My group works on understanding the role of acetylation in disease using our small molecule lysine acetylation inhibitor (KATi), and identifying new cancer biomarkers.

In a recent article with The Conversation, Dr @dr-jamesbrown.bsky.social , member of the LDCRC leadership team, shares how patient voices challenge researchers to think differently and ensure real-world impact through PPI Limerick Cancer Research.

I would think that more effective treatments (used on groups of patients that have been profiled to know it will work on them, or used in improved settings like neoadjuvant) will ultimately create long-term savings and improve cost-effectiveness- but we need more studies to confirm.

Thank you, it really highlights that not only is neoadjuvant treatment clinically effective, it is also increasingly cost effective. It also highlights the growing cost of treating older patients, an important consideration for healthcare systems with (worldwide) aging populations.

If you're attending #biologists100 visit our exhibition stand & chat to our PhD reps @harrietasmith.bsky.social @emilyxlucas.bsky.social

They're looking for volunteers to film a 60 sec video discussing your work or poster

You'll get one of our lovely BSCB mugs!
