Research projects

This project hopes to discover more about the biology of how solid tumours develop to find new ways to prevent, diagnose or treat these cancers.

Researchers hope to find new ways to stop cancer by better understanding how the ‘tumour microenvironment’ around cancers impacts their ability to spread. 

Researchers hope to find new ways predict and stop cancers becoming life-threatening by understanding how a very common cancer mutation helps cancers spread.
