PhD student Florentia Mousoullou from our Leukaemia Immunology & Transplantation group (https://lnkd.in/e8c_vj47) has put together a fantastic video review of the International PhD Student Conference (#IPSCC2024) which brings together cancer researchers from many different institutes for discussion, training and networking. If you're a new #PhD #student, check out this video for a great insight into what attending a conference is like 👇

Excited to share the culmination of my Master's capstone research project, where I explored the fascinating interplay between Vagus Nerve activity and the proliferation of Small Intestine Adenocarcinoma. My findings shed light on potential pathways for targeted therapies and open new avenues for understanding the intricate mechanisms underlying cancer progression. I loved having the opportunity to unveil the insights gained from this groundbreaking literature review combined with my knowledge of biomedical sciences to study physiological impacts on Small Intestinal cancer and sharing the findings with my classmates and program director. #VagusNerve #CancerResearch #CapstoneProject #MedicalScience #GastroenterologyResearch

Deep insights into the use of machine learning and omics in targeting challenging diseases like medulloblastoma and breast cancer, by prof. Deena Mohamad Gendoo of University of Birmingham, in her seminar talk yesterday entitled "Combining the Right Model and the Right Drug to Target Disease". Essential material for anyone interested in the forefront of computational biology and personalized medicine. #campuslife #cslife #compsci

I am excited to share that I have completed the Cancer Biology course offered by Johns Hopkins University. This comprehensive program provided me with an in-depth understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms of cancer, covering critical topics such as tumor development, progression, and potential therapeutic strategies. Grateful for the opportunity to advance my knowledge in this field, and I look forward to applying these insights to future endeavors in healthcare and research. #CancerBiology #Healthcare #Research #JohnsHopkins"

For a top medical researcher, time is the most important resource. Associate Professor Tuomas Mirtti is doing research on prostate cancer and sees great prospects for Finnish research, if more and more time can be devoted precisely to research:   "It would be good to find more means of helping researchers use more time for actual research and for reporting the results.”   Read the whole article: https://lnkd.in/dSs5b3cu

I'm here today at Queen Mary University of London - Barts Cancer Institute & William Harvey Research Institute at the bottom of this menacing staircase in the lobby to speak with you about your single cell work. Come by to learn more about whole genome & transcriptome multiomics, getting deeper analysis of primary samples, and to grab a snazzy notebook! ✨️ #singlecell #multiomics
