Personalising cancer treatment with tumour evolution modelling using AI-based genomics biomarkers and PK/PD

University of Liverpool Institute of Systems, Molecular and Integrative Biology

Tumour heterogeneity is a major problem limiting the efficacy of targeted oncological therapies. Most advanced tumours eventually become resistant to the treatments, ultimately making the patient succumb to metastatic disease. Read more

Modelling the ecology and evolution of microbial communities

The University of Manchester Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health

From the human gut to deep-sea sediments, microbial communities – or microbiomes – colonize virtually every habitat on earth. These microbiomes are central to ecosystem functioning and to host health, and therefore it is essential that we understand how and why they change over time. Read more
