Cancer Research at Warwick - Open Evening as part of Science on the Hill

Mon, 03 Nov 2025 11:25:13 GMT

Hear how mathematicians, statisticians, and computer scientists improve diagnosis and our understanding of cancer, how chemists take inspiration from fungi and bacteria to develop new anti-cancer drugs or design delivery vehicles that target immune cells, and physicists employ diamonds to look skin deep for cancer cells.

Whether you're curious about the equations that can guide diagnosis and improve therapy decisions or how magnets can help surgeons find cancer cells, this evening promises to inform and inspire.

Warwick Cancer Centre Invited Lecture: Prof Peter Lay, University of Syndey

Fri, 07 Jun 2024 09:00:00 GMT

Prof Peter Lay gave an invited seminar at the Cancer Research Centre on 6 June 2024 on factors important in changing phenotype and how cancer cells send and receive message to change cell phenotypes of other cancer cells and non-cancer cells that can lead to tissue wasting. He discussed the roles of metal based drugs, Pt, Ru, Ga, In, on different cancer phenotypes and potential immunogenic responses, including the ability of certain drugs to convert aggressive metastatic phenotypes to non-aggressive phenotypes through irreversible dedifferentiation prior to exerting a cytotoxic effect, which then has the potential to improve drug treatment. Examples of these effects were given for triple negative breast cancer cells, ovarian cancer cells and also the potential for biospectroscopies for rapid phenotyping of cancers for personalised treatments.
