Does liver cancer have an Achilles heel?
Funded by WCRF International, we’re exploring the progression from chronic liver damage caused by diet to the development of cancer
Can rehabilitation after bone marrow transplants improve patient outcomes?
We’re funding a new research project to test if providing a rehabilitation programme for people after a bone marrow transplant improves outcomes for blood cancer patients
How does physical activity lower the risk of cancer?
This research, funded by WCRF International, looks at how our genetics affect immunity, hormones and metabolism, and how these affect activity

High soy intake in early-life linked to lower breast density
New findings suggest that soy consumption during childhood and adolescence is associated with lower breast density in adulthood, a predictor of lower breast cancer risk.
Staying active after cancer: why the first year may need more support
New research involved participants wearing an activity monitor to provide a picture of movement, sitting and sleep across everyday life.
Are colon cancer subtypes linked to a greater risk of recurrence – and could diet be relevant?
A particular colon cancer subtype, imCMS4, was linked to the highest risk of recurrence, and a more ‘pro-inflammatory’ diet was associated with greater recurrence risk in this same subgroup.
