World-leading cancer researchers announce plans to create a new generation of treatments that target the ecosystems supporting cancer. Their new strategy sees cancer genetics and evolution within complex ecosystems as keys to creating new targeted drugs and immunotherapies. They aim to double survival for people with advanced cancer within a decade by combining existing treatments and using smart dosing strategies

Scientists have developed an artificial intelligence (AI) method that could unlock a research ‘treasure trove’ of cancer genomes from billions of preserved tissue samples stored routinely at hospitals over decades.

A new, free exhibition chronicling how science is transforming cancer care opens at the Science Museum in London today – featuring discoveries led by researchers at The Institute of Cancer Research, London.
