Research
Environmental Carcinogenesis Research Group
We study environmental carcinogens and the mechanisms by which they exert their deleterious biological effects, in order to better understand the causes of cancer and improve strategies for cancer prevention.
Organoids Research Interest Group (ORIG)
Organoids are 3D, miniature versions of organs grown from stem cells. They replicate organ structure and function, making them essential for studying tissue homeostasis, disease mechanisms, and developing new therapies. This research interest group encompasses all organoid-related research at King’s College London.
