Further detail
The main aim of this lecture series is to provide all researchers with a strong background in cancer biology, ranging from basic biology through to translational aspects. The lectures will be given by senior members of the Cancer Research UK Cambridge Centre and invited speakers. Attendance is compulsory for all first year MRes and PhD students and clinical fellows funded by the CRUK Cambridge Centre. Other students and staff of the University of Cambridge are welcome to attend. The lectures are held every Thursday at 9.30 a.m. in-person in the School of Clinical Medicine – in either the Theo Chalmers or the William Harvey Lecture Theatre (check display boards in reception foyer). Unless otherwise stated, we are not currently live streaming the lectures online.
