Welcome to the homepage of the Clinical and Biomedical Proteomics team led by Roz Banks and Peter Selby. We are based in the Cancer Research UK Clinical Centre, which is located on the St James's University Hospital campus in Leeds, UK.
One of our main research focuses is renal cancer where we are aiming to identify new markers of disease or novel therapeutic targets and also to increase our understanding of the underlying pathogenesis by examining the functional implications of our findings. However, we are also involved in a series of collaborative clinical proteomics projects in several other cancers and diseases including renal transplant rejection (acute and chronic), multiple sclerosis and Parkinson.s disease, with similar but very disease-specific aims, and in clinical trials. Many of our group activities are funded as part of the Cancer Research UK Cancer Clinical Proteomics Programme in Leeds (co-PIs Roz Banks and Peter Selby).
Information about our activities and many aspects of proteomics and the diseases in which we are involved can be found by selecting the appropriate navigation links above. An overview was recently published in the Leeds alumnus magazine "Medicine Matters" and can be viewed from this link.
