Aidan has demonstrated the importance of Sodium ion transport in the metabolism of glucose in cancer cells using a multitude of clinically relevant medical imaging techniques and some he developed himself. By better understanding the role of Sodium and other ion salts in cancer metabolism it is hoped that the aggressiveness of tumours can be evaluated earlier, and patients can receive more precise therapies to improve their outcomes.
