Past Division of Cancer Biology Research Programs

DCB funded past research programs that supported emerging areas in cancer biology and advanced basic cancer research.

Past Programs from DCB

Barrett's Esophagus Translational Research Network (BETRNet)

Centralizing and enhancing efforts to understand Barrett's esophagus (BE) and to prevent esophageal adenocarcinoma (EA).
Molecular Characterization of Screen-Detected Lesions (MCL)

Comprehensively characterized cellular and molecular components of early lesions.
New Approaches to Synthetic Lethality for Mutant KRAS-Dependent Cancer

Used next-generation approaches to identify new strategies to treat KRAS-driven cancers.
Patient-Derived Models of Cancer (PDMC) Program

Developing and characterizing patient-derived models to investigate the biological mechanisms that drive cancer phenotype and response to perturbations.
Tumor Microenvironment Network (TMEN)

Advanced the understanding of a tumor’s interactions with its surrounding microenvironment.
