Gene regulation in cancer metastsis
A PhD project studying gene regulation in cancer metastasis is available in the laboratory of Dr. Fiona Wardle (https://www.kcl.ac.uk/research/wardle-group) in the Randall Centre for Cell and Molecular Biophysics, King’s College London. Read more
Using a novel human 3D spheroid model to study mechanisms and therapeutics for vascular calcification
Start date: October 2025. Vascular calcification (VC) is a serious and widespread clinical problem manifesting in atherosclerosis, chronic kidney disease (CKD), diabetes and ageing. Read more
Enhancing ear drum repair by tracking endogenous stem cells
Tympanic membrane (ear drum) perforation (TMP) is a highly prevalent clinical problem. TMPs can result from physical trauma, pressure changes and, most commonly, from otitis media (OM). Read more
Adhesion-dependent control of tumour-immune cell interactions in lung cancer
This project will define how adhesion receptors in lung cancer cells contribute to regulation of tumour-immune cell interactions using advanced 3D models. . Read more
Defining direct effects of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors at islets to improve glucose homeostasis
This PhD project will investigate the effects of clinically used SSRIs on improving β-cell function and maintaining normoglycaemia in mice, and identify the molecular mechanisms by which SSRIs act. Read more
Investigate the role of NHSL1 in vesicle trafficking and receptor recycling promoting cancer cell invasion using CRISPR-Cas9, microfluidics, and advanced live cell imaging.
Cancer is a devastating disease. more than one in three people in the UK will develop cancer in their lifetime. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer related deaths. Read more
Investigate the molecular mechanism controlling FEME (Fast Endophilin Mediated Endocytosis) in directed cancer cell migration using CRISPR, biochemistry, and advanced microscopy methods.
Cancer is a devastating disease. more than one in three people in the UK will develop cancer in their lifetime. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer related deaths. Read more
Investigate the switch between mesenchymal and amoeboid cancer cell migration using CRISPR-Cas9, microfluidics, and 3D live cell imaging.
Cancer is a devastating disease. more than one in three people in the UK will develop cancer in their lifetime. Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer related deaths. Read more
Molecular Mechanisms of Cancer Progression
The Wells Invasion and Metastasis Research Group is interested in how cancer cells are able to dissociate from the primary tumour, invade the surrounding tissue and subsequently metastasise to distal sites. Read more
Investigate cytoskeletal networks controlling cancer cell migration at the systems level using CRISPR-Cas9, microfluidics, and advanced live cell imaging.
Cell migration is fundamental for the existence of multicellular animals, including humans, as certain cells migrate throughout the embryo to form specific tissues. Read more
