The genetic map of human molecular phenotypes

University of Bristol Bristol Medical School

Rationale. Genome wide associations studies (GWASs) have discovered many genetic associations with a large range of human traits, but the functional consequences of GWAS signals often remain elusive, as most GWAS signals reside in non-coding genomic regions. Read more

Estimating the global cancer burden due to low levels of physical activity

University of Bristol Bristol Medical School

Rationale. Around 40% of all cancers are thought to be avoidable by modification of lifestyle factors. Obesity has been found to be a risk factor for several cancers and was estimated to have caused around 3.6% of all new cancers which occurred in 2012. Read more

Prospectively mapping the development of liver disease amongst young adults. Who is developing it early and why?

University of Bristol Bristol Medical School

Rationale. Historically, cirrhosis (irreversible liver scarring), often due to alcohol-related liver disease (ARLD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), presents in the 5th and 6th decade. Read more

The genetics of human scarring – cross-cutting approaches to the understanding of human wound repair.

University of Bristol Bristol Medical School

Rationale. Repair of adult tissues involves a complex interplay of several key cell lineages and inevitably leads to formation of a fibrotic collagenous scar. Read more

Identifying DNA methylation signatures of prostate cancer progression and mortality among patients with clinically confirmed, localised disease at baseline in a large prospective clinical trial

University of Bristol Bristol Medical School

Rationale. Prostate Cancer (PCa) is a leading cause of male mortality, with 336,000 deaths worldwide each year (1). Although most PCa cases are indolent, slow-growing, and tend not to progress, a subset of PCa cases are more aggressive and will progress to metastases, treatment resistance and death. Read more

University of Bristol Bristol Medical School

Rationale. Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are the most prevalent craniofacial congenital disabilities globally, occurring at a frequency of 1 out of 700 newborns. Read more
