PhD Opportunity in Tumour Immunology and Cancer Research at IdiPAZ IdiPAZ Institute of Biomedical Research in Spain

This fully funded PhD studentship is based at the CRUK Scotland Centre and the University of Glasgow , with research focused on colorectal cancer biology, tumour-cell plasticity and metastasis. The project, titled “Restraining colorectal cancer cell plasticity by driving tumour cells towards a stable, terminally differentiated state,” builds on the research team’s findings that loss of ATRX drives multilineage plasticity and metastatic behaviour. The doctoral researcher will investigate how canc...

The Maus Lab at the Vall d’Hebron Institute of Oncology investigates how aging influences cancer development and progression. This PhD project addresses a fundamental question in cancer biology: although precancerous cells are common, why do only some individuals develop cancer? The research will examine how aging gives precancerous cells a competitive advantage and how this altered cellular competition may promote colorectal cancer. The project aims to identify mechanisms through which aging re...

PhD project in neutrophil plasticity and immune-cell reprogramming This PhD opportunity is part of the newly funded REG-HUB project, which asks how immune cells can be reprogrammed to change their responses to cancer and infection. The research will focus on how neutrophils acquire distinct functional identities and how these cellular programs can be manipulated to reshape immune responses. The doctoral researcher will investigate the molecular mechanisms controlling neutrophil plasticity and fu...
