Evaluating the function of podoplanin (PDPN)+ cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) in bladder cancer biology

Institute of Cancer Research
PhD Programmes
Bladder cancers which are enriched for cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAF) have poor therapeutic outcomes. We have identified that a CAF population that stains positively for podoplanin (PDPN) is the most common CAF subtype. Read more

Understanding how ARID1A shapes chromatin structure, composition, and function

Institute of Cancer Research
PhD Programmes
ARID1A is a defining subunit of the BAF chromatin remodelling complex, one of the SWI/SNF family of remodellers in human cells. The ARID1A gene is frequently mutated in cancer (Harrod et al., 2020) ARID1A plays a key role in localising BAF to regulatory elements, especially enhancers. Read more

Understanding replication stress at human telomeres

Institute of Cancer Research
PhD Programmes
Human telomeres are composed of repetitive DNA bound by a protein complex called shelterin, forming a nucleoprotein cap that prevents the natural chromosome ends from fusing together in response to DNA repair. Read more
