Professor Trevor Graham is Director of the Centre for Evolution and Cancer at the Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) in London, UK. His lab combines computational biology with molecular genomics to study cancer evolution. In 2022, he was elected as a fellow of the UK’s Academy of Medical Sciences for his contributions to cancer genomics.
Professor Trevor Graham's laboratory was the first mathematical theory-led laboratory in the Institute. He co-led the development of computational biology as core research theme at Barts, culminating in the establishment of the Centre for Genomics and Computational Biology in 2019, where Trevor was deputy lead.
Trevor’s research is focused on understanding the evolutionary dynamics of cancer development and translating this knowledge to improve clinical management of disease. His laboratory combines expertise in evolutionary theory, mathematical modelling and bioinformatics, together with cutting-edge wet-lab analyses foremost in genomics, single cell sequencing and molecular pathology.
