Description

Acute myeloid leukaemia is a highly diverse blood cancer associated with a poor 5-year survival rate of less than 30 per cent, necessitating the development of new treatments for this disease. Modelling leukaemia in three-dimensions may allow for drug testing that is more representative of the human tumour microenvironment than traditional cell culture. In this project, a three-dimensional hydrogel model was developed that can be used for cell expansion and for drug testing.

Search Google Scholar™

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.

Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
