Dr Michaela Frye and Dr Feride Oeztuerk-Winder are using 3D techniques to create accurate in vitro culturing models of human lung. Up until now we've only been able to study the lung and lung cancer in 2D, so the extra understanding of how the lung works in 3D, and what happens when lung cancer is introduced, could have a massive impact on future treatments. In order to make this project happen we are crowdfunding.
