Fully-funded PhD in Understanding the Identity and Function of Tumour-Initiating States University of Cambridge in United Kingdom

Fully-funded PhD studentship at the University of Cambridge in the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute with Prof Masashi Narita . The project focuses on tumour-initiating states , preneoplastic cell states , epigenetics , chromatin organisation , and gene regulation . The lab studies how oncogenic and metabolic signalling reshape cell identity, chromatin structure, cellular fitness, and the tissue microenvironment, and how these changes can suppress or promote tumour development. The PhD rese...

PhD opportunity at Cardiff University in the Cardiff School of Biosciences on glioblastoma stem cells , multi-omics , proteomics , protein turnover , and therapy resistance . The project asks how glioblastoma stem cells evade therapy and drive tumour recurrence, with a focus on how FGF2-FGFR1 signalling regulates protein homeostasis and how the downstream ZEB1-HECTD4 axis may control proteostasis and stemness. The work combines computational and experimental approaches, including analysis of exi...
