Leanne Li, MD, PhD 


The Francis Crick Institute

London, UK

Dr. Li leads the Cancer-Neuroscience laboratory at the Francis Crick Institute in London, UK. Her lab employs contemporary cancer genetics and neuroscience methodologies to reveal cancer-nervous system interactions in a panel of genetically engineered mouse models, mainly focusing on lung and pancreatic cancers. They aim to identify the logic underpinning how the body sense and respond to cancer progression via the nervous system, thereby harnessing this crosstalk to advance cancer therapeutics.
