January 2024 – Ca-PRI Episode 1 – with Assoc. Prof Sarah Bailey and Guest Host Dr Sibel Saya

Research Round-up

This is the first of three taster episodes we are releasing in the lead-up to Ca-PRI 2024. Sarah Bailey is an Associate Professor of Primary Care Diagnostics at the University of Exeter. Her PhD established the link between platelet count and cancer in primary care. She now leads a portfolio of research focussed on cancer in primary care, and the development and implementation of new detection strategies for symptomatic patients. Sarah's work includes practice-changing research on the use of blood-based markers of cancer, faecal immunochemical tests for symptomatic patients, and the integration of genetic risk scores into suspected cancer pathways.
