Oxford cancer researchers are rapidly translating scientific discovery into better outcomes for patients . Hear from our Directors @tim_tje & Mark Middleton about what Oxford cancer research is all about and what makes @UniofOxford & @OUH_Research the place for medical innovation

RT @BBCr4today: "We now know that cancer does not come from nowhere.". Prof Sarah Blagden, director of a new research collaboration betwee….

'This partnership represents a step forward in cancer research.'. Professor Irene Tracey comments on the launch of a new £50million immuno-prevention collaboration between @UniofOxford and @GSK to advance novel cancer research. 👇.

Wrapping up the event, OxCODE Associate Director @leedham_simon summarises OxCODE’s history and achievements. Thanks to our sponsors @moderna_tx and Veritie Diagnostics and all participants and attendees for a stimulating conference celebrating our 5 year anniversary!. #oxcode24

We are privileged to have @GeorgiaBBlack @QMUL_WIPH give the final keynote of the OxCODE symposium on the organisation of non-specific symptom cancer pathways. #oxcode24

In our last session, we hear about diagnosing cancers with non-specific symptoms in @OUHospitals SCAN (Fergus Gleeson @OxfordOncology & Claire Friedemann Smith @OxPrimaryCare) and barriers to research participation (Julie-Ann Moreland @OUHospitals & Aduke Onofowokan). #oxcode24

How to get your research funded? We heard insights from our panel:. Talisia Quallo @CRUKResearch.Florence Theberge @The_MRC.Janette Rawlinson @OxfordCancer PPI.@FrancoiseSHowe #oxcode. Chaired by @sarah_blagden. #oxcode24

Last before lunch, we hear lightning talks from. James Chettle @OxfordOncology. @NatalieJooss @MRC_WIMM. #oxcode24

Switching gears to risk stratification, we hear from Ling Yang @Oxford_NDPH on chronic pathogen infections and the risk of cancer and Andres Tamm @OxPrimaryCare on FIT for colorectal cancer risk stratification. #oxcode24

We warmly welcome our keynote speaker in the early cancer biology session, Sam Janes @lungsforliving @DoM_UCL, who gave a fascinating summary of his research on pre-invasive lung cancer progression. #oxcode24

Day 2 of the OxCODE symposium begins with the early cancer biology session featuring:. Asger Jacobsen @MRC_WIMM on pre-leukaemic clonal selection. @leedham_simon @HumanGeneticsOx on spatial biology to understand colorectal cancer development. #oxcode24

Welcome back to the Oxford Centre for Cancer Early Detection and Prevention (OxCODE) symposium!.Today we will hear the latest on early cancer biology, risk, diagnosing cancer with non-specific symptoms and a panel discussion on getting research funded. Stay tuned!. #oxcode24.

OxCODE Associate Director @sarah_blagden closes the first day and encourages further conversations over networking drinks. Thanks to our sponsors @moderna_tx and Veritie Diagnostics. #oxcode24

In our final talk of day 1, we are honoured to hear from keynote Dame Molly Stevens @KavliOxford, who discusses an impressive array of new bioengineering approaches to treat and detect cancer. #oxcode24

In our early detection technologies session, Fergus Gleeson shares the outputs from @dartlunghealth in lung cancer screening and @mikepavlides_1 @RDMOxford describes a liver MRI project building on @DeLIVER_HCC. #oxcode24

We hear from two recently funded @CRUKResearch preventive cancer vaccine projects:. Nancy Zaarour @oxfordahmedlab @Ox_wrh on OvarianVax.David Church @HumanGeneticsOx on LynchVax. #oxcode24

Kicking off our session on preventive cancer vaccines, Catriona Gilmour Hamilton @OxfordCancer and PPI rep @anna_fry share the lessons learned so far from PPI consultations on the research to use vaccines to prevent cancer. #oxcode24

Last before lunch, we hear lightning talks from:. @LucyDenly @Ludwig_Cancer.@DVVavoulis @OxfordOncology.Yi-Jhih Huang @OxfordOncology.@lucygoudswaard @BristolCancer. Learn more about their research at the poster session over lunch!. #oxcode24

Next is a panel discussion on translating research for patient benefit, featuring:.Hazel Beaver @OxfordCancer PPI.Claire Brown @OxfordSciEnt.@annadowrick @oxprimarycare.@velculescu @hopkinskimmel. Chaired by @EleanorBarnesOx. #oxcode24

Continuing with tech:. @McCullaghGroup @OxfordChemistry discusses metabolomics for early detection. @sarah_blagden @OxfordOncology & Eleni Adamopoulou @NDMOxford describe their use of immunopeptidomics to discover vaccine targets to prevent BRCA-associated cancers. #oxcode24

We are delighted to host Victor Velculescu @velculescu @hopkinskimmel as our first keynote speaker at the OxCODE Symposium. Victor shared his work on cell-free DNA fragmentomics for early detection of a variety of cancers. #oxcode24
