About

Professor Andrew Macdonald is a faculty member at the University of Leeds, specializing in Tumour Virology. His research focuses on various aspects of cancer biology, particularly the mechanisms by which viruses, such as HPV and KSHV, contribute to tumor development and progression. Recent publications highlight his work on Ras signalling modulation, the Hippo pathway in cervical cancer, and the role of ATP-sensitive potassium ion channels in cancer cell proliferation.
