Cancer – Where do cancer cells go wrong?

Understanding the molecular and cellular causes of diseases that affect millions is at the core of Biomedical Science and the discovery of new treatments. During this taster session, we’ll run an online tutorial to discuss how cancer develops in the body. Tutorials are a fun and interactive way of learning and form a central part of studying at Sheffield. This session will give you a chance to discuss your ideas around one of the biggest global health challenges that we're facing and see how our tutors will support your learning. You’ll also have the chance to talk to some of our current undergraduate students, a member of our admissions team, and an expert in learning and teaching, who will all be on hand to answer any queries you might have about studying the biosciences at university.
