WTCS Limited specifically supports the work being carried out at Exeter University on finding an anti-cancer drug using natural products. Dr Ian Coldham is researching into making a natural sea sponge which will hopefully have anti-cancer properties, whereas Professor Chris Moody and his team are working on targeted delivery of tumour growth inhibitors - an anti-cancer drug - which will target cancer cells and leave healthy cells alone, again using natural products.
