Our research projects

Phillip Karpowicz Headshot
Does the time we eat affect bowel cancer development?

Dr Karpowicz believes one of the causes of bowel cancer could be that changes to our lifestyle disturb the circadian rhythm of our guts – and with the support of our Curestarters he will be able to test this idea. 

Helder Maiato Headshot
Can we tackle drug resistance by de-coding the structure of cells?

Patients often respond well to chemotherapy only to later develop treatment resistance – meaning the cancer comes back and the chemotherapy has stopped working. Professor Maiato wants to find ways to prevent this treatment resistance.

Will stopping a tiny protein improve pancreatic cancer treatment?

Our pancreatic cancer research project in Qatar is investigating a possible new way to improve treatment success for patients. Dr Khan and his team are hoping to make cancer cells more vulnerable to chemotherapy.
