PhD project Avoiding research waste: addressing unit of analysis errors in trials and systematic reviews in Eyes and Vision - Clinicians and patients need access to up-to-date high quality research to make evidence-informed decisions about health care. Systematic reviews are a rigorous approach to identifying, appraising and synthesising the results of individual studies. Systematic review authors cannot always use all the data available in individual studies because of the way that studies are reported, including unit of analysis issues, leading to avoidable research waste. The aim of this proposal is to explore the nature and extent of unit of analysis errors in trials and systematic reviews in Eyes and Vision, investigate the impact on the results of systematic reviews and develop solutions and guidance for trialists and systematic review authors. This will be an important contribution to the quality of evidence in this field. Despite the fact that unit of analysis issues are widely acknowledged, an assessment of how common these concerns are in Eyes and Vision systematic reviews is lacking and few studies have been conducted in general. Thus, investigating the extent and the impact of errors concerning UAIs in trials and reviews is important to quantify the impact of this type of bias and minimise research waste. | School of Medicine, Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences | Centre for Public Health |

About the project: Trillions of bacteria comprise the gut microbiome and contribute to human health by producing metabolites that travel to distant tissues such as the liver or brain. Therefore, the microbiome represents an innovative approach to develop new therapies. Our team studies how bacterial competition for nutrients and space shapes the biodiversity of the gut. This is important because gut biodiversity is a determinant of human health. Moreover, a few key species can affect biodiversity, by direct competition with other bacteria.Like Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, most microbiome bacteria contribute to homeostasis and contribute to reduce inflammation in the gut, but a few species have strains associated to colorectal cancer and chronic inflammation. In some cases, when in competition, the commensal (beneficial) strains can kill and eradicate the cancer-associated strains. We will study the genes participating in this process using state-of-the-art techniques such as microbiome sequencing and CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing. Ultimately, the results of this research should contribute to the design of strategies to better use the microbiome to reduce digestive tract cancer burden, which in the UK represents ~40,000 new cases per year with an economic cost of £17.1 billion.The successful candidate will acquire training in cell biology, microbiology, genome editing and high-throughput sequencing. The project should provide experience to pursue industrial or academic R&D in the new field of microbiome therapeutic biologicals, synthetic biology or biotechnology. | School of Medicine, Dentistry and Biomedical Sciences | The Wellcome-Wolfson Institute For Experimental Medicine |
