Pharmacology of ion channels in human genetic disorders
The School of Biomedical Sciences invites applications from prospective postgraduate researchers who wish to commence study for a PhD in the academic year 2024/25. Read more
Polysialyltransferases as a target in metastatic cancer
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Polysialic acid plays an essential role in neuronal development, but by adulthood is absent from the human body. Its biosynthesis is regulated by two polysialyltransferases. Read more
Design, synthesis and evaluation of protease-activated anti-cancer prodrugs
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of endoproteases that are overexpressed in tumours and play crucial roles in many tumourigenic processes, not least tumour invasion and angiogenesis. Read more
Design, synthesis and evaluation of novel polysialyltransferase inhibitors as anti- metastatic agents
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Polysialic acid plays an essential role in neuronal development, but by adulthood is absent from the human body. Its biosynthesis is regulated by two polysialyltransferases (polySTs). Read more
Therapeutic resolution of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) by natural products
Research Group:
Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a devastating cardiovascular disorder which, if left untreated, leads to heart failure and death. Read more
Therapeutic resolution of Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) by natural products
Research Group:
Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics
Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a type of blood cancer where the patients do not have enough healthy blood cells. Read more
Pharmacokinetics Guided Natural Products Exploration for Drug Discovery, Development, Delivery and Therapy
Research Group:
Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Natural products have emerged as a key standard in novel and safe delivery of anticancer bioactive compounds. Apart from their ease of administration and delivery, natural/phytochemicals still face several hurdles, due to their physiochemical and pharmacokinetic properties. Read more
ERK5 MAPK signalling in Alzheimer’s disease
Research Group:
Pharmacology and Experimental Therapeutics
Neurodegenerative diseases have devastating effects on individuals’ lives and our society, with no effective treatments available. Read more
Development of novel drug combinations for improved treatment of cancers of unmet need
Research Group:
Centre for Skin Sciences
The cancer incidence in UK has risen by 39% over the last decade and advanced disease (metastasis) has poor overall five-year survival rate (5%). Read more
Investigation of novel PARP7-targeting agents for the treatment of cancer
PARP7, an ADP-ribosyltransferase, modulates protein function by adding an ADP-ribose moiety to target proteins. It is involved in many physiological and pathophysiological processes such as neural development, maintenance of stem cells, immunity, xenobiotic metabolism, immunity and cancers. Read more
Determination of therapeutic potential of different formulations of curcumin as an effective treatment option for pulmonary hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension (PAH) is debilitating condition characterized by thick and stiff blood vessels that are unable to expand resulting in an increased pressure in the blood vessels supplying the lungs. Read more
Development and characterisation of cortical organoid model for drug discovery to treat cognitive impairment in schizophrenia
Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder which severely impairs the individual’s ability to function in society. The most recognised symptoms are delusions and hallucinations, but patients also suffer from memory and attention problems. Read more
Investigating molecular determinants of cellular fate driven by air pollutants
Air pollution is a critical global issue with severe consequences for the environment, economy, and human health. 99% of the world’s population lives in areas where air pollution exceeds WHO guidelines, leading to accelerated ageing, increased mortality, and decreased health span [1,2,3]. . Read more
Integrated computational and biochemical investigation of EGFR-mediated cell signaling
This PhD project is focused on understanding the mechanisms of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) signaling and its role in cellular processes such as proliferation, differentiation, and survival. Read more
MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership: The devil is in the details: exploiting biased receptor signalling to instruct development of precision oncology drugs
Two cancer types that affect opposite ends of the age spectrum, pediatric medulloblastoma and basal cell carcinoma of the skin, are caused by mutations that cause hyperactivation of the Hedgehog signalling pathway. Read more
