(MRC DTP) Investigations into proton radiation in chromosomal instability- and telomere spectrum disorders
Chromosomal instability- and telomere spectrum disorders (CITSDs), such as Bloom syndrome (BS), Fanconi anaemia (FA), Nijmegen Breakage syndrome (NBS) or Dyskeratosis Congenita (DKC) are inherited conditions with variable congenital and developmental abnormalities and impaired ability to maintain chromosomal integrity.

(MRC DTP) Disease Mechanisms of Radiation-Induced Alopecia by Proton Beam and X-Ray Therapy and Prevention through Scalp Cooling
Radiation-induced alopecia (RIA) is a distressing and potentially permanent hair loss disorder resulting from targeted radiotherapy used in the treatment of central nervous system tumours. Read more
Structural biology: A gas channel in vitamin B6 biosynthetic enzymes
Study of gas channels in proteins. You will study gas channeling and structural dynamics in bacterial (tuberculosis), malarial, and plant enzymes involved in Vitamin B6 biosynthesis. Read more
Super-optical resolution imaging using a phonon probe microscope - (ENG 1758)
This exciting opportunity is based within the Optics and Photonics Research Group at the Faculty of Engineering (FoE), University of Nottingham which conducts cutting-edge research into the development of imaging technology for biomedical applications. Read more
(MRC DTP) Combining Randomised Controlled Trials and Real-World Evidence to Optimise the Therapeutic Ratio in Radiotherapy
Radiotherapy (using radiation to destroy a tumour) is an important and effective treatment for cancer. Treatments are planned on medical images to precisely shape the regions of high radiation dose to the tumours of each patient. Read more
Investigating the radiobiology of protons and BNCT in head and neck tumour treatment
Background. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is the 6th most common cancer worldwide with an annual incidence of ~800,000 cases/year. Read more
ACCE DTP Studentship - Nature’s laboratories: allometric constraint and the evolution of island vertebrates
About the Project. The ACCE DTP is committed to recruiting extraordinary future scientists regardless of age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, faith or religious belief, pregnancy or maternity, parental or caring responsibilities or career pathway to date. Read more
Designing and evaluating novel nanotherapeutics to enhance the effectiveness of radiotherapy in the treatment of solid cancers.
One in two cancer patients will receive radiotherapy as part of their treatment. For patients with a localised cancer diagnosis effective radiotherapy represents the best chance of a curative outcome, however, is not without risk. Read more
(MRC DTP) Seasonal sunlight exposure and vitamin D status in Black African/Afro-Caribbean adults in the UK
Our main source of vitamin D is through skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in sunlight. Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones and is associated with reduced incidence of several cancers and immune-mediated disorders. Read more
(MRC DTP) The impact of hearing impairment on neuropsychological functioning and quality of life following treatment for paediatric brain tumours
This is a unique opportunity for a candidate with a background in psychology to work on the important problem of quality of life after childhood cancer. Read more
Sunlight exposure and cutaneous production of vitamin D in Black African/Afro-Caribbean adults
Our main source of vitamin D is through skin exposure to ultraviolet radiation (UVR) in sunlight. Vitamin D is essential for healthy bones and is associated with reduced incidence of several cancers and immune-mediated disorders. Read more
Design and synthesis of transition-state analogue inhibitors of 2’-deoxynucleoside 5’-phosphate N-glycosidase 1 (DNPH1)
History and purpose. Cancer is the leading cause of death in New Zealand and worldwide, associated with one in three deaths. Despite the emergence of immunotherapies, cancer patients are largely treated using conventional cancer therapies such as surgery, radiation, and chemotherapies. Read more
Investigating the role of RNA dependent DNA repair in childhood cancer
Damage to our genetic material DNA is responsible for a wide range of human diseases including neurodegenerative diseases, haematological diseases, immune deficiencies, early ageing and cancers. Read more
Coherent Femtosecond Soft X-ray Microscopy
Project title: Coherent femtosecond soft X-ray microscopy . Supervisory Team: Dr Bill Brocklesby, Prof Jeremy Frey, Dr Peter Horak. Read more
(MRC DTP) Biomarkers of Response and Toxicity: Advancing Cervical Cancer Treatment with a Novel Apoptosis-Promoting Drug and Chemoradiotherapy
Cervical cancer is the fourth most common cancer in women, causing 342,000 deaths globally in 2020. Read more
