Adapting to change and challenge

This feature was written by Becky Allen for the 2023-2024 Institute Review.

Understanding how things work underpins the Institute’s past, present and future. Dr Simon Cook, Institute Director and head of the Signalling programme, explains why he’s an evangelist for discovery research, how this quest for understanding is reflected in the Institute’s science, its people and the ecosystem of the Babraham Research Campus, and looks ahead to the next four years’ work.

Making the Most of Signalling Research

This feature was written by Becky Allen for the Annual Research Report 2017

Bringing together the Institute’s researchers with scientists in the 60 companies on the Babraham Research Campus is helping turn innovative ideas into new benefits for human health – fast. Over the past two years, members of the Signalling research programme have transformed a conversation over coffee into a collaboration that could deliver new ways of treating some of the most intractable human cancers.
