PhD projects

In my lab we are working to understand colorectal cancers in fine molecular detail, using laboratory models and human tumour tissue. If you want to join us to contribute to this by doing your PhD in the lab, see the projects below:

Non-clinical project to understand translation elongation in cancer:

Clinical project to investigate the glycobiology of cancer:

We also have a self-funded project available to define the molecular mechanisms of leukaemia chemotherapies
