Frontiers of Science
October 3rd at 12:00
Onsite event
in Presidentti auditorium, BioCity
Prof. Carlos L. Arteaga, UTSW Harold C. Simmons Comprehensive Cancer Center, USA
Are we curing estrogen receptor positive (ER+) breast cancer?
Host: Klaus Elenius (klaele@utu.fi)
Coffee and sandwich at 11:45, first come first served!
Six PhD researchers and early-career postdocs are welcome to have a lunch and discuss with Prof. Arteaga after the seminar. This is a great possibility to learn hosting skills in a friendly environment and create connections for future. Everyone is welcome to join, BioCity Turku will offer the lunch.
If you got interested, please send an email to biocityturku@bioscience.fi
The Arteaga Laboratory has a longstanding interest in understanding the molecular pathways that drive breast cancer progression and influence response to therapies. Their focus is on translational breast cancer research, aimed at developing therapeutic strategies and identifying biomarkers of drug sensitivity and resistance. The Arteaga Laboratory incorporates molecular profiling (next-gen DNA/RNA sequencing) of primary tumors, biopsies of metastases, and plasma tumor DNA, high-throughput CRISPR and gain-of-function ORF screens, and mechanistic studies using breast cancer cell lines, cell line-derived xenografts, and patient-derived organoids and xenografts, to use insights from the laboratory to guide clinical trials. Dr. Arteaga is an internationally recognized expert in breast cancer with more than 350 publications in the areas of oncogenes and breast tumor initiation and progression, targeted therapies and biomarkers of drug action and resistance, and investigator-initiated clinical trials in breast cancer.
