Professor Tyson V. Sharp
Professor of Cellular and Molecular Biology
My group’s work focuses on the role of the tumour suppressor protein LIMD1 and its family members Ajuba and WTIP and how their deregulation in normal tissue contributes to the development of lung, renal and breast cancer.
Dr Stéphanie Kermorgant
Reader in Cellular Oncology
We study the role of growth factor receptor signalling and intracellular trafficking (movement inside cells) in tumour growth and metastasis in the view of improving cancer therapy.
Dr Barrie Peck
Lecturer
My lab aims to understand the alterations in metabolism that take place in cancer and investigate whether extrinsic factors, such as diet, influence cancer metabolism and disease trajectory. We then want to uncover whether these dependencies can be exploited therapeutically.
Dr Lovorka Stojic
Lecturer
My group studies how RNA-mediated mechanisms, in particular long noncoding RNAs, regulate cell division and how dysregulation of these processes leads to genome instability and cancer.
Dr Miguel Hermida
My project studies the influence that the loss of the tumour suppressor protein LIMD1 has in renal and lung cancers by identifying selective drugs, targets and the cell signalling involved in order to improve the current therapy.
Dr Kunal Shah
I am studying how the tumour suppressor gene LIMD1 functions in the microRNA pathway, a gene regulatory pathway that is often dysregulated in cancer.
