Sussex Blood Cancer Research

The Sussex Blood Cancer Research is a network of seven labs across the School of Life Sciences at the University of Sussex and Brighton and Sussex Medical School. The researchers involved have shared interests in the molecular mechanisms active in normal and malignant haematology (the branch of medicine involving study and treatment of the blood). The broad remit of the Sussex Blood Cancer Research Group is to increase understanding of the molecular changes that occur in blood cancers, with the ultimate aim of designing novel and effective therapies.

Overview

The network adopts a range of translational, computational and biochemical approaches in the laboratory, to investigate the molecular mechanisms driving blood cancer. The group pools resources and ideas, to not only foster closer collaboration between the two Schools involved, but also University Hospitals Sussex NHS Foundation Trust to maximise translational impact of research for patients.

In addition to laboratory based research, the group hosts vibrant and engaging seminar sessions to share and discuss research findings with the aim of training and inspiring the next generation of haematology scientists and doctors. Please consult Meet the team below to learn about specific research interests.
