Dr Girish K Patel is employed by Hywel Dda Health Board as a consultant Dermatologist and is also a NISCHR AHSC Clinical Research Fellow within the Health Board. The primary aim of his research as a NISCHR AHSC Clinical Research Fellow is to develop therapies that specifically target cancer stem cells for skin cancer, but also define mechanisms that may more broadly be applicable to all cancers. Secondary aims include: (1) Identifying the genetic signatures that drive both human SCC and BCC, so that prevention strategies can be developed that extend beyond sunscreen use and maybe personalised by identifying individual risk factors. (2) Defining the genetic basis for metastatic disease, by including metastatic SCC and BCC samples for sequencing, which can form the basis for the development of a prognostic tool. (3) Elucidating self-renewal pathways in skin cancer, since these will be up-regulated in cancer compared to normal tissues, which may be relevant for normal stem cell expansion in these tissues (normal skin and hair follicles).
