      My current project is on cancer in general. That’s because I’m actually working on the other side of the battle – I’m doing more work on the immune system, and trying to help them kill cancer – any kind of cancer! So I’m doing stuff to certain types of immune cells to get them to work better…I’m not actually doing anything to the cancer cells directly.

      (In my last project I worked on a specific kind of cancer – leukaemia. But I like my current project much better 🙂 )
