Type: Leukaemia
Genetically modified immune cells can be used to cure cases of leukaemia that are otherwise incurable. This project will optimise the technology to create cures for other types of cancer.
The aim of this 5 year program is to increase survival rates of children with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) and ultimately develop prevention strategies.
Professor Murray Norris and his team developed a pioneering tool that is improving the survival of children with leukaemia by stopping the cancer from returning.
