Overview
Our annual Scientific Reports detail the activities of each research group, describing their publications and research projects for the year. It also contains information about technical and operational activities and our funding streams.
The latest Scientific Report highlighted a significant period for our Institute as we made the long-anticipated return to the Paterson Building, our brand-new research facility on the Christie NHS Foundation Trust site. Here you can find out how our staff continued to excel in all aspects of Institute life and reconnected with the wider scientific community within the Manchester Cancer Research Centre.
