Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions. What should we do with our second vote in 2021? What happens if Westminster says no to indyref2?
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversation, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.

Scottish spinout in £1m raise to fund cancer test breakthrough


By Victoria Masterson
A SPIN-OUT from the University of Edinburgh has raised £1 million to develop a new device that could “revolutionise” the early diagnosis and monitoring of difficult to detect cancers, such as kidney, thyroid and brain cancer.
BioCaptiva raised the seed investment from business angel syndicate, Archangels, and economic development agency Scottish Enterprise for its ‘BioCollector’ device.
The company says this overcomes “significant limitations” of current liquid biopsy testing – where blood is analysed for cells from cancerous tumours.
“We are confident that this platform technology can make a significant impact in this important area and, ultimately, enable cancers to be detected more quickly and accurately, enabling patients to receive precision cancer treatment as early as possible,” said BioCaptiva chief executive Jeremy Wheeler.
