Designing a safer way to find and fight acute myeloid leukaemia cells in children
Investigating a protein found on leukaemia stem cells, the cells which cause relapse, and whether it could be a good drug target.
We have been funding expert research since 2016, aiming to ensure that every child and young person has a safe and effective treatment for their cancer, and that they can live long and happy lives post-treatment.
