Interdisciplinary Doctoral Training Hub in Precision Oncology at Cardiff University
These 3.5-year studentships provide funding for fees and stipend at the rate set by the UK Research Councils, as well as other research training and support costs, and are available to UK, EU and International students. Read more
University of Birmingham Clinical PhD Fellowship in paediatric oncology
The appointee will be a PhD student in the area of paediatric oncology and be registered on ‘The Azaylia Foundation PhD Scholarship Programme’. Read more
Artificial Intelligence with Human In The Loop for Automated Medical Image Contouring in Precision Oncology
Positron Emission Tomography (PET) yields quantitative images of regional in-vivo biology and biochemistry in the form of radioactive uptake, whilst Computed Tomography (CT) provides detailed anatomical images of anatomy. Read more
Oncology: Evaluating Photodynamic Therapy in colorectal cancer using patient-derived organoids
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the 3rd most common cancer worldwide. Surgery is first line treatment and often in adjunct with chemotherapy. Read more
Contribution to Estimation and Control Designs for Constrained Impulsive Nonlinear Systems Applied to Tumour Growth Process
Supervisory Team. Dr. Zehor Belkhatir, Prof. Matthew Turner. Project description. Impulsive control systems (ICS) have received great attention in the last decade in a wide range of applications, especially biomedical applications for which cancer treatment is a particular example. Read more
PhD in Systems Medicine
The PhD Program aims to train young and motivated researchers in the wide field of modern Biomedicine, with curriculum in. Molecular Oncology Computational Biology. Read more
Utilising Long Read Sequencing Technology for Improved Cancer Diagnosis
Genetic diagnostics currently forms a key part of the care pathway for cancer patients, with results being used to plan patient care and treatment. Read more
Advanced 3D models for Cancer Research
Radiotherapy and many chemotherapies kill cells by damaging DNA. The efficiency of these DNA damaging agents differs between tumour types and individual patients. Read more
Developing new treatment combinations to target dormant cancer cells in myeloma
Multiple myeloma is the second most common blood cancer and remains essentially incurable. Chemotherapy is effective at reducing tumour and extends survival, but it never fully eradicates disease, so patients face inevitable relapse. Read more
Can digital pathology, radiomics and genomics data predict patient outcomes in solid cancers?
Solid tumour trial datasets are increasing in size and complexity. During their treatment journey and trials participation, patients with an advanced solid cancer will have various scans (CT, MRI, PET) repeated at intervals to assess tumour response (using RECIST guidelines). Read more
Cancer Patients Digital Twins to Investigating disease fragmentation and its impact on drug response in AML trials
Not all patients respond equally to the same treatments. This project aims to explore if there are clues in a patient’s genome that can predict how they will respond to different treatments and are there common genomic signatures that will influence response to chemotherapy. Read more
Effect of androgens on preantral follicle development
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition that affects >5% of women of reproductive age and is the most common cause of menstrual dysfunction and is associated with metabolic abnormalities and increased risk to long-term health. Read more
Deconvoluting the spatial multi-omic landscape of high-grade glioma to target post-surgical residual disease
Background. High-grade gliomas are the most common cancers arising within the brain and contribute to ~190,000 brain tumour related deaths/year globally. Read more
Unravelling neurodevelopmental disease mechanisms of developmental delay: Additional sex combs as a model for ASXL-related disorders in the fly
Drosophila melanogaster is a fruit fly species that has been used in research for many years and are a successful model due to their superlative genetics, vast array of tools, a simple genome that is easy to alter, and the fact that 75% of human disease genes have a recognisable orthologue within flies.

Characterization of the morphological and nanomechanical properties of cortical bone
Musculoskeletal diseases have a huge impact in our ageing society, affecting dramatically the disability of patients suffering from them. Read more
