Cancer biology: identification of new treatment options for EML4-ALK driven lung cancer through understanding mechanisms of cell division and migration.

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

Lung cancer is the largest cause of cancer-related deaths in the UK and worldwide. While little progress has been made in long-term survival rates, we now have a good understanding of the genetic drivers raising the prospect of earlier diagnosis and more effective treatments. Read more

Structural and functional analysis of the protein complexes which regulate cell fate decisions to identify novel cancer therapies

University of Leicester Molecular and Cell Biology

Whether a cell dies or not has profound consequences on health and disease. In healthy tissue, cells that acquire high levels of genetic damage are safely removed via a process of programmed cell death. Read more

Biological pathways supporting the formation and function of chromatin (Scholarship)

University of Liverpool Institute of Systems, Molecular and Integrative Biology

Every cell in our body contains the same DNA yet each cell expresses a different set of genes. These changes in gene expression are heavily influenced by histone proteins, their role in packaging DNA into chromatin and the “epigenetic” information they carry. Read more
