Blood clots are a common complication of cancer. Naomi's talk will explore how cancer hijacks the blood's clotting system, why this causes problems for patients and what researchers are trying to do about it. She will discuss how we are analysing DNA and data to understand which patients with cancer are likely to develop a clot and the challenges involved in using our genes to predict future risks.
