Doctor of Philosophy (PhD): Using surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy to improve the delivery of radiotherapy in 3D tumour models
Research Group:
CDT in Applied Photonics
Radiotherapy is the most commonly used, and most effective, non-surgical treatment for cancer. However, not all tumors are equally susceptible to radiotherapy e.g. Read more
FLASH VHEE Radiotherapy Machine System Design
FLASH-RT entails delivering a high dose over a sub-second timescale and there have been experiments on animals which indicate cancerous regions suffer lethal… Read more
4-year PhD Studentship: Development of a cheap sensitive blood test for early detection of brain metastasis using fluorescent carbon dots and nanophotonics
Development of a cheap sensitive blood test for early detection of brain metastasis using fluorescent carbon dots and nanophotonics. Read more
Radiobiology with laser-driven ions at ultra-high dose rate
Cancer ranks as a leading cause of death worldwide, motivating research in developing more advanced and effective forms of therapy. Read more
Computation modelling of biological response to radiation at tissue level for Proton Therapy
Proton Beam Therapy (PBT) is a radically new type of radiotherapy that has the potential to improve the precision and targeting of radiotherapy leading to fewer side effects, faster recovery and better outcomes for patients. Read more
RNA Interference for Glioblastoma therapy using lipid nanoparticles
University of Central Lancashire Funded Doctoral Training Centre for Industry Collaboration. Inaugural PhD Studentships. The successful applicant will receive an annual stipend payment of £16062 and tuition fees will be covered. Read more
PhD student in Diamond Semiconductor Physics
Uppsala University is a comprehensive research-intensive university with a strong international standing. Our ultimate goal is to conduct education and research of the highest quality and relevance to make a long-term difference in society. Read more
Targeting Integrin Linked kinase (ILK) in Glioblastoma
Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and lethal brain tumour in adults, and current treatment options are not very effective. There is an urgent need to find new targets for therapeutic intervention. Read more
Last chance to apply
(EPSRC DTP) Interactions and therapeutic potential of graphene materials with brain cancer organoids
Glioblastoma (GM) is the most common and most aggressive brain tumour, as less than 5% of the patients survive more than 5 years. Read more
Developing nanoparticles to target neuroendocrine tumour for overcoming resistance to cancer treatment
Many cancer patients having undergone local and systemic treatment eventually develop and die from the progression of distant metastasis associated with the relapse in primary tumour growth. Read more
Estimating cancer treatment effects in patient audit data
Cancer treatment effects on patient survival can be estimated in population-based observational cancer audit datasets. For certain patient groups, these estimates could be their only treatment evidence-base. Read more
Discovery of novel cancer immunotherapeutic agents
Although cancer therapeutics, mainly chemotherapy and radiotherapy, have been extremely useful in the treatment of cancer, this disease is still associated with high mortality. Read more
3D printed personalised long-acting implants for effective cancer treatment
According to WHO, cancer is the second leading cause of death worldwide, with nearly 1 in 6 deaths been due to cancer. The principal modes of cancer management are surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and pharmaceutical agents. Read more
Range verification in proton beam therapy through prompt gamma-ray imaging
The beauty of proton therapy over x-ray therapy is that the majority of protons stop within the patient. The problem lies in the fact that we cannot tell, with a great degree of accuracy, exactly where they stop !. Read more
Applying radiomics to improve outcomes in cervix cancer
Cervix cancer is a growing problem in worldwide. Thanks for continuous improvements in cancer treatments, such as radiotherapy, many women survive their disease but they can also experience side effects from their treatments. Read more
