Episode description

One in two people will develop some form of cancer in their lifetimes. Despite decades of work, one-sixth of worldwide deaths are due to cancer. High-stakes research underpinned by strong alliances are making possible new therapies, bringing new hope.

 
In this podcast, Julie Little (Associate Director of Strategic Alliances) and Steve Wedge (Chief Scientific Officer) of Cancer Research UK discuss their organisation’s major role de-risking oncology research. CRUK has catalysed collaborations including biotech startups and big pharmaceutical companies alike. The newly formed Cancer Research Horizons will supercharge that mission.

BTD’s Nick Palmer leads the discussion. Learn more. Give it a listen.
