Research interests

The Translational Pharmacology Laboratory (TPL) aims to translate novel discoveries from basic laboratory research into patients by exploring novel anti-cancer therapies within clinical trials.  Our research is focused on the discovery and application of biomarkers to improve our understanding of drug action and patient response. By applying state-of the-art technologies, the TPL aims to develop novel strategies for molecular profiling and monitoring of pharmacodynamic biomarkers in tumour, blood and other ‘surrogate’ tissue sample types obtained from cancer patients. Our ultimate aim is to develop optimised, personalised treatments with improved therapeutic benefit for cancer patients.
 
As a key component of the Glasgow Experimental Cancer Medicine Centre (ECMC), the TPL works in close collaboration with researchers from CRUK’s Clinical Trials Unit, Glasgow and from the Beatson West of Scotland Cancer Centre.  The TPL is typically involved in biomarker discovery for more than a dozen early-phase oncology clinical trials at any given time. The TPL is one of only four UK laboratories awarded funding by CRUK’s Centre for Drug Development (CRUK-CDD) as a ‘CRUK Centre of Biomarker Excellence’.
