We aim to understand how the supporting stroma of the tumour micro environment regulates immune activity from early stages of disease to promote carcinogenesis.

What an absolutely fantabulous day of talks at @TheBACR Tumour Microenvironment and 3D modelling meeting in Nottingham.

Cool!
Endothelial antigen presentation is not made for T cell trafficking... very happy to finally share this study with all of you - nature.com/articles/s41467-0…

Who and what is transported from tumours to lymph nodes, and how does it impact tumour immunity? Can we use lymphatic cargo to identify breast cancer earlier and predict disease progression? Just one day left to apply for this exciting project and find out.
Applications now open! Join us @KCLcancer_pharm and be part of an exciting @CRUKresearch funded project to identify if we can exploit the lymphatic system for cancer #EarlyDetection and better predict patient outcomes jobs.kcl.ac.uk/gb/en/job/064…

Happy we could play a small role in this fab story out in @CD_AACR. Check out @doctor_kno’s tweetorial!
We are excited to share our new paper published in @CD_AACR about the molecular similarity between pre-cancerous Barrett's esophagus (BE) and Gastric Intestinal Metaplasia (IM). @RFitzgerald_lab @nygenome @Cancer_dynamics @EarlyCancerCam aacrjournals.org/cancerdisco…

Just one week left to apply for our exciting project investigating the potential of localized magnetic thermal therapy to reprogram the tumour immune microenvironment. Come join us!

Thanks to @CRUKresearch support we can get cracking on answering this! We will be recruiting imminently, so please keep an eye out if #lymphatics and #EarlyDetection are your thing
Replying to @CRUKresearch
Is it possible to exploit the lymphatic system for cancer #EarlyDetection? This is what @Toastyjac (@KingsCollegeLon) will study, to build a better understanding of #BreastCancer progression & identify early drivers of cancer spread to better predict patient outcomes [2/4]

Does ECM composition determine immune cell phenotype? Yes! In our new work on #ECM #immunity, we found tumour ECM induces a population of TAMs found in ovarian cancer with tissue remodelling and immunoregulatory properties. biorxiv.org/cgi/content/shor…
