Preliminary Results Ready for Seattle

Great news - preliminary results from the STMN1 project are now ready for the USCAP meeting in Seattle next week! I'll have some higher resolution photos of our results to share with you soon. You can see the beautiful golden staining of STMN1 in the right column of photos - this is going to change the way bladder carcinoma in situ is diagnosed! Thanks again to everyone for all the support.

    Congrats Douglas! Looks like great work. I don't think I have enough grey matter to process all that but that's why you're the doctor! Go get 'em in Seattle!

About This Project

Molecular pathoepidemiology is the study of the cause and natural history of disease on a molecular, individual, and population level, utilizing tissue specimens and data from existing epidemiological studies. We aim to use this method to better diagnose bladder cancer, to more accurately estimate its risk of recurrence, and to inform personalized targeting of anti-cancer drugs. In the long term, we plan to apply these principles to other cancers and related illnesses.
