Don’t discard the ultrasonic aspirate from brain tumor surgeries!
In our latest paper we describe the rich source it offers for isolating immune cell populations from glioblastoma tissue.
Great work by former PhD students Effie Stavrakaki and Zineb Belcaid.

We are delighted to hear this update on Prof Scolyer's progress. A good news story in a field that can be very tough. More stratified clinical trials are needed to test immunotherapy options in glioblastoma. We hope to contribute to the growing pool of data that will support such trials🙏
The scientist who tested his revolutionary medicine on his own brain cancer: ‘It seemed worth it to give it a crack’
Richard Scolyer was one of the world’s leading melanoma researchers when he was struck with a brain tumour. Facing likely death, his team made him a guinea pig for his own medicine
