100 Push-ups a Day Challenge June
Sun 1 Jun 2025 - Mon 30 Jun 2025
My Story
I'm Matouš, a first-year PhD student at the Francis Crick Institute, funded by Cancer Research UK. I use computer-based methods to study kidney cancer and better understand how tumours interact with their surroundings. This month, I’m taking on the CRUK 100 push-ups a day challenge to raise money for life-saving cancer research. As a cancer researcher, I see every day how much more there is to learn and how vital continued funding is. I'm pushing myself physically to support the push for better treatments and outcomes.
