Thoracic Malignancy

We focus on improving the diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment of thoracic malignancies, with a primary emphasis on early detection, personalised treatment and risk reduction in lung cancer screening and mesothelioma.

Research Areas

  • Mesothelioma Research and Clinical Trials
    Pragmatic clinical trials and the development of representative patient cohorts.
  • Lung Cancer Screening (LCS)
    Optimising implementation, maximising the effectiveness and increasing participation in the national lung cancer screening programme.
  • Smoking Cessation and Behaviour Change
    Developing and evaluating interventions to increase smoking cessation uptake and success and reduce inequalities in tobacco-related harm.
