Institute Seminar Wednesday, October 13th, 12 o’clock Lina Prasmickaite, Department of Tumor Biology
Lina Prasmickaite from the Department of Tumor Biology will present her talk:
”Therapeutic strategies for resistant cancer”
Time: Wednesday October 13th at 12:00
Place: the Auditorium
Abstract:
Resistance to standard therapy raises the need for treatment alternatives. Our current focus on chemoresistant breast cancer leans on clinical-trial linked analyses and hypothesis driven pre-clinical research. After brief presentation of the plans regarding the former, I will focus on the lessons learned in pre-clinical studies, specifically, stromal interactions and phenotypic plasticity as resistance contributors and how it could be exploited for therapeutic purposes
