What this research studies
This research focuses on an annual, intensive workshop designed to train the next generation of cancer researchers through hands-on experience. Participants, including students, postdocs, patients, and faculty, will collaborate on current cancer projects, integrating ecology, biological experiments, and mathematical modeling. The workshop aims to enhance understanding of tumor behavior and treatment responses, culminating in the development of pilot grant proposals that will be evaluated by experts. Successful proposals may receive funding to support ongoing research efforts.
