Make 2nds Count has donated over £150,000 to support a pioneering research project at the University of Edinburgh’s Breast Cancer Translational Research Group at the Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre. The University of Edinburgh has confirmed that an appointment has been made for a post-doctoral research position, fully funded by our donations with work beginning at the start of October 2020.
Led by Academic Consultant Medical Oncologist Dr Olga Oikonomidou, the study will help us better understand Secondary Breast Cancer by identifying specific gene changes, or mutations, that drive cancer cell growth in individual patients.
