"We really need to know if this new technique can help reduce damage to the healthy brain tissue that surrounds a tumour, so that fewer patients have their lives affected by cognitive problems that can have a huge impact on daily life." - Dr Louise Murray

We are excited to be working closely with the proton centre at UCLH to provide proton beam therapy to participants across the UK 😀
