Tanya Soliman

Tanya Soliman is a Senior Lecturer and Group Leader whose research bridges fundamental kinase biology and novel personalised oncology strategies. Her affiliations include the Centre for Cancer Evolution, focusing on understanding kinase substrate specificity and pathological signaling in cancer.

Research Interests:

• Kinase biology and substrate specificity
• Cancer cell signaling and mitotic regulation
• Proteomics for therapeutic target discovery
• Personalised oncology approaches
• Cancer evolution mechanisms

Publications Trends: Her work centers on kinases like Aurora B and PKCε in mitotic processes, DNA damage response, and cancer vulnerabilities. Studies explore their roles in cell cycle regulation, spindle assembly, and checkpoint resolution across high-impact journals.
