Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre
Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre (ECRC) is a leading cancer research institution located in Edinburgh, Scotland. The centre is dedicated to the study and treatment of cancer, with a focus on translating laboratory discoveries into clinical applications.
History[edit | edit source]
The ECRC was established in 2001 as a collaborative effort between the University of Edinburgh and Cancer Research UK. The centre's founding was driven by the need for a dedicated facility to conduct high-quality cancer research and to translate these findings into new therapies for patients.
Research[edit | edit source]
The ECRC conducts research across a broad range of cancer types, including breast cancer, lung cancer, prostate cancer, and colorectal cancer. The centre's research is divided into several key areas:
- Molecular Pathology and Genomics: This area of research focuses on understanding the genetic and molecular changes that drive cancer development and progression.
- Cancer Therapeutics: Researchers in this area are developing new drugs and therapies to treat cancer, with a focus on targeted therapies that can specifically kill cancer cells.
- Cancer Biology: This research area is focused on understanding the basic biology of cancer, including how cancer cells grow and divide, and how they interact with their environment.
Facilities[edit | edit source]
The ECRC is housed in a state-of-the-art facility that includes laboratories, offices, and meeting spaces. The centre also has access to a range of core facilities, including a genomics facility, a proteomics facility, and a bioinformatics facility.
Collaboration[edit | edit source]
The ECRC collaborates with a number of other research institutions and organisations, both within the UK and internationally. These collaborations aim to accelerate the pace of cancer research and to bring new treatments to patients more quickly.
