It's a cold, wet Saturday afternoon and time for today's blog post!
I recently read about the new Cell Slider website from Cancer Research UK (CRUK) that allows members of the public to take an active part in breast cancer research. Samples of breast tissue have been uploaded to Cell Slider for users to assess and potentially flag up any that might need further investigation. There's a tutorial to explain what you need to look out for and you can spend as much or as little time assessing samples as suits you. It's an intriguing idea and, if this breast cancer model works, CRUK will look at extending it to other types of cancer.
I've already spent some time on the Cell Slider website and if you'd like to get involved too you can find the site here:
Helping to research a cure for cancer is only a click away!
