A new study from Dr Konstantinos Tzelepis at the Cambridge Stem Cell Institute has discovered a new way to detect and target Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML), a fast growing, aggressive, blood cancer that requires urgent treatment. The research was published today (23 April) in Nature Biotechnology. AML is the second most...

Researchers have explored the evolution of the genetic change that causes chronic myeloid leukaemia and show its ability to drive the disease. A new study has unveiled when chronic myeloid leukaemia, a type of cancer that affects the blood and bone marrow, arises in life and how fast it grows. Researchers reveal explosive...

Research has uncovered fundamental differences in how blood stem cells evolve with age in mice compared to humans, reshaping our understanding of ageing and disease. The way in which blood stem cells evolve over a lifespan differs greatly between humans and mice, new research reveals. The findings provide a new...
