Dr Anne Hermann (IIB, UoL) discussed the chick embryo model in cancer research: from standard protocols to new clinically relevant discoveries, Dr Jodi Alexander (ITM, UoL) highlighted the use of the chick embryo in Uveal Melanoma. Finally, Dr Thomas Butts (UoL) provided an overview on the use the chick as a model to study brain development, with Prof Coupland summing up.
