Thanks so much for coming to see us @lucysian248 and for your really interesting talk. Lots of potential to improve the early detection of #PancreaticCancer by monitoring at-risk groups such as people with new-onset or worsening diabetes, excited to see how this progresses! 💜👩🔬
Yesterday we were delighted to welcome @lucysian248 to our office where she gave a brilliant presentation to staff on her research focused on identifying people with new-onset diabetes who may also have #PancreaticCancer. Thanks so much for taking the time to join us!

Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest common cancer. More than half of people die within three months of diagnosis. Families are left with only hope to hold onto. But people with #PancreaticCancer deserve more than just hope. Stand with us:

It was great to spend the last few days in Brighton at the #LibDemConf speaking to MPs and party members about #PancreaticCancer and how they can help us improve survival rates for the deadliest common cancer. Thanks to everyone who stopped by our stand!
Goodbye, Brighton! Thanks to all the Liberal Democrat MPs and delegates who visited us @LibDemConf. We can’t wait to start working together to drive forward progress for people with #PancreaticCancer. Next, we’ll be heading to Liverpool for Labour Party Conference.

Great to be at the @LibDemConf in Brighton for the next few days raising awareness of #PancreaticCancer and the less survivable cancers, and how the government can help us change things for people affected by this devastating disease.
More than half of people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer die within three months. Thank you to @AndrewGeorge_ who dropped by to chat to Katherine @libdemconf to find out how we can work together to change this. #LDConf

It was a privilege to spend time with Jake & show him some of the work we’re supporting which aims to improve early detection & treatment of #pancreaticcancer. Such an emotional & inspiring day. Thanks to the @CRUKCamPancCan for being so welcoming and generous with their time! 💜
Jake, who lost his grandmother Doreen to pancreatic cancer after only six months, visited our Cambridge research lab to find out how we aim to double the number of survivors. Double your donation today and help find the answers we urgently need:

More than half of people with pancreatic cancer will die within three months of diagnosis. But your support is leading the way. This week we have the support of some familiar faces to tell you why support for pancreatic cancer research is so desperately needed.

Brilliant two days in Liverpool for #PCUKForum2024, great to catch up with our research community, learn about latest developments & discuss challenges. Always so inspiring & exciting to hear how we’re making much-needed progress towards improving early detection & treatment! 💜
And that's a wrap on #PCUKForum2024! Over 100 #PancreaticCancer researchers joined us over two days for networking, collaboration and debate. We've had some really useful and thought-provoking discussions, thanks to everyone who came along. Over and out - until next year!
