Interests
The interest and experience of my laboratory relates to complex multi-cellular models MCMs of the tumour microenvironment, especially in ovarian cancer. Having completed a multi-level deconstruction of ovarian cancer metastases, we have begun to reconstruct 3D multi-cellular models of these metastases using primary adipocytes, fibroblasts, mesothelial cells, monocytes and malignant cells. We are also currently working to vascularise these MCMs. We are using the models to understand cell cell communication in the tumour microenvironment, test new biological therapies and study sensitivity and resistance to T cell killing.Publications
