Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal has officially opened the Centre for Cancer Drug Discovery and toured the centre to learn more about its work to overcome cancer’s ability to evolve and become resistant to treatment.

The ICR and Royal Philharmonic Orchestra complete the ‘unfinished symphony’ – to mark the opening of a revolutionary new research centre and a new era for cancer treatment.

A world-first new centre aiming to overcome cancer’s ability to evolve and become resistant to once effective treatments has opened its doors to researchers. Scientists at the new Centre for Cancer Drug Discovery hope their approaches will mean long-term control of cancer, as well as cures.
