The extracellular matrix in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC): how the microenvironment modulates anti-tumour immunity
Supervisor. Luca Urbani. The interaction of tumour microenvironment (TME) with cancer cells is closely involved with tumour development, progression and drug resistance. Read more
Developing machine learning algorithms for early detection of hepatocellular carcinoma
Primary liver cancer is the third leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide. The most common type of liver cancer is hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), which develops in the background of liver diseases, such as cirrhosis. Read more
Identification and functional importance of RNA and lipid biomarkers in colorectal cancer metastases to liver
Applications are invited for a three-year Postgraduate studentship, supported by the College of Health and Life Sciences, at Aston University. Read more
Personalised surveillance schedules for detecting hepatocellular carcinoma
Early diagnosis of cancer allows early intervention which is expected to improve outcomes for patients. Surveillance is a tool that can aid early detection through regular assessment of patients. Read more
Liver immunology, regeneration and viral infection projects (SARS-CoV-2, hepatitis viruses)
We are seeking talented, motivated students with a passion for immunology research to join the Viral and Liver Immunology group led by Dr Zania Stamataki. Read more
Exploration of the multi-causality and multi-morbidity in patients with lifestyle related liver disease using the UK Biobank
Background. Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common cause of chronic liver disease in the UK due to the obesity and type 2 diabetes epidemics. Read more
Metabolic reprogramming in cancer: starving tumors of essential nutrients to promote cell death
All the cells in our bodies are programmed to die. As they get older, our cells accumulate toxic molecules that make them sick. In response, they eventually break down and die, clearing the way for new, healthy cells to grow. Read more
Cancer: Inhibiting cell metabolism to enhance tumour cell death
All the cells in our bodies are programmed to die. As they get older, our cells accumulate toxic molecules that make them sick. In response, they eventually break down and die, clearing the way for new, healthy cells to grow. Read more
Development of deep learning methods and software to infer pathway enrichment from histology images - application to liver fibrosis
Histopathological images are routinely used to characterize complex phenotypes. For example, pathologists regularly study stained images of tissue biopsies for cancer diagnosis as cancer is known to change the morphological features of cells including cell shape and size [1]. Read more
Immunotherapy: Killing Cancer using Dead Virus
It is now accepted that our immune systems can hold the key to treating otherwise incurable cancers. So-called “immunotherapy” is an increasingly common method of treating tumours, leading to impressive increases in patient responses. . Read more
Translational Medicine: Understanding the mechanism(s) of resistance to EPA to personalise therapy and improve outcome
Advanced colorectal cancer (CRC) is the UK’s second most lethal cancer, with limited treatment options for unresectable metastatic tumours. Read more
A platform to investigate multi-tissue crosstalk mediated by exercise induced soluble factors released from human skeletal muscle
The benefits of exercise are well documented, whereby people regularly undertaking some form of physical activity score highly in measures of fitness, health and mental wellbeing. Read more
How can we reduce child malnutrition and obesity in the face of food insecurity and poverty?
Children in the UK face considerable challenges to growing up healthy and happy. Read more
