Project title - Utilising explant-in-chip models to identify candidate biomarkers for improving neoadjuvant therapy in high-risk soft tissue sarcoma

What inspired you to choose this project?

Soft tissue sarcomas are rare cancers with poor clinical outcomes. By using a novel experimental platform, I hope to better understand the factors which affect response to standard-of-care chemotherapies.

How will this impact patients: Identifying factors associated with treatment response will help clinicians tailor treatments to those patients who will derive most benefit.

Interesting fact about yourself

I had lived on four different continents by the time I was 16.

Project title - Utilising deep learning and radiogenomics to predict clinical outcomes in hepatocellular carcinoma.


What inspired you to choose this project?

This project using artificial intelligence approaches to predict liver cancer patients' treatment response to different therapies, based on their pre-treatment imaging.

 

This will impact the treatment liver cancer patients are given by allowing use to identify which patients will benefit from personalised therapies, based purely on their imaging features.
