Cancer Epigenetics project

Broad Project Summary: Cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Epigenetic changes are now recognised as a hallmark feature of cancer, but our understanding of factors that are responsible for tumour spread still remains limited. Read more

Fully funded PhD studentship in mechanisms of cancer heterogeneity and drug sensitivity

Treatment of cancer with drugs that cause DNA damage often leads to development of the drug tolerance. Recently, we uncovered a novel mechanism of such an adaptation that associates with active generation of hundreds of thousand mutations in chromosomes that prevent drug-triggered DNA damage.
