Targeting the blood supply in tumours
Professor Gillian Tozer runs the Tumour Microcirculation Group at the University of Sheffield. She and her team are investigating the way that blood vessels grow within a tumour - a process known as angiogenesis. They are seeking new ways of targeting this process in order to develop better treatments for cancer.
