Research Areas: Cancer Biology
The Cancer Systems Biology Consortium (CSBC), which includes cancer biologists, engineers, mathematicians, physicists, and oncologists, aims to tackle the most perplexing issues in cancer to increase our understanding of tumor biology, treatment options, and patient outcomes.The initiative takes an integrative approach to cancer research, with the goal of improving the lives of people with cancer.
Cancer Biology, Epidemiology, and Treatment in the 21st Century
The Biology of Cancer. Cancer is a disease that begins with genetic and epigenetic alterations occurring in specific cells, some of which can spread and migrate to other tissues. 4 Although the biological processes affected in carcinogenesis and the evolution of neoplasms are many and widely different, we will focus on 4 aspects that are particularly relevant in tumor biology: genomic and ...
Overview
Research across a broad spectrum of cancer is connected by a common theme: the molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis. Our investigators focus on eight research areas, including cancer disparities, oncogenes, precision cancer medicine and tumor immunology.

This includes studies of the fundamental mechanisms that drive pre-cancer states, oncogenic transformation, and that support tumor growth and behavior.
Accelerating the understanding of cancer biology through the lens of
A core mission of cancer genomics is to comprehensively chart molecular underpinnings of cancer-driving events and to provide personalized therapeutic strategies. Primarily focused on cancer cells, cancer genomics studies have successfully uncovered many drivers for major cancer types. Since the emergence of cancer immune evasion as a critical ...
Mechanisms of Cancer
New areas of basic cancer research, including how each cell differs from others within a tumor, how the environment in which a tumor grows impacts its progress and how well an individual's immune system mounts a defense, will yield improved outcomes for patients. ... Until now, studies of cancer biology have largely focused on what makes ...
