The NBC consists of multiple complementary teams, including the Preclinical Pharmacology (PP) team that uses a variety of preclinical cancer model systems to interrogate the biology and dependencies of different cancers. An integral part of this is the generation, development, and use of animal models of cancer, with a particular focus on patient-derived models.

Our advanced research programmes, agnostic to cancer type, develop biomarkers in tissue and less invasive clinical samples such as blood (liquid biopsy) with sophisticated bioinformatic and artificial intelligence solutions for multi-modal laboratory and clinical biomarker data analysis and interpretation.
