Our research in Nottingham
We fund the clinical trials work of the Children’s Cancer and Leukaemia Group (CCLG) at the Queen's Medical Centre in Nottingham. The group co-ordinates the care of virtually all the UK’s children with cancer, ensuring they receive the most up-to-date treatments.
Below are some of the highlights of our research in Nottingham.

Stomach cancer
Prof John Atherton

How do bacteria cause stomach cancer?
Professor John Atherton is director of the Nottingham Digestive Diseases Centre. His research focuses on how infection with a type of bacteria called H. pylori can cause stomach cancer in some people. Professor Atherton's group is comparing different strains of H. pylori to work out why some strains increase the risk of cancer while others are harmless.
