DESCRIPTION:Manchester Breast Centre (MBC) External Seminar Series\, spon
 sored by Breast Cancer Now\nThursday 2 November 2023\, 2:00pm – 3:00pm \
 nProfessor Val Brunton\, University of Edinburgh - “Tumour-stromal inter
 actions and adhesion proteins in breast cancer” \nHosted by: Rob Clarke\
 nLive seminar at: OCRB Lecture Theatre\, Oglesby Cancer Research Buildin
 g\, 555 Wilmslow Rd\, Manchester M20 4GJ \n\nVal Brunton – Professor of 
 Cancer Therapeutics \nProfessor Valerie Brunton is chair of Cancer Thera
 peutics at the Edinburgh Cancer Research UK Centre\, University of Edinb
 urgh. \nVal’s research interests are focussed on understanding how the t
 umour microenvironment regulates cancer progression and response to ther
 apy.\nTheir research focuses on understanding the molecular mechanisms w
 hereby tumour cells can metastasise and in particular how adhesion netwo
 rks drive metastatic spread. They are also interested in how these same 
 adhesion pathways regulate the tumour microenvironment.\nThey use a rang
 e of protein/peptide technologies\, genetic intervention and high-defini
 tion biological analysis including mouse models of cancer and quantitati
 ve intra-vital imaging that permits visualisation of multiple cancer cel
 l phenotypes in vivo. This provides information on the molecular regulat
 ors of cancer processes linked to invasion\, metastasis and survival in 
 the tumour environment and allows them to monitor drug efficacy and mech
 anism of action of new molecularly targeted agents to enable identificat
 ion of more effective treatments.\n
