Summary
How pancreatic cancers invade and activate nerves to promote cancer-associated pain is a major unknown in cancer biology. This project brings together cancer biology and neuroscience expertise across the Universities of Bath and Exeter. You will use 3D cell-culture models together with electrophysiology techniques and zebrafish to study the interactions between tumour cells and nerves and identify therapeutic targets for cancer-associated pain.
