Press and media
The results of the SOLUS Project will have a significant impact on breast cancer diagnosis and treatment. As a result, keeping all stakeholders informed and up-to-date is also a key aim of the project and a range of press and dissemination material will be created at each stage of the project to announce the latest results.
SOLUS Videos
We have published two videos about the project. The first video is a short explainer of the project's overall objective and a summary of our overall results, and the impact these have.
The second video is a more in-depth demonstration of the SOLUS system's operation, in addition to information about the project, it's objectives and the scientific need.
