Aspirin strikes again!!
Thrilled to share new work led by @JieYang437 in the lab published today in @Nature. We find that Aspirin prevents metastasis by releasing T cells from immune suppression by platelet TXA2. @Cambridge_Uni @CRUKCamCentre rdcu.be/eci1U

The PJ has produced a report for our recent article. It looks like others find the work as interesting as we did!
Research suggests that, between 2016 and 2024, students were more likely to pass the registration exam if they had undertaken their placement in a hospital, rather than a community setting

We've analysed student performance in the GPhC exam from 2011-2024. It's interesting to see such wide gaps in performance between MPharm programmes and where students take their Foundation Year (pre-registration) training.

Aspirin has been the centre of many pharmaceutics puzzles over the last century. I remember reading classic papers by Gerhard Levy and Malcolm Rowland & I often wondered if I'd ever have the chance to work on it...
So I'm delighted to share this study!
