Congratulations all. Grateful to have the opportunity to be involved in this fantastic piece of science
Ecstatic that our latest work has been published @stemcellreports @CellPressNews
We show how deregulation of blood stem cells #genomicinstability leads to pre-leukaemia development using #Gata2deficiency as a model:

New cancer therapeutic originally developed with DCG’s @virustinkerer lab headed by @alanlparker set to enter the clinic after clinical trial application submitted to MHRA @theWCRC @cardiffuni
Delighted to report Accession Therapeutics have submitted a clinical trial application and expect first patient to be treated with Trocept-01 in 2024. The underlying technology was developing @virustinkerer lab @cardiffuni. Amazing progress.

So grateful to @bloodcancer_uk for funding research in #AML @haematology_CU. Without the fundraising and support from patients and family we would not be making the good progress we have seen in the last decade to #beatbloodcancer. @DCGResearch @CUBLSResearch @cardiffuni
