Our researchers in Manchester have discovered how different types of melanoma cells may work together to spread around the body. By looking at these cells, and analysing how they interact with each other, our scientists are piecing together the crucial events that help melanoma cells spread. And by doing this, we move a step closer to understanding how to stop skin cancer spreading. Videos courtesy of the researchers at Manchester University.
