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 Cambridge University Department of Oncology, Cambridge Research Institute (CRI) and the Hutchison/MRC Research Centre.
Attendance is compulsory for all first year PhD students and clinical fellows in the Department of Oncology and CRI. Other students and staff of the University of Cambridge, Cancer Research UK and Addenbrooke's Hospital are welcome to attend.
The lectures are currently held every Thursday at 9.30 a.m. in the lecture theatre at the CRI.
