Next step is translational analysis of serial tumour samples to understand 1. Why tumours respond more or less than others 2. how RT/anti-PDL1 impacts the TME and response evolution. 👀Watch this space @nigeljamieson @JoanneE59669325 @owen_sansom @AcrCelerate @CRUK_SI

The National Bowel Cancer Audit highlights the need for a continued focus on early diagnosis 📢 We’ve highlighted the key findings from this audit. Whilst this report shows a number of small improvements in #BowelCancer care across England and Wales, it's sadly not enough.
