Studying the tumour microenvironment

Studying the tumour microenvironment

Could the environment around a cancer tumour hold the key to better treatments? In this episode, PhD students Emily Lythgoe and Ellie Bunce from the University of Cambridge discuss their research into tumour microenvironments. They explain why studying these environments in ovarian cancer (in a clinical setting) and head and neck cancer (in a pre-clinical setting) is so important for predicting how tumours might respond to treatment. They also highlight the value of integrating multiple technologies to create a more complete picture of a patient and their disease. This insightful conversation explores how their work helps to understand the building blocks of these cancers and why such complex research could be crucial for developing new ways to treat patients in the future.
