Tumour ecology and evolution
Research in the CRUK Cambridge Institute focuses primarily on tumour ecology and evolution, with investigations across four main areas:
- Basic research into the cellular and molecular biology of cancer.
- Research in molecular imaging, genomics, bioinformatics and computational biology.
- Research focused on specific cancers, which form a link between laboratory and clinic.
- Clinical investigations including experimental medicine clinical trials and, in the longer term, population-based studies in screening and prevention.
