Professor Christine Holt from PDN Cambridge and Gonville & Caius College explains just how neurons in the brain know where to go in this fascinating time-lapse film 🐸 Tap to read about her incredible discoveries, and the impact they have on our health and treatment of disease 👇

The Philpott Lab Cambridge Stem Cell Institute chairs the next session highlighting research excellence from across the north of the UK. Research putting discovery at the heart to improve outcomes. From developmental biology to making it personal and using genetics to drive innovation #CYPConf23

Thank you to Cancer Research UK for giving me the opportunity to speak about our work on neuroblastoma differentiation at #CYPConf23 - I had a great time meeting others in Children and Young People's cancer community :)

Prepare to be inspired! ⭐ Our researchers, students and staff are at the heart of our academic excellence and together we are making a real impact in the world. This is the School of Biological Sciences:

An important day of science and discussions focussing on the Fundamental Biology of Cancer. We’re delighted to be working with the CRUK Cambridge Centre, creating more opportunities for collaboration and engagement between researchers, clinicians and patient representatives.

Today is International Childhood Cancer Day. Childhood #cancer impacts millions of children (0-19 years) worldwide, but it is not the same as adult cancer. Find out how genetic factors, access to care & social support play a role in cancer outcomes bit.ly/2NeFF8B

Today is #InternationalChildhoodCancerDay. Fittingly, yesterday we had the pleasure of meeting Lucy Jones, CEO of Neuroblastoma Au, for a visit to The Philpott Lab Cambridge Stem Cell Institute. (1/2)

We are delighted that our 6th Neuroblastoma Research Symposium starts today, bringing together experts in the field of neuroblastoma research, including researchers, clinicians and charity representatives from across the world. #NBUKSymposium @CRUKCamPaeds CRUK Cambridge Centre

Prof Philpott asks whether additional differentiation therapy could help prevent relapse, or even treat early signs of relapse detected by liquid biopsy? Research in neuroblastoma generates so many hypotheses, hardest part is bringing any of it to clinic to help treat children!🎗️

All set to start Day Two at #NBUKSymposium. On the agenda this morning: discussions and presentations around Preclinical Evaluation Of Immunotherapies... @CRUKCamPaeds CRUK Cambridge Centre

Prof. Anna Philpott tells #NBUKSymposium how she is forever grateful for a Neuroblastoma UK Grant which she received early in her career, enabling her to research frogs @CRUKCamPaeds CRUK Cambridge Centre

Join us for the Children’s Cancer Research Open Day on the Cambridge Biomedical Campus: Friday 26 April, 10am-2pm, Jeffrey Cheah Biomedical Centre. Our members Cambridge Stem Cell Institute will be giving tours where you can see the lab & hear about our research on neuroblastoma! Book: orlo.uk/gjfWy
