Research happening right now in Manchester

In Manchester, Professor Caroline Dive and Professor Phil Crosbie are developing blood tests to detect early-stage lung cancer. They’re investigating whether these tests could improve screening, by comparing and combining them with other methods. 

This research could lead to more lung cancers being detected at an early stage, increasing the likelihood that people’s treatment is successful.
