To celebrate #WorldCancerResearchDay 2023, we wanted to share some photos from our Reverse Summer School which took place 18 - 22 September Makerere University University's Uganda Cancer Institute.

Staff from CRUK Cambridge Institute travelled to the UCI to share knowledge and deliver specialist training.

We have a new #vacancy for a #research #assistant to support the biological work of our diverse international team in striving to create new methods that can help us to detect cancer earlier. Take a look 👀 and please share. jobs.cam.ac.uk/job/42758/
