Developing a new way to study the spread of neuroblastoma
New research published in the journal Cancer Research, with funding from Neuroblastoma UK, Cancer Research UK and Children with Cancer UK has helped create a new mouse model to help study neuroblastoma, a rare and aggressive childhood cancer.
Using 3D printing to study neuroblastoma
We are providing funding of over £116,000 to Dr Olga Piskareva and her team at the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland (RCSI).
In this project, Dr Piskareva aims to use 3D printing technology to engineer a novel experimental model and study the biology, and subsequent treatment of, neuroblastoma. “Thanks to funding from Neuroblastoma UK and its dedicated supporters...we hope to develop more effective treatments for children with neuroblastoma, with more tolerable side-effects.”
