Avril Deegan and Prof. Owen Smith in conversation about Childhood Cancers

As part of our ‘Cancer Conversations’ series, people with a personal experience of cancer, either themselves or through a loved one, chat with some of the amazing researchers and clinicians we are working with.
Here, Avril Deegan, PhD student and a survivor of childhood leukaemia met with Prof. Owen Smith, Consultant Paediatric Haematologist, to discuss childhood cancers.
Avril and Owen explore the advances that have been made in treatments for childhood cancers and the importance of Avril’s research into survivorship and the complexities of making the transition from finishing treatment back to everyday life.
