      There are many different daily challenges, but overall, research science is expensive and so we are constantly looking for grants or sponsorship to fund the people and equipment. If I won the Euromillions, I could fund it myself!

      One of our key challenges is making sure that the basic science discoveries we make can be used to better treat cancer and have a real impact on patients.

      One big obstacle is trying to find money to fund our work, that can be a lot of work and very frustrating.
