Overview

This event is part of a series of lightning lectures for the Royal Society’s 2021 Summer Science digital showcase.

Tumours are not just solid lumps but are made up of many different cell types and components.

Join researcher Dr Joanna Kelly to find out more about these ‘tumour landscapes’ and why understanding the details of their composition could be the key to developing the cancer treatments of the future.
