A study led by a BRC-funded researcher has found that a new, less invasive diagnostic test is significantly more sensitive for colon cancer than the current radiological standard of barium enema and not significantly different from the ‘gold-standard’ of colonoscopy.

Our Biomedical Research Centre has awarded over £350,000 to the MRC Centre for Neuromuscular Diseases at UCL. The centre, which is one of the MRC’s translational research centres set up in partnership with NIHR biomedical research centres at GOSH and Newcastle University, focuses on bridging the gap between basic science and clinical outcomes. Pivotal to this award has been the leveraging of MRC funding.
