The first Fusion Science Centre was launched in the UK

as part of the Cancer Institute's new 13 million pound Cancer Research UK Fusion Science Centre, scientists are "reimagining ultrasound technology to develop a treatment that uses tiny bubbles to liquefy cancer cells in the body."
Announcing the development of a new treatment that does not require invasive surgery, a press release from Cancer Research UK brought together scientists from two of the UK's most prominent academic institutions, led by Professor Paul Workman, a leading cancer specialist at the Institute of Cancer Research in London, and Professor Ara Arazi of Imperial College London.
Researchers are using innovative methods that will enable the center's team to work together in new ways to accelerate scientific discovery and innovation in cancer patients and to create new treatments and technologies.
In one of the center's projects, a team of biologists, physicists, engineers and clinicians is exploring the possibility of using specialized therapeutic ultrasounds, called tissue excisions, to destroy pancreatic tumors deep in the body.
Professor Paul Workman, chief executive of the London Cancer Institute and director of the Fusion Science Centre, said: "It's fantastic to think that microbes can be used to separate cancer cells, it's just an exciting example of
,
and we look forward to seeing innovation in the new Fusion Science Centre.
"The new center will serve as a gathering place for world-class researchers in engineering, physics, chemistry, and artificial intelligence, working closely with prominent biologists and clinicians to create new solutions to the key challenges we face in cancer," he continued. It will open up exciting new areas of cancer research and bring innovative treatments, testing and technologies to patients.with the support of Cancer Research UK, we bring together two of the world's leading research institutions with complementary areas of expertise and a vibrant culture of collaboration that will nurture a new generation of truly multidisciplinary cancer researchers.
