G. Vignir Helgason

The University of Glasgow is offering a PhD studentship through the MRC DTP in Precision Medicine , based in a cancer research laboratory led by Professor G. Vignir Helgason. The project will investigate the role and function of top-scoring genes identified through a meta-analysis of chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) leukemia stem-cell datasets, with a particular focus on RXFP1 . The research is centered on understanding gene function in CML leukemia stem cells and may contribute to precision medicine approaches in cancer research. The opportunity is suitable for students interested in cancer biology, leukemia stem-cell research, molecular genetics, genomics, and precision medicine. Samanta Mariani is also associated with the opportunity. A Q&A webinar is scheduled for 16:00 GMT on 08/12/26.
