Genomics of malignant pleural mesothelioma
Malignant pleural mesothelioma is a rare, incurable cancer that carries a dismal prognosis. Its incidence is increasing globally despite its primary cause, asbestos exposure, having been known for over 50 years. Read more
Agricultural genomics, chromosomes, genome and repetitive sequence evolution in crops, farm animals, models and wild relatives
In this project, you will investigate the large-scale organization of an agricultural species and its wild relatives. We will use genomic data from DNA sequencing, including methylation where appropriate. Read more
Circadian rhythm effects on radiotherapy for prostate and other cancers
Research Group:
Human & Medical Genetics
Radiotherapy is used to treat more than 50% of cancer patients, but up to a quarter of patients suffer side effects that can affect their quality of life in the long-term. Read more
Evaluating the epidemiology, genetic basis and molecular evolution of antibiotic resistance in the African nation of Cabo Verde
Antibiotic resistance (AbR) in bacteria has become a global health emergency. Just in 2019 alone, AbR has caused 1.27 million deaths and was associated indirectly with other 4.95 million deaths1. Read more
Exploiting raptor genome sequences to combat wildlife crime
Birds of prey have suffered persecution for centuries through trapping, shooting, poisoning and theft from the wild to meet the demand from egg collectors and falconers; they were also amongst the earliest beneficiaries of DNA testing in wildlife forensics. Read more
Functional effects of variable number tandem repeat expansions in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis
Research Group:
Human & Medical Genetics
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic, progressive lung disease characterized by the formation of scar tissue in the lungs. Read more
Transcriptional kinases in cancer and developmental disorders
Cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) are protein kinases performing essential functions in regulation of cell cycle and transcription. Read more
