Scientific summary

Most cancer deaths are caused by metastases, which form when cancer cells detach from primary cancers and spread via the bloodstream to other tissues. Professor Ridley's laboratory is investigating the molecular mechanisms whereby cancer cells become motile and move across endothelial cells lining blood vessels.
