We have 41 Biological Sciences (clinical trials) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Understanding Hormone Regulation in Skin Cancer Development and Progression

Skin cancers, including melanoma and non-melanoma skin cancers, pose a significant global health burden. While the role of hormones in skin cancer development and progression remains an underexplored area, recent research has suggested potential links between hormonal regulation and skin cancer outcomes.

Nanoparticle synthesis and application in magnetic field hyperthermia for cancer therapy

  Research Group: Chemistry and Biosciences
Magnetic field hyperthermia (MFH) is currently undergoing clinical trials for use in humans. The research to date has shown the effectiveness of the approach in cells and animal models and the initial results from human trials are promising. Read more

Three 3-year PhD Funded Studentships in the School of Medicine

The School of Medicine is the largest school in the University, covering a diverse range of medical, surgical, and other healthcare disciplines. Read more

NIHR Leeds BRC: Multimodal predictive modelling of outcome in patients with gastrointestinal cancer

Worldwide, cancer of the upper (oesophagus, stomach) and lower gastrointestinal (colon and rectum) tract is newly diagnosed in 3.6 million patients every year and 2.2 million patients die from this disease every year. 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

Interdisciplinary investigation of the role of amino acids in immunometabolic responses to metformin in human cells

There is overwhelming evidence that inflammation contributes to the development of cardiovascular disease (CVD) but counterbalancing this is evidence from meta-analysis of randomised control trials that many existing anti-inflammatory drugs, such as COX2 inhibitors and anti-TNF drugs, tend if anything to exacerbate risk of CVD.
