We are seeking an enthusiastic and highly motivated researcher ideally from an oncology background. The post-holder will work within the Biomaterials group (Gough and Tsigkou) and Translational Radiobiology group (Choudhury). The successful applicant will participate in a research programme that supports the aims of CRUK RadNet Manchester.
The project aims to exploit advanced materials to generate robust tumour microenvironment (TME) models for evaluation of novel drug-radiotherapy approaches. This will be done by developing 3D self-assembling peptide hydrogels that replicate the complex biophysical properties of the extracellular matrix and allow introduction of composite cell populations of the TME. The system will reproduce physical, biochemical and physiological cues that drive cancer cell behaviour in vivo.
