Update:
After two years of very fruitful professional association I am delighted to establish a link with Breakthrough Breast Cancer UK. I would encourage you to visit Breakthrough's website to learn more about its work in breast
cancer research.
During the first quarter we have seen sustained visitor numbers at the same level as last year. I am delighted
to have been able to work with colleagues on the Sloane Project to update the ADH page on that site and I have
used those images and text to update this site's Sloane Project ADH page in line with that.
