Dissecting Pancreatic Cancer: Where It Starts, What It Does, and How We Fight Back

About this event

Pancreatic cancer is one of the toughest diagnoses out there, often coming with sobering statistics and risk factors we are still working hard to understand. What makes this cancer particularly tricky is its heavily armored and dense microenvironment made up of many different cell types that shield the tumor. By figuring out how the cancer cells interact with that environment and through the development of targeted therapies, researchers are truly changing the game for treatment and bringing real hope for the future.
