In addition to our funding of work by Professor John Masters (see Tigers and Pussycats story) Prostate Research Campaign UK last October awarded substantial sums to Dr Moray Campbell at the University of Birmingham for his work on the Dysregulation of Vitamin D3 signalling by histone deacetylation in prostate cancer and to Dr Jane Melia and Dr Connie Parkinson for investigating observer variability in the pathological grading of prostate cancer at the Institute of Cancer Research.
Also funded by us will be work by Dr Andrew Baranowski on prostatitis and chronic pelvic pain syndrome - a rather neglected subject - that will be centred on the National Hospital at London's Queen Square.
