How Can We Help?
Philip Douglas Lawley (4 July 1927 – 18 December 2011 )[1] was a British chemist, best known for demonstrating that DNA damage was the base cause of cancer working with Peter Brookes.[1][2] In January 2003 the ICR honoured the achievements of Brookes and Lawley by naming a £21m laboratory after them. It is devoted to research on the genetic nature of cancer and located next to the Haddow laboratories.[3]
