Professor Richard Grose
Professor of Cancer Cell Biology

We are interested in how cancer cells interact with each other and the microenvironment. We investigate how cancer cell communication with neighbouring stromal cells and the extracellular matrix can impact on invasion and response to targeted therapies, to try to block cancer progression, with a particular focus on breast and pancreatic cancer.

Dr Barrie Peck
Senior Lecturer

My lab aims to understand the alterations in metabolism that take place in cancer and investigate whether extrinsic factors, such as diet, influence cancer metabolism and disease trajectory. We then want to uncover whether these dependencies can be exploited therapeutically.

Dr Lucas Baumard

In my research, I examine the response of immune cells to different chemotherapy drugs in order to develop more effective cancer immunotherapy combinations. I use patient-derived organoids (from oesophageal cancer patients), 3D models, T cell co-culture models, flow cytometry, IHC(-F, H&E) and ELISA.

Dr Joash Joy

My research focuses on building human tumour models within microfluidic chips that recapitulate features of the tumour microenvironment, such as blood vessels.

Dr Beatrice Malacrida

My research focuses on designing 3D in vitro models to understand the contribution of the tumour microenvironment during HGSOC progression.

Dr Elly Tyler

My research investigates a specific composition of extracellular matrix molecules which may explain the difference between responders and non-responders to immunotherapy.
