MRC DiMeN Doctoral Training Partnership - GAGs, CCL5 and CCR5: elucidating a complex partnership for cancer immunotherapy.
Background. Chemokines and their receptors represent an essential network for cell communication in health and disease, and particularly so for cancer and its progression. Read more
Electrifying Cells! Exploring the role of bioelectronic stimulation and bioelectric signalling, with a focus on influencing stem cell behaviour
Electrical stimulation of cells and tissues has been observed to help with healing processes, for example in bone regeneration. Within the NHS, some fracture clinics use electrical stimulation as a to promote healing, often when other methods fail. Read more
Integration of localized electrically deciphered epigenetic profiles for enhanced stem cell therapy
One fully funded Frederick E Hopper full-time PhD scholarship is available in the School of Dentistry for a start in October 2025. Read more

Cell Mechanics and Tumour Growth (Ref: UF-YL-2024)
Please note that this project is not University-funded. You will need to secure external funding to cover your tuition and living expenses. Read more
Elucidating lectin receptor signalling balance in dendritic cell function modulation in health and disease
The immune system is responsible to maintain safe environment for normal cell function. It achieves this by taking defence actions against harmful invaders but tolerance to beneficial substances. Read more
Mechanisms of Cancer Stem Cell Survival, Metastasis Formation and Immune Evasion in Cancer
Recent research suggests that cancer cells within a tumour represent a highly heterogeneous cell population. In particular many tumours contain small percentage of cells that share several characteristics with stem cells. Read more
