MPhil Cancer

The NICR incorporates the Newcastle Cancer Centre. This is a unique collaboration between Cancer Research UK and the North of England Children's Cancer Research Fund.

Work covers a broad spectrum:

• understanding the biological differences between normal and malignant cells
• understanding the molecular differences between normal and malignant cells
• using this knowledge to develop new anti-cancer drugs

We're a major training base for the next generation of cancer researchers. Our Institute covers many areas of cancer research, including:

• solid tumours and leukaemias
• childhood and adult cancers
• drug discovery and early phase clinical trials
