**About the research group**

The position is to join the Tumoral and Stromal Chemoresistance research group at IDIBELL. The student will be mentored by Dr. Juan Martín-Liberal and Dr. Lourdes Farré.

Our group addresses different aspects of resistance to therapy using advanced animal models (orthoxenografts) and 2D and 3D in vitro models. Orthoxenografts are experimental mouse models that reproduce the histological, genetic and molecular characteristics of the original primary tumour, representing an excellent scientific tool for predicting patient response to therapy treatment, and providing treatment alternatives based on scientific evidence. We have also developed the technology to humanize orthoxenografts to study resistance to immunotherapy. Our strategic reserach lines are:

- Study of the genetic and epigenetic mechanisms associated with the development of resistance to therapy in solid and hematologic tumor
- Study of the tumour stroma as a modulator of tumour growth and response to chemotherapy
- Preclinical evaluation of new drugs with therapeutic potential
- Modelling of hematological cancer using humanized mouse models
