MSc by Research: Targeting ‘Undruggable’ Oncoproteins via Induced Proximity

Many well-established cancer drivers, such as K-Ras and β-catenin, have long been considered ‘undruggable’, as traditional drug development approaches have failed to effectively inhibit their activity. Read more

MSc by Research: Why are inhibitors of the protein kinase IRAK4 failing in Clinical Trials?

Hyperactivation of the Toll-Like Receptor (TLR) signalling pathway is a major cause of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, suggesting that specific inhibitors of this pathway may have therapeutic potential for the treatment of diseases such as asthma, arthritis, colitis, lupus, psoriasis, and sepsis.

MSc by Research: Systems-level approaches to understanding mechanisms of cellular senescence and aging

Age-associated physiological decline is characterized by loss of resilience towards stress and injury. Understanding mechanisms of resilience is a global challenge due to the demographic shift towards aging populations. Cellular senescence is a clinically important phenotype that is both pro-aging and tumor suppressive.

MSc by Research: Regulation of Kinetochore function by PLK1

Accurate partition of the duplicated genome during cell division is crucial for cellular viability and organismal development. Chromosome mis-segregation is a major source of aneuploidy and it is a hallmark of cancer, while in oocytes represents the major source of miscarriages and genetic disease. Read more
