  Cancer and ageing: studying leukaemia & blood stem cell exhaustion in short-lived African killifish
University College London UCL Cancer Institute
  Dr E Payne, Prof J Bahler, Dr G Stefani
Application Deadline: 14 December 2018
Cancer is overwhelmingly a disease of the elderly, and age is its largest risk factor. Clonal, age-associated populations of haematopoietic cells have been found in large numbers of haematopoietically normal humans.

  Understanding the role of the Guanosine Trimethylase TGS1 in Acute myeloid leukaemia
University of Cambridge Department of Pathology
  Dr I Barbieri
Application Deadline: 3 January 2019
RNA methylation is a reversible post-translational modification to RNA that epigenetically numerous biological processes. The biological and molecular functions of RNA methylation are generally very poorly understood, both in normal and pathological biological processes.

  Investigating the modulation of cellular responses as a consequence of long term Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase (PARP) inhibition therapy
Kingston University Faculty of Science, Engineering and Computing
  Dr T Gaymes
Applications accepted all year round
Approximately 30 years ago, Poly ADP Ribose Polymerase (PARP) activity was shown to play a critical role in the processes of DNA repair in nucleated cells.
