Delighted to share that our work “Uridine Phosphorylase-1 supports metastasis by altering immune & extracellular matrix landscapes” was published today in @emboreports, describing how #neutrophil #metabolism influences niche priming & #metastasis (1/14) embopress.org/doi/full/10.10…
🎧 New podcast episode! Listen to 'Ask me anything about... the science of cancer-associated cachexia' ➡️️ zurl.co/lDcME Experts from the Cancer Cachexia Action Network unpack the topic with our @CRUKCamPancCan. @CUH_NHS @Cambridge_Uni @CRUK_SI @CSHL
If you’re interested in stereotactic ablative radiotherapy for #hepatocellularcarinoma check out our latest publication in @DMM_Journal. My first publication in the radiation field with my independent funding from @RadNetCRUKGla. Thank you to all my co-authors and mentors ❤️
May, Bird and colleagues set out to establish a mouse model 🐭 of #hepatocellularcarcinoma, where tumours can be clearly distinguished from the surrounding tissue to enable image-guided treatment with stereotactic ablative radiotherapy. doi.org/10.1242/dmm.05… #EditorsChoice
