  PhD In Population Medicine - Engaging high-risk disadvantaged populations in shared decision making about low-dose computed tomography lung cancer screening
Cardiff University Cardiff School of Medicine
  Dr N Joseph-Williams, Dr KE Brain
Application Deadline: 27 February 2019
Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) lung cancer screening has become the standard of care for high-risk groups in the US, and the case for implementation of stratified screening is building in the UK.

  Carbonic anhydrases as a molecular target to destroy the therapy resistant cancer stem cells in small cell lung cancer (RDF19/HLS/AS/GIELING)
Northumbria University Faculty of Health and Life Sciences
  Dr R Gieling
Application Deadline: 25 January 2019
Cancer treatment is often compromised by populations of cells which are resistant to the therapy. These cells possess stemness properties and are therefore often regarded to be the cancer stem cells (CSCs).

  Molecular mechanisms underpinning EML4 driven microtubule stabilization and cell migration
University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology
  Dr A M Fry, Prof K Brown
Application Deadline: 1 January 2019
EML4 is a poorly characterised microtubule-associated protein [1]. The purpose of this cell biology-focused PhD project is to explore the molecular mechanisms through which EML4 regulates microtubule dynamics and cell migration.
