Our research projects

Investigating a new method to improve the success of bone marrow transplants, using a different type of blood cells.

Immunotherapy could be a potential treatment for ependymoma. To make immunotherapy effective we need to know more about how ependymoma works.

Osteosarcoma bone cancer affects teenagers, around half of whom die within 5-years of diagnosis. We think we can solve these problems by modifying immune cells called “gamma-delta T-cells”.

Craniopharyngioma, a brain tumour affecting children, is difficult to treat. Work within the laboratories of the investigators has identified potential drugs that could turn off tumour growth. These drugs will be tested in patients whose tumours have regrown in a clinical trial.

This work focuses on defining how a new oncoprotein (called CARM1) we have discovered in neuroblastoma cells helps the cancer cells to survive, grow and avoid death.

This research focuses on the development of novel drugs for the treatment of childhood brain tumours.

Examining whether a group of drugs called gliflozins could be used to treat T-ALL
