Please see our overview of our most recently published research below - and the link to the actual paper: doi.org/10.1186/s13059…
We are thrilled to have published our recent findings regarding the way that GBM tumours adapt to, and survive, treatment in @GenomeBiology This brief thread highlights what we found: 1/8
Wonderful to hear from Fiona James from @Lorgerlab talking about fascinating work dissecting immune responses to brain mets #CRUKBrain24 @LeedsCancerRes @LIMRLeeds @LeedsMedHealth
What an honour to have @abhinavjain_phd from @MDAndersonNews come & tell us all about his pioneering epigenomics research. Thanks 4 a great talk, & joining some of the @GliomaGenomics 4 lunch afterwards. Excited to see what our collaborative efforts in GBM profiling will reveal!
I had a great pleasure to visit @UniversityLeeds to present our work on #lncRNA #p53 #epigenomics. Thank you @LucyFStead for the kind invitation & arranging my visit. Also, honored to catch up with Prof. John Ladbury and interacting with the wonderful trainees!!
Pledges to increase brain tumour research funding in the UK have not improved outcomes, as was hoped. Our position paper opines why "Adult brain tumour research in 2024: Status, challenges and recommendations" doi.org/10.1111/nan.12… @KarinPurshouse @allyrooney @jenkinsonmd
📢Calling all paediatric brain tumour researchers 📢 Grants of up to £20k are available to fund projects over a 12-month duration 🧪🧬🧑🔬👩🔬🧠
Clinical trustee @LeedsNeuro recently launched our Research Call at the British Paediatric Neuro-oncology Group conference in Leeds Head to oscarspbtc.org/research to learn more as we look for innovative project ideas that help children at any point along the paediatric pathway
Well done, Morgan, we're super proud of you 🥳
Our own Morgan Thomas, part of @LeedsMedAI_CDT, won Best Poster at the Northern Bioinformatic User Group meeting last week, showcasing his fantastic PhD research using machine learning to assess brain tumour purity – so necessary 4 downstream analyses @LIMRleeds @LeedsCancerRes
🎉EXCITING OPPORTUNITY to do a PhD 🎓in single cell brain cancer bioinformatics 🧠🧬👨💻! Co-supervised by @rachelq_ncl Project details are here: tinyurl.com/AmazingPhDoppo… & scheme info & how to apply: tinyurl.com/InfoAndApplica… Deadline to apply is 17th Dec 👀
Heading home after 2 amazing days of cancer science & sightseeing in beautiful Leuven; full of ideas & inspiration for tackling therapy driven plasticity in GBM. Highlight talks for me were @KarunaGaneshLab @LeilaAkkari1 @ItaiYanai & Dana Pe'er #THPT23 @VIBConferences
Wonderful to see the @LeedsNeuroRTB manager, Steven Pollock, at the @UniversityLeeds Technican Expo event yesterday, explaining about what goes into collecting and processing brain tissue to facilitate cutting edge research @UoL_technicians @MedicineDean @LIMRLeeds
It's been a record breaking quarter for applications to our tissue bank funded by @OscarsCharity and @YorkshireBTC . Check our our latest Research Roundup, highlighting just a few of the studies and success stories 👇
You might be sick of seeing us this wk but there’s a great film on @BBCBreakfast this morning at 7:30 & 9. It talks about research, brainbanks & the future of treatment for #GBM@ourbrainbank @BNOSofficial @LucyFStead @RogerJ_01 bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episod…
It was a real honour to watch @Rhiannon_Barrow graduate yesterday. It wasn't always easy (trying to cure brain cancer is tough, & through COVID to boot!) but she worked hard & showed great problem-solving ability & resilience. A PhD well earned. Congratulations Dr Barrow 👏 🙌👩🎓
Congratulations to our own Yousef Alghamdi for achieving a Top Scoring abstract at #BNOS2023 and giving a great oral presentation. GBM profiling thanks to #GLASS and @LeedsNeuroRTB @OscarsCharity @YorkshireBTC
A real pleasure to open the recurrent GBM session at #BNOS2023, and talk about recent findings from GBM research giants @roelverhaak @MarioSuva @TiroshLab @landau_lab @diazlaboratory & owork in @GliomaGenomics (tinyurl.com/mrf3br9e) We can learn so much from patient tissue!
Morgan Thomas is explaining his work on developing machine learning approaches to stratify GBM patients for more effective treatments at #BNOS2023
We took cytoplasm from a GBM cell to get its transcriptional profile WITHOUT KILLING THE CELL so we could do the same again, for the same cell, at a later time point. 🤯This blows my mind & is so needed to research glioma cell plasticity! @BrainTumourOrg @UKRI_News @SENTINEL_ITN
Single cell RNA-seq has changed our understanding of cellular heterogeneity but it only provides a snapshot at a fixed time point of the cell transcriptome... not any more ! biorxiv.org/content/10.110…
HIRING! I am looking for a computational biologist to come and help cure brain cancer and progress this work: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… Apply by 7th July here: jobs.leeds.ac.uk/Vacancy.aspx?i… The role is highly likely to be extended beyond Sept '24 @northernbug @GliomaGenomics @leedsomics
