About Helen Arthur

Dr Helen Arthur works at the Institute of Human Genetics in Newcastle. She is studying a protein called endoglin, which helps tumours to grow a blood supply. This process, known as angiogenesis, is an essential part of the growth and spread of cancer. Finding a way to block this protein could lead to future cancer treatments.
