Investigating the Disruption of Invading Breast Cancer Cells to the Regenerative Capacity of Bone Cells in a Tissue Engineered Tumour Microenvironment
Metastasis in breast cancer reduces five-year survival rates in the UK from 99% to 15%[1]. One of the most common sites for tumour metastasis is bone, affecting approximately 70% of patients with over 24,000 in the UK alone[1]. Read more
(Bicentenary) Post-burn scar grading using AI
Major burns can have lasting effects on quality of life, causing scarring, pain, affecting thermoregulation, outward appearance, and mental health. Read more
(Bicentenary) Integration of multi-modal datasets to understand the adipose tissue response to obesity
Obesity is a disease at crisis levels in many populations. It is associated with increased risk of cancer, hypertension, steatotic liver disease, insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes. Read more
(Bicentenary) A multi-omic approach to understand ineffective regeneration during liver disease
The liver has a remarkable physiological capacity to regenerate. Despite this, deaths from liver disease are increasing dramatically and increasing age remains a major risk factor for cellular dysfunction in the liver. Read more
Improving the regenerative capacity of Junctional Epidermolysis Bullosa skin by re-activating YAP/TAZ signalling.
This is an exciting opportunity for a 4-year DEBRA UK-funded PhD studentship within the Institute of Dentistry of Barts and The London Medical School and Dentistry at Queen Mary University of London (QMUL). Read more
(Bicentenary) ILC interactions with the extracellular matrix in inflamed barrier tissues
Environmental factors such as infection, the microbiota, diet, allergens and pollution act in concert with host genetics to drive the onset and progression of chronic inflammatory diseases of barrier tissues, including Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) and allergic asthma. Read more
(Bicentenary) Multimodal AI methods for spatial omics data to characterise tumour microenvironments
The tumour microenvironment (TME) is a complex and dynamic landscape, consisting of cellular (stromal, tumour, immune cells and other cell types) and non-cellular components (extracellular matrix). Read more
Dissecting disparities in response to immunotherapies in under-represented patients with head and neck cancer by integrative omics and machine learning
We invite applicants for a 4-year iCASE studentship to work in collaboration with our industrial partner Nonacus Ltd. Joint Primary Supervisor. Read more
Investigating regional changes in cardiac electrophysiology in heart failure using panoramic optical mapping
Additional Joint Second Supervisors. Dr Davor Pavlovic / Dr Chris O’Shea, Institute of Cardiovascular Sciences, University of Birmingham. Read more
Functional consequences of genomic tandem repeat expansions in pulmonary fibrosis
Additional Supervisor. Dr Nick Hannan, School of Medicine, University of Nottingham. This important and exciting project explores an underappreciated aspect of genetics that could help us understand and treat Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF), a devastating lung disease with limited treatment options.

Boosting genetic immunity of pea against downy mildew pathogen (ARORA_J25CASE)
Pea (Pisum sativum) is an essential crop for sustainable agriculture, valued for its nitrogen-fixing capabilities and as a key source of plant-based protein. Read more
(VIDA DTC) Cerebral microinfarcts in a mouse model of hypertension
Vascular obstructions can result from cardioembolic diseases, such as atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia. Read more
