Series: Science Snaps

A new exhibition at the Cambridge Science Festival showcases artworks inspired by the work of Cancer Research UK scientists

We explore the fascinating story of how an anonymous letter sparked a new approach for researching cancer in the UK.

Our scientists have shown for the first time how lymph nodes swell during infection, producing some striking images along the way.

We explore some images and video from a new study revealing how groups of melanoma cells may work together to spread around the body.

With an image hot off the microscope, we look at how shape-shifting melanoma cells deploy different groups of enzymes to help them spread.

In the latest instalment of Science Snaps we explore some science illustration and research looking at targeted cancer treatments.

In the latest Science Snaps we explore how capturing microscopic images of fly eyes is helping our researchers pinpoint genetic changes linked to cancer.

In the latest edition of Science Snaps we explore the microscopic depths of the intestine and how images are helping research into bowel cancer.

Science Snaps returns with another amazing image from our researchers – in this post we take a closer look at the immune system and cancer.

We explore a microscopic world where stunning images of nerve cells are helping Cancer Research UK scientists learn more about cancer.
