🚨 The deadline is fast approaching (15th November) for two exciting PhD projects in our lab! Please see the details below and apply if you are interested in using bioinformatics or 'wet lab' techniques to investigate the epigenetics of breast cancer 🧬
We have two exciting funded PhD opportunities to join my young and vibrant team @Nagarajan_Lab :
1. Bioinformatics PhD on single cell transcriptiomics, genomics, epigenomics and machine learning https://t.co/VRDUBG7vi1
2. PhD on Molecular biology of cancer dormancy in breast cancers https://t.co/dxlrPi4nEb
We have put together a fantastic supervisory team @davidcwedge @MudassarIqbal40 @RobClarkeLab@DrHHarrison from @FBMH_UoM@MCF_UoM@MCRCnews@MCRBreastCentre and the notorious @MagnaniLab_ICR @CBrisken for collaboration. Come and join us.
Meet @DrHHarrison from @OfficialUoM, our latest #ResearchIsBeautiful image campaign winner🏆
Hannah’s image captures epithelial cells within an explant taken from normal human breast tissue. Find out more and don’t forget to throw in some festive entries in the coming month!

BREAKING NEWS
The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.
If you are interested in doing a PhD as part of your medical studies, have a look at our project on the molecular mechanisms of differential treatment response in breast cancers. Further information is below 👨🔬👩🔬🧬

Last week, we went for a meal to celebrate the success of our two students who are finishing with us soon! We thank them for their hard work and wish them the best for the future 😊
A few weeks ago I attended the @MCRBreastCentre annual symposium at @MCRCnews with some new members of @Nagarajan_Lab 😊 it was great to hear about all the groundbreaking research that aims to further understand breast cancer, and improve patient care 🧑🔬👩🔬🧬
I attended the annual meeting of the British Breast Group today. It was an inspiring blend of cutting-edge cancer biology talks and insightful presentations from healthcare professionals and clinicians. Truly informative and engaging! #BBG2024#CancerResearch
I’m thrilled to share that yesterday I passed my PhD viva! Thank you to my examiners Joy Wang and Mauro Santibanez-Koref for making the viva an enjoyable experience! Also, thanks to my supervisors Bernard Keavney and Andy Sharrocks, and everyone who supported me throughout 🎉 🧬
📢 PhD Opportunity! 📢
Join us for a 4-year PhD studentship with @SNagarajanLab to study chromatin modifying proteins during resistance to oestrogen receptor inhibitors in metastatic breast cancer🔬
Details below, deadline 13th May!
Please RT!🙏
