Working on cancer research and cell signalling at the University of Liverpool.

University of Liverpool.
Joined May 2011
Returning to the lab after a great week at @BiochemSoc Small G Proteins in Cellular Signalling and Disease 2025. Blown away by the high calibre of research on display, and grateful to have been able to showcase our work after years in development. #BiochemEvent #SGP25

Thrilled to share progress on Ras isoform binders! Using AI-driven protein design, I’ve targeted the challenging, highly charged and disordered C-terminus of Ras. These de novo binders exceed antibody specificity and effectively disrupt Ras signaling. biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…

Exciting talk from @AndrewMWaters about the distinct resistance mechanisms of different #RAS inhibitors in #pancreaticcancer @FASEBorg Function & Regulation of Small #GTPases meeting. Can’t wait what his lab @uofcincycancer will achieve in the coming years! #RGTPSRC

Delighted our work on the importance of choosing the right proliferation assay is now published. This could have affected the assessment of many drugs, especially anti-cancer drugs, although our work focussed on CDK4/6 inhibitors. (Tweets to explain below) nature.com/articles/s41523-0…

PerturbView enables in vivo CRISPR screens with single cell spatial resolution (biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/…). CRISPR sgRNA are uniquely identified over 6 rounds of in situ sequencing. Attached is an animation of in situ sequencing of sgRNAs in a tumor xenograft (1/4)

Why drug holidays? Matthias simple mathematical model shows how intermittent treatment outperforms continuous treatment, both if two populations of tumour cells exist or if resistance is induced by the treatment. @compcancer doi.org/10.1016/j.jtbi.2023.…
