TRANSFORM: Reducing Inequalities in Cancer Outcomes in Yorkshire: Realising our potential for innovation in Diagnosis, Patient Management, Survivorship and Palliative Care Research Sep 1, 2017 - Dec 31, 2026
The death rate is higher in Yorkshire than the rest of England resulting in about 200 extra deaths each year of which more than half are in Hull. There are other significant cancer outcome inequalities between different groups; for example poorer pe...

The role of bacteria in the skin: Cold atmospheric plasma for the treatment of pathological skin healing Apr 1, 2017 - Mar 31, 2020
Chronic wounds remain a major area of unmet clinical need, with infection a principle contributing factor to wound chronicity. This project builds upon strong preliminary data suggesting that healing outcome can be directly linked to both wound micro...

Can prevention of the activation of PAR2 prevent the release of procoagulant microvesicles from cancer cells, reduce the risk of VTE and contain the deterioration of the vasculature? Jul 1, 2015 - Jun 30, 2020
The study aims to demonstrate the indirect effect of Apixaban on suppressing the release of pro-inflammatory, pro-coagulant tissue factor-containing microvesicles, by inhibiting factor Xa and preventing the activation of PAR2. The study also demonstr...
