Funded Activity Summary

Treatments for cancers result in markedly impaired blood cell production. Non-blood cell types within the bone marrow (BM) microenvironment are important to the regulation of blood cell production. We have evidence these cancer treatments also damage the BM microenvironment. We aim to fully explore how cancer treatments impact on the BM microenvironment. We can then determine how to improve recovery of the BM microenvironment in order to rapidly restore blood cell production after treatment.
