We have 71 Cancer Biology PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships for UK Students in the UK

The clinical and therapeutic impact of disialoganglioside GD2 and its synthases on breast cancer

Disialoganglioside GD2 is a plasma membrane member of the large glycosphingolipid family which involves a hydrophobic ceramide bound to a hydrophilic sialic acid-containing glycan chain. Read more

Investigating intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms driving plasticity in colorectal cancer metastasis

This CRUK-funded project will commence in September 2024 and has funding for 4 years. The successful candidate will be based at Barts Cancer Institute, Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry (FMD), Charterhouse Square in the City of London. Read more

Designing novel biotherapeutics for effective and targeted treatment of cancer (SACHDEVAA_U24BIGC)

Primary supervisor - Dr Amit Sachdeva. Secondary supervisor - Prof Andy Cammidge. Over the last decade, several antibody-based biotherapeutics have been developed for treatment of cancer. Read more

AI-based Identification of New Drug Targets for Personalised Oncology

A fully funded PhD Studentship is available to work with Professor Francesca Ciccarelli, Lead of the Centre for Cancer Genomics and Computational Biology, Bart's Cancer Institute at Queen Mary University of London. 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

Obtaining insights into how a signalling hub protein Ras activates multiple effectors

The RAS family of small GTPases act as signalling hubs regulating cell proliferation and differentiation. They are highly conserved from yeast to humans, highlighting their fundamental biological roles. Read more
