We aim to understand how the supporting stroma of the tumour micro environment regulates immune activity from early stages of disease to promote carcinogenesis.

Who and what is transported from tumours to lymph nodes, and how does it impact tumour immunity? Can we use lymphatic cargo to identify breast cancer earlier and predict disease progression? Just one day left to apply for this exciting project and find out.

Is it possible to exploit the lymphatic system for cancer #EarlyDetection? This is what @Toastyjac (@KingsCollegeLon) will study, to build a better understanding of #BreastCancer progression & identify early drivers of cancer spread to better predict patient outcomes [2/4]

Does ECM composition determine immune cell phenotype? Yes! In our new work on #ECM #immunity, we found tumour ECM induces a population of TAMs found in ovarian cancer with tissue remodelling and immunoregulatory properties.ย  https://t.co/UqRO55b0Xq
