Cancer remains one of the most challenging, complex diseases of our time. Whether it occurs in people or animals, its effects are life changing and life threatening, debilitating and devastating.
The past four decades of cancer research have established the basic biological principles that underpin cancer initiation, growth and spread throughout the body. However, translating this information into therapeutic and diagnostic advances remains challenging due to the extensive diversity of cancer types and patient populations.
Cancer specialists here in the Diagnostics and Therapeutics Research Group use the latest technological advances to explore the genetic and molecular defects that drive cancer. Our aim is to improve the ways we prevent, detect, diagnose and treat cancer, across species.
