Pharmacology (drug resistance) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

We have 18 Pharmacology (drug resistance) PhD Projects, Programmes & Scholarships

Endosomal Sorting Complex Required for Transport (ESCRT): Investigation of the role in acquired drug resistance in colon cancer

  Research Group: Institute of Cancer Therapeutics
Despite treatment advances, one of the most common cancers, colorectal cancer (CRC), still has a 45% mortality rate, and one of the major problems is the build-up of resistance to cancer drugs during treatment (‘acquired resistance’) such that over time the drugs stop working. Read more

Investigating how dormant senescent cells can drive drug-resistance following chemotherapy

Most anti-cancer chemotherapeutics work by inducing DNA damage and arresting the cell cycle in either G1 or G2 phase. A frequent outcome of this arrest is that cells exit the cell cycle into a state known as senescence. Read more

Lessening Health Inequalities in Type 2 Diabetes Through Innovative Drug Repurposing

Most older type 2 diabetes (T2D) drugs were developed through pre-clinical studies and then trials that model T2D as it is experienced by older white people (1). Read more

Towards the development of a novel class of broad-spectrum anti-infective drugs

Through exceptionally strong research collaborations at the interface of chemistry, biology, and medicine, we have applied innovative thinking to the field of (Minor Groove Binders) MGBs to develop a novel platform for drug discovery with the potential to treat an impressive range of diseases, including bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral infections. Read more

Vascularisation of tumour organoids for mechanistic and drug development

Gliomas such as are the most common form of brain tumour, a subset Glioblastoma (GBM) are devastating adult brain cancer with high rates of recurrence and treatment resistance. Read more

Transcriptome biomarkers and mechanisms of chemoresistance

Project Summary. This project aims to identify biomarkers linked to the most potent multimodal anticancer therapy with the least toxicity to counteract hemoresistance in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Read more

Novel strategy for treatment of chronic wounds via multi-functional liposomal nanocarriers

  Research Group: Medicines Development and Pharmaceutical Sciences
A confounding issue of non-healing skin wounds is the presence of pathogenic bacteria, that protect themselves from conventional antibiotic treatments by encasing themselves within protective shields (biofilms). Read more
