Our research features take a more in-depth look at selected aspects of our research and the wider impacts of our science for the wider world. Browse all of these articles in the reader window below or access specific features directly from the introductions further down the page. These features were originally produced as part of our Annual ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Reports.
This feature was written by Becky Allen for the 2023-2024 ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Review.
Understanding how things work underpins the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s past, present and future. Dr Simon Cook, ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Director and head of the Signalling programme, explains why he’s an evangelist for discovery research, how this quest for understanding is reflected in the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s science, its people and the ecosystem of the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Campus, and looks ahead to the next four years’ work.
This feature was developed by Louisa Wood from a conversation between Simon Cook and Richard Dyer to mark the 30th anniversary of the naming of the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ and published in the 2023-2024 ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Review.
Thirty years on from the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s official renaming, former director Richard Dyer (1994-2005) and current director Simon Cook reflect on shared history, the essence of ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ and where another thirty years might take us.

Bringing together the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´â€™s researchers with scientists in the 60 companies on the ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ ÐÓ°ÉÔ´´ Campus is helping turn innovative ideas into new benefits for human health – fast. Over the past two years, members of the Signalling research programme have transformed a conversation over coffee into a collaboration that could deliver new ways of treating some of the most intractable human cancers.
