The doctoral training programme allows this to happen for the benefit of patients and capitalises on the major strengths in laboratory based and clinic-based cancer research in the school of medicine. The programme will also train the next generation of cancer researchers in Dundee and ensure that they have the broad academic discipline crossing skills needed for their research to make an impact and lead to new more effective treatments for cancer patients in Tayside and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"card card--jol\">\n\n\t                 <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/our-work\/our-researchers\/dr-josh-coates%ef%bf%bc\/\" target=\"_self\">\n        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"card__img card__img--jol\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/283\/2022\/09\/Josh-Coats-1-1024x604.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card__text card__text--jol\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"card__title--jol text-center\">Dr Josh Coats <\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card__excerpt card__excerpt--jol text-center\">I\u2019m Josh and I\u2019m originally from the West of Scotland<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t                         <\/a>\n            \n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"card card--jol\">\n\n\t                 <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/our-work\/our-researchers\/donika-klenja-3\/\" target=\"_self\">\n        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"card__img card__img--jol\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/283\/2022\/09\/Donika-Klenja-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card__text card__text--jol\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"card__title--jol text-center\">Donika Klenja<\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card__excerpt card__excerpt--jol text-center\">My name is Donika Klenja, and I was born and raised in the city of Debar in North Macedonia.                                                                                                                                                                                  <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t                         <\/a>\n            \n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"card card--jol\">\n\n\t                 <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/our-work\/our-researchers\/aanchal-udaynath-pareri%ef%bf%bc%ef%bf%bc\/\" target=\"_self\">\n        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"card__img card__img--jol\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/283\/2022\/09\/Aanchal-Udaynath-Pareri--799x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card__text card__text--jol\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"card__title--jol text-center\">Aanchal Udaynath Pareri <\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card__excerpt card__excerpt--jol text-center\">Hi, my name is Aanchal and I\u2019m from Mumbai, India.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t                         <\/a>\n            \n\t\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:35px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-8f761849 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"card card--jol\">\n\n\t                 <a href=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/our-work\/our-researchers\/andrei-macarie%ef%bf%bc\/\" target=\"_self\">\n        \n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"card__img card__img--jol\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.dundee.ac.uk\/ncc\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/283\/2022\/09\/Andrei-Macarie.jpeg\" alt=\"\" \/>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"card__text card__text--jol\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"card__title--jol text-center\">Andrei Macarie <\/h4>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"card__excerpt card__excerpt--jol text-center\">Greetings!
