A team of researchers has found that immune cells are held back from fighting lung tumours by another type of cell in the surrounding cellular neighbourhood. The research could lay the groundwork for helping to reduce resistance to a group of cancer drugs called KRAS inhibitors. Find out more about the work by Megan Cole , Julian Downward , Febe van Maldegem and colleagues ⤵️ https://lnkd.in/e-Ghv2Kj

We’re working to make high-end microscopy technologies available to scientists who wouldn’t otherwise have access to them. Our Electron Microscopy team, led by Lucy Collinson , is developing an affordable, high-precision set-up designed for use at the Crick and around the world. https://lnkd.in/gCU-6ZSD
