The London Research Institute has an international reputation for research into the basic biology of cancer and is committed to training the next generation of cancer research scientist. Our research groups, based in laboratories at Lincoln's Inn Fields (Central London) and Clare Hall (just north of London), are well-resourced and benefit from state-of-the-art equipment and scientific services.
PhD students are at the core of our scientific community. To enable our students to develop into independent research scientists with excellent career prospects, we provide exciting and challenging research projects, a supportive environment, and tailored transferable skills training. Our students are registered at University College London, which provides additional academic and social facilities.
