September 1st marks the beginning of #ChildhoodCancerAwarenessMonth A month of reflection & the opportunity to acknowledge children as well as their families who are dealing with a cancer diagnosis. A month to highlight the importance of #research and raising awareness. 🎗🎗🎗

#InternationalChildhoodCancerDay nature.com/articles/s4159… Research by Dr Andrew Peet and CCLG Chairman and collaborators show metabolic profiles can be used to build accurate diagnostic classifiers for a different cerebellar tumours such as #Medulloblastoma, #Astrocytoma & #ATRT

#InternationalChildhoodCancerDay doi.org/10.1016/S1470-… Work on #Medulloblastoma samples from the Tissue Bank by Steve Clifford led to the discovery of seven novel, clinically significant subgroups which could help risk-stratification and inform treatment decisions.

#InternationalChildhoodCancerDay link.springer.com/article/10.100… Work by Prof Tom Jacques et al. RNA expression and DNA methylation profiles led to the identification of two distinct groups of glioneuronal tumour. This work may help improve the accuracy of diagnosis of future patients

🩺 The 2021 CCLG Winter Meeting starts today, bringing together our professional members, the experts in childhood cancer. 💻 The three day event is taking place virtually and we are excited to welcome over 350 attendees this year 👉 Find out more at cclg.uk/3tYAezv

Great to see this paper published, describing the origins of MRT, a rare childhood cancer with a poor outcome - research made possible by CCLG Tissue Bank ⬇️

Happy #IWD2021  to the many inspiring women who work with the Tissue Bank - clinical, researcher, PPI or any one of the other allied groups we work alongside. Never stop being amazing and keep doing awesome things for this world.

Please share! A colleague of ours at the Great North Children’s Hospital is interested in finding out what young people think about biobanking. If you would like to share your experiences & opinions on donating samples to research. Scan the QR code below & complete their short questionnaire!

Productive meeting last night talking with our PPI group. We spoke about how we can build on the work of the past year, develop this group further, including more TYA voices and be able to build more patient/public involvement in both the work of the Tissue Bank and @cclg_uk.

🚨New publication alert🚨

Another publication from Prof Clifford with help from the Tissue Bank

Today on #InternationalNursesDay2021 we thank all the amazing nurses at our tissue banking centres. Without your hard work & dedication, we wouldn’t be able to provide samples and support the research that we do. Thank you from our deepest hearts. You’re all superstars. 🌟

Today is #DIPGAwarenessDay. Diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma or DIPG is an aggressive brain tumour, most often occurring in children. It is sadly 100% fatal😢 Access to patient samples is vital for progress to be made in understanding and treating this devastating disease. 💔

🚨New publication alert🚨 ascopubs.org/doi/full/10.12… Genetic alterations of ALK in High Risk #Neuroblastoma are independent predictors of poorer survival. Findings provide a rationale for the integration of ALK inhibitors in upfront treatment of High Risk-NBL with ALK alterations

A new article about the most recent publication on the role of ALK in #neuroblastoma including no other than the Director of the Tissue Bank Prof. Deb Tweddle an Honorary Consultant in Paediatric and Adolescent Oncology up here in Newcastle. newcastle-hospitals.nhs.uk/news/targeted-…

Today is #BiomedicalScienceDay2021. Many of our samples are handled and processed by the amazing biomedical scientist community across our hospital network. We couldn’t support research into #ChildrenAndYoungPeoplesCancer without their hard work and input.

🚨New publication alert🚨 Using lymphoma samples from patients who consented for their samples to be donated to the CCLG Tissue Bank for research.
