Fully Funded BHF Discovery Research Studentship in In Vivo Physiology and Long-Read Transcriptomics (PhD) University of Dundee in United Kingdom

PhD Studentship at the University of Cambridge in the Department of Pathology on functional effects of dysregulated microRNA-mediated cellular pathways in malignant germ cell tumours . The project, led by Dr Matthew Murray , focuses on cancer biology and translational biomedical research. It builds on prior work targeting over-expressed miR-371~373 and miR-302/367 and replenishing downregulated miRNAs such as let-7 and miR-100-5p/125b-5p in malignant germ cell tumour cell lines. The new students...
