Paula Ghaneh

Professor Paula Ghaneh is a leading researcher in pancreatic cancer clinical trials and molecular oncology. She has secured multiple grants from Cancer Research UK, Royal College of Surgeons of England, and the Department of Health & Social Care for studies on chemotherapy optimization, gene therapy vectors, and tumor microenvironment dynamics. Her work spans translational research, clinical trial design, and proteomics-based biomarker discovery.

• Key research themes: Pancreatic cancer treatment, chemotherapy resistance, tumor microenvironment, and clinical trial methodology

Her recent publications focus on metastatic mechanisms, drug resistance pathways, and personalized treatment strategies within the ESPAC trial framework. Scientific contributions include:

• ESPAC-5F and ESPAC-4T clinical trial leadership
• Lentiviral vector evaluations for gene therapy
• Pancreatic cancer proteomics research

Professor Ghaneh also contributes to cancer education through modules like "Cancer Clinical Trials" (LIFE726) and "Molecular, Clinical and Translational Cancer" (LIFE373).
