What a pleasure to be supervisor for @NuckhirMia and a mightily successful PhD viva (and celebration) 🎉🍾🍾🍾
Congratulations Dr @NuckhirMia on successfully defending your PhD thesis Soluble factors in the lung microenvironment promote pro-metastatic behaviours of breast cancer🎉
Thanks to examiners @AMalliri & @eriksahailab & Mia's supervisors @RobClarkeLab Ciara O'Brien & @DrHHarrison
👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻Take a look at the Sky News interview with Susan Michaelis to find out more about why there needs to be more research into Lobular Breast Cancer, the second most common type. @MCRBreastCentre

Thanks @MomoBentires for the Happy Birthday wishes to @MCRBreastCentre and to Therese @thsorlie for designing a futuristic building for Manchester Breast Centre, too avant garde to be published here! 😁
It’s a brilliant day of talks and poster presentations so far!
It's time for the MBC Special Symposium, celebrating 20 years of the Manchester Breast Centre, from 2005 - 2024, to begin!
Welcome to everyone joining us today @MCRCnews
& thank you to our sponsors @BreastCancerNow, @AstraZeneca, @UoM_DCS, @abcam & Sarstedt.

Today, we proudly recognize Lobular Breast Cancer Awareness Day, which is the 2nd most common type of BC. ILC receives less than 1% of breast cancer research funding, and there is no targeted treatment. I'm really honored to be part of an amazing group of ILC researchers!

I’ve been enjoying the science at the BA-Breast Cancer Symposium in Argentina and the views at lunchtime are pretty awesome too. Uruguay just over the River Plate. 👀 🇦🇷 🇦🇷 🇦🇷
Enjoying very much of BABCS. An honor to host such an amazing faculty @RobClarkeLab @PedramRazaviMD @paolo_ceppi @AlanaWelm @p_syril @adrianadesiervi @dejuric @fwaisberg1 @ggabuin
This has been a great MBC Symposium. Excellent speakers and posters leading to thought-provoking discussions and networking to enhance future research collaboration. Patient advocates contributing with relevant and challenging questions. @MCRCnews @UoM_DCS @BreastCancerNow
So far today we've had fascinating talks from visiting speakers @andMORand, @SoniaCLluva and Ernestina de Francesco, and PhD students David Withey, @Eleanor_UoM & @mitochondear plus a brilliant poster session introduced with 1 minute lightning talks
