AI-based Identification of New Drug Targets for Personalised Oncology

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Professor Francesca Ciccarelli, Lead of the Centre for Cancer Genomics and Computational Biology, Bart's Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University of London. Read more

Revealing Reactivity in Cancer-Associated Heme Proteins: Novel Time-Resolved Structural Approaches

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a heme-containing enzyme involved in the degradation of tryptophan to kynurenine. Cancer cells upregulate IDO1 to escape normal immune responses and, in many cases, a high expression of IDO1 is connected to poor prognosis. Read more

Obtaining insights into how a signalling hub protein Ras activates multiple effectors

The RAS family of small GTPases act as signalling hubs regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. They are highly conserved from yeast to humans, highlighting their fundamental biological roles. Read more

Structural-guided PROTAC targeting of BMX to modulate apoptotic sensitivity in disease

What determines at the molecular level whether a cell lives or dies? Regulation of the cellular life–death switch is essential in healthy cells for normal foetal development and for the clearance of damaged cells. Read more

Molecular characterization of Sam68-driven cytoskeletal reorganization

The cytoskeleton is a complex network of various fibres (microtubules, actin, …) that is essential for cells to maintain their shape and internal organization and for their migration. Read more

(MRC DTP CASE) Multiomic evaluation of differential drug response in metastatic breast cancers

Breast cancers are the most common cancers in women. Estrogen Receptor (ER) plays a major role in breast cancer growth. To stop the cancer from growing further, clinically successful ER-targeting therapies like Fulvestrant, etc were developed. Read more

(MRC DTP CASE) Understanding how tumour associated macrophages control the tumour immune landscape in NF2-Schwannomatosis

Type 2 Neurofibromatosis (NF2), now referred to as NF2-Schwannomatosis (or NF2-SWN), is a rare autosomal dominant tumour pre-disposition syndrome characterised by growth of typically benign tumours throughout the nervous system. Read more
