Drs. Songhai Chen, MD, PhD and Mark Stamnes, PhD, Associate Professors in the Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Physiology and Biophysics, have been awarded a Carver Collaborative Grant. The project is titled “Identification of novel genetic determinants of endocrine resistance in breast cancer by an in vivo CRISPR-based screen”. It will determine the role of candidate genes identified from a CRISPR-based screen in ER+ breast cancer progression and response to endocrine therapies, and elucidate the underlying mechanisms.
