Great episode with The GlioBabes featuring @jesell_ discussing the day-to-day of research and gentler, more effective treatments 🎙️
We were delighted to welcome The GlioBabes into our lab to record an episode of their podcast with Dr Jessica Taylor. Search for the The GlioBabes Podcast to hear about the day-to-day role of researchers and how they are focusing on gentler as well as more effective treatments.

Wishing Gina every success in her future endeavours. It has been a privilege having her in the @Gilbertson_Lab @CRUK_CI , and we look forward to following her achievements ahead! 💫✨🎉
A tough farewell to my MPhil Student today who has been an absolute privilege to supervise and I’m so excited to see what she does next - albeit quietly hoping she comes back for a PhD in a couple years … A tremendous amount of work which we hope to share soon! @Gilbertson_Lab
