Multi-cancer tests could signal to your GP if vague early-stage symptoms could be caused by cancer, potentially leading to earlier diagnosis when treatment is more likely to be successful.

Cancer Immunology Lecture: A deep dive into cancer vaccines
This year's Cancer Immunology lecture took place on Monday 27 January 2025. Hosted by Mark Cragg, Professor of Experimental Cancer Biology and Professor Mark Spearing, the event focused on world-leading Cancer Immunology research at the University of Southampton. Also joining the event was Professor Gareth Griffiths, Director of Southampton Clinical Trials Unit, and Esme Fowkes, a Postgraduate Researcher in Cancer Sciences. None of the fantastic work at the Centre for Cancer Immunology would be possible without the generosity of our donors. If you were inspired by our fantastic speakers, please consider making a donation today to support our life-saving immunology research. To donate to the Cancer Immunology Fund, please visit: www.southampton.ac.uk/donate.
