HHHO-Funded PhD Student Leads Global Breakthroughs in Brain Tumour Research

Help Harry Help Others (HHHO) is celebrating a deeply meaningful milestone in its mission to transform outcomes for children with brain tumours, as Timothy Mulvany, a PhD student at Aston University, gains international recognition for his pioneering research funded through the charity’s HelpCURE programme.

Based at Aston University’s Institute for Health and Neurodevelopment, Timothy is working at the forefront of paediatric brain tumour imaging - a field very close to HHHO’s heart. His research was recently presented on the global stage at the International Society for Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) Annual Meeting in Hawaii, where his innovations in non-invasive imaging techniques captured the attention of leading scientists and clinicians from around the world.

The significance of this achievement runs deep. Help Harry Help Others was founded in memory of Harry Moseley, who died from a brain tumour at just 11 years old. Launched in Harry’s name, the HelpCURE programme funds academic research with the potential to radically improve the lives of children diagnosed with the same illness. Timothy’s growing impact in the research community is a testament to what can be achieved when loss is transformed into action - and when communities come together to support change.

Alongside his international recognition, Timothy is also making his mark here in the UK. He has presented his work at the British-Irish ISMRM Symposium, published a number of peer-reviewed scientific papers, and is preparing to compete in this year’s Brain Tumour Segmentation Paediatric Challenge - a major research competition focused on improving diagnostic precision in childhood cancers.

Georgie Moseley, Founder of HHHO and Harry’s mom, said: “This is Harry’s legacy in action. We lost him far too soon, but through research like Timothy’s, we’re giving other children a better chance. We couldn’t be prouder to see our HelpCURE programme producing research of this calibre - and we couldn’t do it without the people who continue to support us.”

Every step of this progress is made possible through public donations. By funding PhD students like Timothy, HHHO is investing in the future of cancer research and ensuring that more families facing a brain tumour diagnosis have hope.

Together, we are not just honouring Harry’s memory - we are helping to build a future where fewer lives are lost, and more children live to fulfil their potential.
