Mission
Cell migration from the primary tumor to distant organs in the body (metastasis) is the major cause of death in cancer patients. Our major research objective is to elucidate the underlying mechanisms that regulate this process using cellular and animal model systems combined with high resolution microscopy and molecular biology.
Researchers at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), have come up with an unlikely yet extremely promising ally to fight Inflammatory breast cancer using a transparent zebrafish suitable for xenografts.
