Research projects

This project hopes to discover how to cut of cancer’s energy supply so it can’t spread, making it easier to treat and improving  outcomes for patients.

Radiotherapy doesn’t work for all cancer patients so this project hopes to kickstart a new drug that could work in combination to improve patient outcomes.

This project hopes to find vital clues towards much needed new cures for pancreatic cancer by finding out more about the communication within cancer cells.

Sometimes cancer treatment stops working if cancers become resistant to therapy so this team hope to improve survival rates by exploring potential new drugs.

Stopping cancer spreading makes it easier to treat, so this project hopes to discover the processes involved in cancer spreading and find clues for new cures.

Researchers hope to better understand the communication inside cancer cells to make discoveries that can pave the way for new cures in a variety of cancer types.

Researchers hope to discover how to treat leukaemia that has returned after therapy by better understanding the mechanism that causes cancer to come back. 

Researchers believe that trying different combinations of treatments has potential to greatly improve the outcome for patients with a wide variety of cancers.

By discovering more about how and why cancer develops this research team hope to find new ways to prevent, diagnose and treat cancer in the future.
