Welcome to the Creating the Future podcast from the Events team at Cancer Research UK. Our virtual Creating the Future event took place on 19 November 2020, featuring four researchers from the Francis Crick Institute in London. In 2020 they set aside their research programmes to focus on finding answers to fundamental questions about COVID-19. The panel was hosted by the Crick's Director, Nobel Laureate Sir Paul Nurse and was introduced by the Institute's Chair Lord Browne.
