Area of expertise |
|
Professor Joan Boyes |
Understanding how errors in V(D)J recombination lead to lymphoid cancers |
|
Dr Edwin Chen |
Our lab seeks to understand the impact of the bone marrow microenvironment on normal and malignant haematopoiesis |
|
Dr Andrew Macdonald |
Communication between keratinocytes and basal fibroblasts is essential both for normal epithelial cell homeostasis and in disease. We aim to understand how this communication is regulated and how it is perturbed in disease |
|
Professor Michelle Peckham |
Role of the cytoskeleton in metastasis |
|
Dr Sreenivasan Ponnambalam |
Regulation of tumour angiogenesis by the VEGF-VEGFR axis |
|
Dr Natalia Riobo-Del Galdo |
Regulation of Hedgehog signalling in cancer cells and stromal fibroblasts by autocrine and paracrine communication and its role in the progression of basal cell carcinoma, medulloblastoma, breast and colorectal cancer |
|
Dr Darren Tomlinson |
In vitro and in vivo imaging of solid tumours and cancer cells |
