Cancer: Understanding the immunosuppressive role of fibroblast and macrophages in Breast cancer

Oncolytic viruses (OVs) preferentially infect and kill cancer cells, and their clinical efficacy has been demonstrated against a number of different cancers. The most clinically advanced OV is a genetically engineered herpes simplex virus (T-VEC) which expresses GMCSF to aid the development of anti-tumour immune responses; T-VEC is approved for the treatment of metastatic melanoma.

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

(MRC DTP CASE) Understanding how tumour associated macrophages control the tumour immune landscape in NF2-Schwannomatosis

Type 2 Neurofibromatosis (NF2), now referred to as NF2-Schwannomatosis (or NF2-SWN), is a rare autosomal dominant tumour pre-disposition syndrome characterised by growth of typically benign tumours throughout the nervous system. Read more

Discovery of cancer antigens that are epigenetically-regulated as biomarkers and vaccine candidates

We are seeking a graduate who is passionate about contributing to cancer research and who has a background in immunology or epigenetics and a degree at least at the upper second-class honours level. Read more

From bench to pre-clinical evaluation: a novel nucleic acid vaccine targeting tumour-associated antigens

Cancer and the long-term toxicities sustained from treatment remain a public health issue for adult and paediatric patients. The spread of tumour cells is believed to account for up to 90% of cancer-related morbidities. Read more

PhD Students (f/m/d) for super-resolution microscopy-based investigations of the glycocalyx

The Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light research covers a wide range of topics, including nonlinear optics, quantum optics, nanophotonics, photonic crystal fibres, optomechanics, quantum technologies, biophysics, and links between physics and medicine. Read more

Revealing Reactivity in Cancer-Associated Heme Proteins: Novel Time-Resolved Structural Approaches

Indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) is a heme-containing enzyme involved in the degradation of tryptophan to kynurenine. Cancer cells upregulate IDO1 to escape normal immune responses and, in many cases, a high expression of IDO1 is connected to poor prognosis. Read more
