UNC Breast Cancer SPORE

UNC Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center’s strengths in bioinformatics, immunogenomics, proteomics and population-based cohort studies supports the UNC Breast Cancer SPORE’s clinical, public health and basic researcher teams.

The SPORE researchers’ work includes the continuation of two studies supported by previous SPORE funding and the launch of two new studies.

Specifically, the research projects will focus on racial and age-related disparities in outcomes, biomarkers, immunotherapy and triple negative breast cancer that is resistant to conventional treatments.

The UNC Breast Cancer SPORE is led by Principal Investigators Charles Perou, PhD, and Lisa Carey, MD, ScM.
