Manchester Breast Centre (MBC) is delighted to announce the appointment of Dr Sacha Howell as Director and Dr Sankari Nagarajan as Deputy Director of the MBC, commencing on 1st January 2025. Read our media release to find out more: breastcentre.manchester.ac.uk/News?newsId=290

🚨 The deadline is fast approaching (15th November) for two exciting PhD projects in our lab! Please see the details below and apply if you are interested in using bioinformatics or 'wet lab' techniques to investigate the epigenetics of breast cancer 🧬

Meet @DrHHarrison from @OfficialUoM, our latest #ResearchIsBeautiful image campaign winner🏆  Hannah’s image captures epithelial cells within an explant taken from normal human breast tissue. Find out more and don’t forget to throw in some festive entries in the coming month!

We have two exciting funded PhD opportunities to join my young and vibrant team @Nagarajan_Lab : 1. Bioinformatics PhD on single cell transcriptiomics, genomics, epigenomics and machine learning findaphd.com/phds/project/m… 2. PhD on Molecular biology of cancer dormancy in breast…

🚨 PhD Opportunity! 🚨 Join us for a bioinformatics PhD project on breast cancer epigenetics! Study how loss of the chromatin remodeller ARID1A drives therapy resistance and metastasis in ER+ breast cancer 🧑‍💻👩‍💻 Please RT! findaphd.com/phds/project/m… @Nagarajan_Lab @SNagarajanLab

BREAKING NEWS The 2024 #NobelPrize in Physiology or Medicine has been awarded to Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.

If you are interested in doing a PhD as part of your medical studies, have a look at our project on the molecular mechanisms of differential treatment response in breast cancers. Further information is below 👨‍🔬👩‍🔬🧬 crukcentre.manchester.ac.uk/opportunity_ca…

A few weeks ago I decided to make a last minute decision to run the Oxford Half Marathon @OxfordHalf for @CR_UK There are 4 weeks to go, and any donations would be appreciated! 😊🫡 justgiving.com/fundraising/fu…

Last week, we went for a meal to celebrate the success of our two students who are finishing with us soon! We thank them for their hard work and wish them the best for the future 😊

A few weeks ago I attended the @MCRBreastCentre annual symposium at @MCRCnews with some new members of @Nagarajan_Lab 😊 it was great to hear about all the groundbreaking research that aims to further understand breast cancer, and improve patient care 🧑‍🔬👩‍🔬🧬

I attended the annual meeting of the British Breast Group today. It was an inspiring blend of cutting-edge cancer biology talks and insightful presentations from healthcare professionals and clinicians. Truly informative and engaging! #BBG2024 #CancerResearch

I’m thrilled to share that yesterday I passed my PhD viva! Thank you to my examiners Joy Wang and Mauro Santibanez-Koref for making the viva an enjoyable experience! Also, thanks to my supervisors Bernard Keavney and Andy Sharrocks, and everyone who supported me throughout 🎉 🧬

Congratulations to Dr @HJones___ who just passed his viva 🎉

🎉I'm happy to say that I submitted my PhD thesis today! A huge thank you to everyone who supported and helped along the way @KeavneyLab #PhDone 🥳

Fantastic opportunity for the UK students to do PhD in translational epigenetics with an excellent industrial placement in Astrazeneca in Cambridge. Hurry up with your applications. @MCF_UoM @FBMH_UoM @MCRBreastCentre @MCRCnews @MudassarIqbal40 Iqbal @RobClarkeLab @DrHHarrison…

I'm excited to be talking at an event for current students in @FBMH_UoM @UoMSOBSS next week. I'll be discussing what my day-to-day life is/was like as a PhD student! The link to sign up and ask any questions beforehand is below! 😁 qualtrics.manchester.ac.uk/jfe/form/SV_1R…

(1/n) Excited to share our new review by @JinHarveyYang @NatRevMCB We discuss: 1) spatiotemporal mechanisms of E-P interactions 2) mechanisms of enhancer selectivity 3) pros and cons of 3C and imaging based methods Brief summary thread below: nature.com/articles/s4158…
