“Dr. Ashley Kiemen at Johns Hopkins University speaks about 3D CODA maps for pancreatic cancer liver metastases AACR inaugural grantee meeting in Philadelphia.

Looking at metastatic lesions she sees immune cells at periphery appearing blocked from entry while the core may be hypoxic. Developing tools to look at subset of cells that invade and metastasize.”

Wafik S. El-Deiry, MD, PhD, FACP, FRSM, is the Associate Dean for Oncologic Sciences at the Warren Alpert Medical School and Director of the Legorreta Cancer Center at Brown University and Director of the Joint Program in Cancer Biology at Brown University and affiliated hospitals. He is the Editor in Chief at Oncotarget. Dr. El-Deiry discovered p21(WAF1) as a p53 target gene, cell cycle inhibitor, and tumor suppressor that explained the mammalian cell stress response. Dr. El-Deiry’s research is focused on mechanisms of therapy resistance with major efforts in drug discovery and development.
