Children's CancersCancers in children are very different from cancers in adults - in most cases they appear to strike simply at random. They also develop differently and can spread more rapidly and aggressively. And because cancers in children are not obviously linked to their lifestyles, much work is needed to pinpoint their cause.
The Kids has a range of specialised expertise, tools, platforms and technology to undertake cutting-edge science.
