About this position
A funded PhD position is available in the laboratory of Professor Ester Hammond at the University of Oxford. The research focuses on exploring the biology underpinning the response to hypoxia in tumours and investigating how these mechanisms can be targeted to improve radiotherapy outcomes. This opportunity is ideal for candidates interested in molecular cancer biology, tumour microenvironment, and translational approaches to cancer therapy.
The position is fully funded and will commence in October 2026. Applicants should have a strong background in biology or a related discipline and a keen interest in cancer research, particularly in the areas of tumour hypoxia and radiotherapy. The project aims to advance understanding of the molecular pathways involved in tumour response to low oxygen conditions and to identify novel strategies for enhancing the effectiveness of radiotherapy in cancer treatment.
The University of Oxford provides a vibrant research environment with access to state-of-the-art facilities and a collaborative academic community. The successful candidate will join a leading research group and benefit from mentorship by Professor Ester Hammond, an expert in molecular cancer biology.
