Meet Your Instructor
Dr. Christos Evangelou
Ph.D. in Cancer Biology, Division of Molecular and Clinical Cancer Sciences, University of Manchester, UK. Areas of expertise include cancer immunology, melanoma research, cancer immunotherapy, and mechanisms of immunotherapy resistance. During my Ph.D. research, I studied the role of chronic inflammation and cytokine IFN-gamma in adaptation and immunotherapy resistance in melanoma. By integrating high-throughput transcriptomic analyses and employing various cancer cell lines and animal models, I have developed methods to predict response to immunotherapy in melanoma patients. During my research, I have used the CRISPR/Cas9 system to knockout genes in human and mouse cell lines to assess the role of certain genes in immunotherapy resistance in melanoma.
Dr. Veronica Hughes
Veronica Hughes received her Ph.D. in medical science from the University of Florida. Her primary interest was cancer metastasis, dysregulation of the tumour microenvironment, and analysis of clinical trial design. Additionally, she engaged in the development of novel small animal models.
Dr. Matthias Schröder
Ph.D. in Immunology at the Division of Immunopharmacology of the University Clinic of Frankfurt am Main. Involved in basic and applied research for immunological interventions to treat cancer for 13 years. Matthias used a high-throughput CRISPR/Cas9 approach to generate a library of knockout cells that could be differentiated into immunosuppressive cells to investigate the potential loss of function situations. Currently involved in the development of fusion proteins to activate receptors of the TNF-superfamily (CD40, CD27, etc.) at a small German Biotech company as Head of Assay Development.

Usually, there are no general prerequisites when enrolling for any individual courses on cbehx.co.uk. However, some courses are certainly more advanced than others that are of introductory and intermediate level. For advanced-level courses, prior knowledge on the topic will be helpful for understanding complex concepts but not mandatory.
The relevant information about the suggested knowledge and background that might be helpful to follow each course is provided on the respective course registration page.
Yes, the courses are flexible and self-paced to suit your schedule. The term “self-paced” implies that the courses do not follow a pre-assigned schedule for learning within the course duration. You will be able to access all the course materials for each course that you have enrolled in as soon as the course begins.
The course completion certificate is CPD accredited. For more informations please visit https://cpduk.co.uk
