PhD Studentship: Defining the role of the pioneer factor FOXA1 in hormone-dependent cancer

This four-year studentship is funded by Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute and includes full funding for University fees and an index-linked stipend starting at £22,500 for four years. Professor Jason Carroll wishes to recruit a student to work on the project entitled 'Defining the role of the pioneer factor FOXA1 in hormone-dependent cancer'. The studentship provides comprehensive support including coverage for home and international fees, maintenance stipend, student visa costs, and immigration health surcharge. The research will be conducted at the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Institute, focusing on understanding the role of transcription factors and associated proteins in hormone-dependent cancer, particularly in the context of neuroendocrine prostate cancer.
