One in Two

In this episode we speak to Professor Sarah Cartmell on her work in bioengineering and ex-vivo modelling which involves studying cancer cells outside of an organism. Specifically, we talk about her team's work developing these models that can analyse, in three dimensions, how non-cancerous lung cancer cells develop into tumours and what the findings from this work could mean for improving patient outcomes.   Sarah Cartmell research profile: https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/sarah.cartmell.html Sarah Cartmell wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarah_Cartmell Retendon home page: https://retendon.com Manchester Cancer Research Centre: https://www.mcrc.manchester.ac.uk Professor Angeliki Malliri research profile: https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/en/researchers/angeliki-malliri(ef02a673-73ab-4434-8e1f-c18400019490).html Dr Andrew Gilmore research profile: https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/andrew.gilmore.html Dr Sean Knight research profile: https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/sean.knight.html Dr Kate Finegan research profile: https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/k.g.finegan.html Miss Emmanouela Mitta research profile: https://www.research.manchester.ac.uk/portal/emmanouela.mitta.html

What is One in Two?

With one in two of us receiving a cancer diagnosis at some point during our lives, it has never been more important to improve the outcomes for people affected by cancer.

This cancer research podcast is brought to you by The University of Manchester in partnership with the Manchester Cancer Research Centre (MCRC). In each episode, our cancer researchers discuss the innovations, discoveries and projects that are changing the landscape of early detection.
