3-year funded PhD studentship at Brighton and Sussex Medical School:
Identifying patients most at risk of developing cancer related fatigue
The purpose of this project is to improve our understanding of CRF by combining patient reported outcomes and proteomic analysis. We want to test if it is possible to predict at diagnosis who will experience CRF during and after treatment. This will allow targeted interventions to be introduced earlier, potentially improving outcomes. By exploring the relationship between subjective measure of CRF and protein changes, our understanding of the natural history of CRF will improve and it may be possible to identify novel treatment targets.
