding of the genetic drivers raising the prospect of earlier diagnosis and more effective treatments. Read more

Systems approach to dissecting the processes underlying skeletal muscle fibre formation
This project is available through the MIBTP programme. The successful applicant will join the MIBTP cohort and will take part in all of the training offered by the programme. For further details. Read more
The role of extracellular vesicles in lung epithelial cell communication in health and disease
It is estimated that more than 1 bn people suffer from acute and chronic lung problems resulting in millions of deaths every year. Read more
Single Cell Biology of Hematopoietic Stem- and Progenitor Cells in Blood Cancer and Ageing
The focus of the Nerlov laboratory is combining single cell biology (single cell RNAseq, ATACseq and functional analysis) with advanced mouse genetics to study hematopoietic stem– and progenitor cells in normal development and during ageing. Read more
Single Cell Biology of Hematopoietic Stem- and Progenitor Cells in Blood Cancer and Ageing
The focus of the Nerlov laboratory is combining single cell biology (single cell RNAseq, ATACseq and functional analysis) with advanced mouse genetics to study hematopoietic stem– and progenitor cells in normal development and during ageing. Read more
Dynamic cell fate decisions: linking mechanical signals and protein expression dynamics in the developing eye to understand human developmental disorders
Inherited developmental disorders account for much of childhood visual impairment. Development of the eye requires cell fate decisions that balance stem cell proliferation and differentiation. Read more
Treating Cancer with CAR-T Therapy and Single Cell Transcriptomics
Oxford Brookes University. Faculty of Health and Life Sciences. Department of Biological and Medical Sciences, with Coding Bio Ltd. Read more
Cell/extracellular matrix interaction during cell cycle progression: a novel role in controlling nucleotide metabolism?
The deregulation of cell cycle progression is a common feature of cancer formation and progression. Cell/extracellular matrix (ECM) interaction is widely known to support the progression of the cells through the cell cycle. Read more
MSc by Research: Mechanisms controlling cell ingression through the primitive streak during gastrulation in chick embryos
We investigate the how the key cell behaviours that mediate gastrulation in the early chick embryo. The chick embryo is a model for amniote development including humans. Read more
Normal and leukaemic stem/progenitor cell biology and immune responses to blood cancer cells.
Blood cell differentiation is one of the best characterised models to study how normal tissue-specific stem cells give rise to diverse cell types. Read more
