Planned workshops include one led by our Director, Sara Wells, and one led by the MRC MitoCluster:

🚨 Announcing the speakers for our #ExploringCYPCancers webinar on therapeutic discovery research. ⭐ Sara Wakeling (Alice's Arc) ⭐ Yael Mossé (Children's Hospital) ⭐ Charles Keller (cc-TDI) ⭐ Laura Donovan (UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health) Join us on 25 Nov 👉 bit.ly/4gZmzAK




For our final keynote talk of #LASA2024 we have Karen Blyth of Cancer Research UK CRUK Scotland Inst talking to us about translational cancer research and the impact of animal studies



A key part of our mission is to train #ECRs to carry out their in vivo work in the most scientifically rigorous way. With that in mind, we recently held a week-long bootcamp at Mary Lyon Centre at MRC Harwell focused on the use of mouse models to study human disease: nmgn.mrc.ukri.org/news/our-missi…


Massive congrats to ShaniaMarieCorry (alongside Svetlana Sakhnevych Noha Ehssan Mohamed) identifying the mechanistic and phenotype cascades underpinning the anti-metastatic response triggered by viral mimicry TLDR; CMS4 tumours can become CMS1-like! biorxiv.org/content/10.110… thread 👇


CRUK Scotland Inst is organising Colorectal Cancer Theme Day 2025! Grab your tickets before 24thJan'25 to secure your place. This is a Great opportunity to Network & Learn.


We are recruiting for a Senior Scientific Officer to work with Nalle Pentinmikko in Owen Sansom 🏳️🌈's lab investigating cell interactions during tumour initiation and regeneration 📅Closing date: 31 January 2025 🔗Find out more and apply here: crukscotlandinstitute.ac.uk/careers/scient…


Wait, it's an ecosystem⁉️🧐🌍 Simon Leedham of University of Oxford delivered his keynote speech on the manipulation of the neoplastic stem cell niche. He proposes we develop a holistic approach to ectopic stem cells behaviour! #BowelCancer #ColorectalCancer #Research #CRCThemeDay2025


🚨Subgroups left us speechless 🤯 Natalie Fisher of Queen's University Belfast 🎓 gave a fascinating talk on distinct transcriptional and phenotypic states within colorectal polyps! #BowelCancer #ColorectalCancer #Research #CRCThemeDay2025


Extremely proud of how the team (Lauren E, Atharv kapoor & Shannen Leroi) showcased ongoing work in our lab at tonight’s CRUK’s Scottish Parliamentary Reception! We feel privileged to have been part of this event! Scottish Parliament UofG Cancer Sciences CRUK Scotland Inst

Next up another selected abstract from Dr Nuray Gündüz at the Owen Sansom 🏳️🌈 group at CRUK Scotland Inst presenting her research on LGR4 maintenance of intestinal homeostasis and protection from mutant-cell clonal expansion. #WNTUK2025




Sunshine and science in Glasgow today at the CRC-STARS kick off meeting in CRUK Scotland Inst Excellent presention from Raheleh Amirkhah charting phenotypic evolution during cancer development and progression, and how best we can use preclinical models of cancer to improve patient outcomes
