Identifying how mucinous tumours use glycobiology to resist chemotherapy
Mucinous colorectal cancers are easily identifiable early in a patient’s care due to their extracellular glycan (sugar)-dominated mucus, which accounts for more than 50% of tumour volume. Read more
Developing tailored solutions to under-recruiting randomised controlled trials: a mixed-methods investigation
Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) drive evidence-based medicine, but they can be resource-intensive and challenging to conduct. Read more
Widening participation in economic evaluations alongside randomised controlled trials: developing resource-use questionnaires for underserved populations
When conducting a trial-based economic evaluation to assess the cost-effectiveness of a new treatment or drug, it is necessary to measure both the benefits (such as quality of life) and the costs associated with delivering the intervention[1]. Read more
Defining the molecular mechanisms of leukaemia chemotherapies
Chemotherapies are usually the backbone of cancer treatment for either curative or palliative patient care. Multiple therapies can be used for the same disease, with the choice of drug dependent on parameters such as the patient’s age and fitness. Read more
The effects of research culture on the diversity and career progression for female ethnic minority staff in academia across disciplines: a mixed-methods analysis and thematic framework
Project description. In order to conduct research that is sufficiently reflective of the entire population, research teams needs to be diverse and inclusive to reflect the full range of communities they are researching. Read more
Remote patient monitoring using wearable devices and AI
Artificial intelligence (AI) has permeated various aspects of modern life, significantly influencing the healthcare sector. Fuelled by this momentum, remote patient monitoring facilitated by mobile sensing technology is on the way to changing how patients are monitored and treated. Read more
PROMIS Scale Validation in Clinical Trials of Common Musculoskeletal Injuries (NDORMS-2025/7)
Patient-reported outcomes are included in randomised clinical trials (RCTs) as primary or secondary endpoints to measure the impact of interventions and are increasingly recognised by regulators, clinicians, and patients as valuable tools that ensure comprehensive assessment. Read more
Trial replication and target trial emulation for arthritis and orthopaedic treatments: an analysis of national and international real world data (NDORMS-2025/6)
This DPhil in Clinical Epidemiology and Medical Statistics will include a 3-year project focussing on target trial emulation studies to generate real-world evidence for arthritis and orthopaedic treatments using de-identified, routinely-collected data from primary and secondary care in the UK and across Europe. Read more
Lifelong considerations in managing periodontal disease
Project details. Periodontal disease poses significant challenges to oral health and overall well-being; however, it is not a disease that poses risk of death. Read more
