Dynamic cell biology programme (360G-Wellcome-093545_Z_10_Z)
My goal is to continue using the zebrafish to learn more about how innate immune cells interact with transformed cells in vivo at the earliest stages of cancer initiation and how these compare with other functions of the immune system. I will have three main objectives: 1. To identify the changes in gene expression of immune cells when faced with transformed cells; 2. To compare these ?cancer cell triggered? changes in gene expression with immune cells exposed to wounds and/or microbial infections; 3. To investigate how the immune response to wounding impacts upon the response to a cancer cell burden, and consequently model minimally invasive cancer surgery.
