Created by The Institute of Cancer Research, London. the new Creating Cancer Treatments video and resource pack has been designed to allow students to explore how our researchers discover new cancer drugs and develop them for patients.
The resource includes a 10-minute video presented by researchers at The Institute of Cancer Research (ICR), a suite of classroom activities, and a lesson-style presentation containing learning objectives and answers. Together, they can be used as a full lesson and for home-learning.
The resource has been designed to support the GCSE science curriculum in the following areas:
- The discovery and development of new drugs
- Clinical and preclinical testing
- Cancer
It goes beyond the content of the curriculum, introducing new concepts involved in the creation of new treatments to enrich learning and facilitate a deeper understanding of drug discovery and development.
