My Work
My main research themes relate to resistance to cancer therapies and stratified medicine including the development of clinical trials to investigate the clinical and cost-effectiveness of both new and existing treatments. I am part of the QUB Centre for Cancer Research and Cell Biology (CCRCB) Drug Resistance Group working particularly with Prof. D Longley, and also with Prof. M Salto-Tellez, in translational research that focuses on potential biomarkers and mechanisms of resistance to commonly used anti-cancer therapies, in particular the role of the immune response in resistance to treatment and immunogenic cell death.
