Research projects

This project is hoping to find smarter and kinder ways to treat breast cancer by destroying cancer cells in a  different way from other cancer treatments.

This project hopes to better understand the mechanisms that help glioblastoma spread so commonly and so hard to treat, to discover vital new cures. 

Chemotherapy can sometimes stop working, so this project is hoping to better understand why and find ways to give more, better options to cancer patients.

Since breast cancer is one of the most common cancers, researchers are hoping to find vital treatments by targeting a type of cell involved in cancer growth. 

Melanoma is an aggressive type of skin cancer which can be hard to treat so this project is looking to kick-start a game-changing vaccine which could be a new type of cure. 

Researchers hope to reveal ways to diagnose oesophageal cancer sooner and help treatments work better by better understanding the earliest stages of the disease.

Infant leukaemia is very difficult to treat so researchers are hoping to better understand its unique biology to reveal vital better and kinder treatments.
