Apply to join our lab for a very cool PhD project studying radiation therapy, chromosomal instability, DNA repair and cancer evolution!
We are looking for our next PhD student to join us 🤩 www.mcclellandlab.com to understand cancer radiation therapy's impact on DNA damage repair and chromosomal instability. Prestigious funding from CRUK RadNet. Please contact me informally - deadline 5th Nov! crukradnet.colcc.ac.uk/phd-students...

@mcclellandlab.bsky.social hosted Prof Raksawan Deenonpoe from Thailand so she could collaborate with @mollyguscott.bsky.social & I to look for evidence of chromosomal instability in cholangiocarcinoma. Our work is now published in Journal of Pathology.

End of a great week. Last week I was lucky enough to attend the Wellcome Summer School - Evolutionary Biology and Ecology of Cancer, such a wealth of perspectives of how we understand cancer! @eventswcs.bsky.social
Then topped off watching Norris win the British GP at Silverstone! #EBECancer25

Underdogs? Girls showing them how it’s done! @arsenalwfc.bsky.social #COYG
Unbelievable. What an incredible effort.

What a win, what a performance.

History makers. Champions of Europe 👏👏👏

Delighted to share our new preprint revealing a novel mechanism of ATR inhibitor sensitivity linked to lethal origin firing, thanks Sarah @mcclellandlab.bsky.social and collaborators!
Happy to post our first preprint in a while! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1.... This was a slightly new direction for us, spearheaded by amazing post-doc @audreylumeau.bsky.social. Short thread to follow 🧬

Really exciting news from our faculty member Professor Sarah McClelland @mcclellandlab.bsky.social.

Her £1.5m grant from @cancerresearchuk.org will help her to address the fundamental question in cancer research – why are cancer genomes so chaotic?

We have a very cool (I know I am biased😁) project for a computational biologist (postdoc) interested in cancer evolution in collaboration with Nicky McGranahan’s lab! Perfect opportunity to expand your computational skills too!

I’ve migrated here from the bird app so thought I’d (re)introduce myself and my group 👋🏻. I’m Tanya and I head the Kinase Signalling and Cancer group (aka The SoliLab) @ Barts Cancer Institute @qmbci.bsky.social Our research sits at the interface of fundamental kinase biology and cancer biology.
