Strategy meeting – 28.05.2024

Just prior to starting the summer season, the senior members of group for Translational studies on solid tumours met up to share results so far in 2024 and to discuss plans and future projects. With a number of funding applications in preparation to the Norwegian Cancer Society, the Norwegian research Council and the South-Eastern Norway Regional Health Authority, as well as several manuscripts in preparation, there should be enough exciting work to keep us all busy and happy over summer and into the autumn season.
