Today, on #WorldCancerDay, we’re taking you behind the scenes at Queen Mary's Barts Cancer Institute and introducing you to the people who are making progress possible.
Follow us to stay up to date with new developments.
🧪 #UnitedByUnique #MedSky #OncoSky @qmul.bsky.social @cancerresearchuk.org
Lab website has been updated including a very nice news section! Www.mcclellandlab.com/news
Are you a future black leader in cancer? Come join @mirazrahman.bsky.social and my labs @qmbci.bsky.social @kingscollegelondon.bsky.social to work on turning defective cell cycle checkpoints into innovative cancer therapies! Get in touch for more details www.colcc.ac.uk/2026-blic-ph...
Apply to join our lab for a very cool PhD project studying radiation therapy, chromosomal instability, DNA repair and cancer evolution!
@mcclellandlab.bsky.social hosted Prof Raksawan Deenonpoe from Thailand so she could collaborate with @mollyguscott.bsky.social & I to look for evidence of chromosomal instability in cholangiocarcinoma. Our work is now published in Journal of Pathology.
End of a great week. Last week I was lucky enough to attend the Wellcome Summer School - Evolutionary Biology and Ecology of Cancer, such a wealth of perspectives of how we understand cancer! @eventswcs.bsky.social
Then topped off watching Norris win the British GP at Silverstone! #EBECancer25
here this week learning with all of our students at #EBECancer25 @eventswcs.bsky.social ! having a lot of Sudoku-type fun at our “grammar of somatic evolution” with tutor @afrankell.bsky.social
Underdogs? Girls showing them how it’s done! @arsenalwfc.bsky.social #COYG
Delighted to introduce Dr Caroline Babisz! Thank you @pseudoenzyme.bsky.social and Richard for being ace examiners 🔎. @qmbci.bsky.social
Delighted to share our new preprint revealing a novel mechanism of ATR inhibitor sensitivity linked to lethal origin firing, thanks Sarah @mcclellandlab.bsky.social and collaborators!
Happy to post our first preprint in a while! www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1.... This was a slightly new direction for us, spearheaded by amazing post-doc @audreylumeau.bsky.social. Short thread to follow 🧬
High levels of DNA replication initiation factors indicate ATR inhibitor sensitivity via excessive origin firing https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2025.02.27.640046v1
Really exciting news from our faculty member Professor Sarah McClelland @mcclellandlab.bsky.social.
Her £1.5m grant from @cancerresearchuk.org will help her to address the fundamental question in cancer research – why are cancer genomes so chaotic?
We won PhD student, technician, scientific achievement and postdoc of the year, well done @mcclellandlab.bsky.social !
We have a very cool (I know I am biased😁) project for a computational biologist (postdoc) interested in cancer evolution in collaboration with Nicky McGranahan’s lab! Perfect opportunity to expand your computational skills too!

RT please 🙏🙏🙏👍👍
Congratulations to Prof Sarah McClelland @mcclellandlab.bsky.social at BCI who has been awarded £1.5m by @cancerresearchuk.org.
We spoke to Prof McClelland about her plans to investigate the genetic chaos within cancer cells⤵

I’ve migrated here from the bird app so thought I’d (re)introduce myself and my group 👋🏻. I’m Tanya and I head the Kinase Signalling and Cancer group (aka The SoliLab) @ Barts Cancer Institute @qmbci.bsky.social Our research sits at the interface of fundamental kinase biology and cancer biology.
