MPhil Pathology
Overview
Cancer medicine research is aimed at developing discoveries that can ultimately be translated into patient benefits.
Scientific research in the Department is performed in an environment that has a wealth of clinical expertise and research which ensures that basic scientific research is always performed with insights of relevance to patients provided by leading clinical teams and an awareness of detailed clinical issues.
The Institute of Translational Medicine is equipped with a wide range of the latest microscopy capabilities for modern biomedical research. Our imaging platforms enable continuous correlative imaging studies from nanometer resolution through to whole animal imaging. We provide support ranging from initial project discussion and planning through to training, application of techniques and assistance with data interpretation.
Our research interests
- Clinical studies conducted with the intent to advance therapies to the clinic or develop principles for application of therapeutics to human disease
- Non-human or non-clinical studies conducted with the intent to advance therapies to the clinic or develop principles for application of therapeutics to human disease
- Investigations in humans which define the biology of disease and provide the scientific foundation for the development of new or improved therapies for human disease
- Any clinical trial of a therapy that was initiated based on the above
- The biology-chemistry “bridge”.
Research themes
Our research themes include:
- Fundamental studies of cancer cells and the molecular biology of cancer
- Translational research and tumour specific research in many areas including:
- Pancreatic cancer
- Haemato-Oncology
- Head and Neck cancer
- Liver Cancer
- Lung cancer
- Colorectal cancer
- Gastro-oesophageal cancer
- Urological cancer (including Renal Cancer)
- Breast cancer.
