Description My research has allowed for further understanding in the prevention of muscle wasting associated with chemotherapy treatment in children. The treatment used has also shown severe side effects that would have otherwise not been known without this research.
Exploitation Route Publications will be made from this research in the upcoming months. Also, the project will be taken forward to answer further questions regarding the safety of the treatment in children (during development). As the treatment that I researched has been previously used in clinical trials, it will provide possible explanations as to why they were not successful.
