The Healikick project is developing next generation bone graft materials to repair non-healing broken bones.

The UofG-led project with researchers from across Europe is developing new technology which offers hope for patients with non-healing fractures.

We've had the honor to welcome patients with #metastatic #breastcancer. Their energy & enthusiasm for research was deeply touching, as it were their stories. We were left speechless and even more motivated to continue our research. Thank you! @CMMetastasico @canceryconmetas @Maitetabizi #izaniñurri

Truly inspiring #Gordon conference Physical Science of Cancer in California! Due to NIH cuts and shocking absence of speakers, I presented our work on #dormancy and #metastasis. Great catching up with colleagues and meeting new ones! Very excited to chair GRC 2027 with @profharley.bsky.social!
