University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers reported the discovery of a potential treatment strategy to reduce resistance to a chemotherapy combination used to treat pancreatic cancer, one of the deadliest cancer types.
In the journal Nature Communications, researchers from the University of North Carolina Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center reported they have designed a computational method for separating the different tissues in a particular sample – whether that is stroma in the case of pancreatic cancer, immune cells or cancer cells.
The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Integrated Translational Oncology Program (UNC-iTOP) is a T32 training program focused on training clinicians (MDs), basic scientists (PhDs), and PhD, MD and MD-PhD candidates in clinical/translational disease-based research at the interface of clinical oncology and cancer biology using patient samples.
We are thrilled to congratulate Matthew Lipner of Yeh lab on successfully completing his PhD defense, an achievement that follows years of hard work. A successful PhD defense is one of the landmark achievements of a researcher’s career and is sure to be only the first step in Matt’s journey.
