About Mhairi Morris

My current research interests include understanding the interactions between breast cancer cells and stromal cells in the tumour microenvironment, and how exercise may impinge on these interactions. We created a novel 3D model system for investigating the interactions between mesenchymal stem cells and 3D tumour spheroids, and are now branching into patient-derived organoids and adipocytes to model the obesogenic environment in hormonal breast cancers. 

Organoids, chips or both?

I'm all about organoids! I'm interested in both!
