At CSB+SJU, students like Tom VanDenEinde are using their skills to create real-world impact. Learn more about Tom's summer research project and how it could revolutionize breast cancer detection: https://lnkd.in/gGKMp5Ty

New research article from our research team!!! This study explored the mechanism of cell death of a novel copper complex in breast cancer cells. Read more about it: https://lnkd.in/d-VGszz5

🧬 At a roundtable discussion moderated by Dr. Shikha Jain, Dr. Arvind Dasari spoke on the benefits of ctDNA in the adjuvant setting for patients with #colorectal cancer, highlighting its prognostic value and application. 📺 Watch the full roundtable session: https://buff.ly/3VTtG52

🎨🔬 Bringing Science to Life! 🌟 🖼️🎬 I had a blast creating a graphical abstract that not only tells a scientific story but also comes to life in an animated slide for a presentation. 🔬💡 This project was a fusion of my scientific and creative knowledge, illustrating the potential of methylglyoxal scavengers to reverse resistance in breast cancer cells. 🩸🦠 🙏 Huge thanks to Akeila BELLAHCENE for trusting me with this important project. 🤝 🔬🎨 This project exemplifies the magic that happens when scientific and creative knowledge merge! 🌌📊 #SciArt #BreastCancerResearch #ScientificCreativity

Happy to share that Most Viewed Special Issues in 2023 in the Section “Molecular Cancer Biology”@Cancers_MDP. The Special Issues list is as follows: https://lnkd.in/d9MwZsC6

The EACR's Highlights in Cancer Research picks out key recent papers so you don't have to 💡 Discover why we selected this Cancer Discovery paper by Wang, Z. et al.: https://lnkd.in/eTuCfH9B

"Glioblastoma is an extremely lethal brain tumor, with an almost 100% fatality rate. A single chemotherapy drug as part of the standard-of-care exists to treat patients, but it has limited efficiency. A new publication by Weifan Dong and colleagues report several significant discoveries that could have life-changing consequences for patients with glioblastoma." The annual Brain Star Awards are a partnership between CIHR-INMHA and the Canadian Association for Neuroscience that celebrate Canada's best in student and trainee neuroscience research. The 15 projects recognized in this year’s program involve high-impact discoveries addressing the full scope of CIHR-INMHA’s mandate. The 2024 competition will launch later this fall. Eligibility information: https://lnkd.in/gF4XMZTS We recently checked in with some of the past recipients to hear how their careers have progressed since they won the award.

Did you participate in the Cancer Discovery Virtual Symposium on Reducing the Global Burden in September? During the symposium, a global cancer research panel including Satish Gopal, Bob Li, Isabel Mestres, CS Pramesh, and Eric Solary, discussed how international efforts to understand and combat cancer can be integrated for maximum worldwide impact while not overlooking the unique challenges different regions face. Watch it now on demand to be inspired by their stories: https://bit.ly/3wHmY8i
