HTML In December 2018, The Guardian ran a feature on fertility preservation which included the work of Rod Mitchell (Paediatric Endocrinologist) and Hamish Wallace (Paediatric Oncologist) from the Royal Hospital for Sick Children (RHSC). The article included interviews with patients and Professor Wallace. There was also a visit to Dr Mitchell's lab at the Queens Medical Research Institute to learn about his Children with Cancer UK funded research.
