Course summary

Overview

Cancer medicine research is aimed at developing discoveries that can ultimately be translated into patient benefits.

Fundamental research into the mechanisms leading to cancer development and progression with the aim of understanding the processes that lead to cancer development and which constitute potential therapeutic targets. This is achieved by translational research taking advantage of new and on-going clinical trials in cancer that combines existing therapies with novel approaches and uses predictive and prognostic biomarkers.

Scientific research is performed in an environment that has a wealth of clinical expertise and research which ensures that basic scientific research is always performed with insights of relevance to patients provided by leading clinical teams and an awareness of detailed clinical issues.
