Fascinating to see the @stmarkshospital.bsky.social for work analysing historical bowel cancer specimens. The hospital archives (reference SBHK) document decades at the forefront of cancer research for many decades, including the world's first familial cancer registry www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Dick Bussey, c1920s, who as an assistant in the Research Department and Pathology Departments at St Mark's Hospital, first set up a paper registry system that recorded the details of individuals with multiple polyps and a family history of bowel cancer, and became the first database for understanding familial cancers (SBHK/HP/9/2/2)
