Our Newcastle University Centre for Cancer has its own account @nucancer.bsky.social Follow us to hear from our 100+ cancer researchers & how they translate their research into the clinic. For example our Drug Discovery group developed the clinically approved Rucaparib (PARPi) & Erdafitinib (FGFRi)
