T-Rex in Edinburgh - day 2

The weather was beautiful this morning, so KryptoMart and I took T-Rex to Morningside, however, we went via the Edinburgh Cancer Research Centre, which is based at the Western Infirmary.

The aim of the centre as mentioned on their website is:

Our research is geared to understanding cancer, its aberrant behaviour and control, and to translate our discoveries for the benefit of cancer patients. We also study the pre-malignant state, so as to understand risk and how to prevent and treat cancer. The Edinburgh CRUK Centre integrates the latest technologies and multi-disciplinary approaches, addressing fundamental questions in cancer research. We aim to provide an inspiring training environment for scientists and clinicians.

Cancer is terrible and affects and wrecks so many lives, but it is good to know that such good work is being undertaken throughout the country to try to eradicate this awful disease in its many forms.

This blip is dedicated to all people out there suffering cancer or those who have lost loved ones to cancer.
