Prostate Cancer Research Program

Dr Jennifer Isaac 

 
My laboratory studies events involved in the progression of prostate cancer. Although patients diagnosed with early stage prostate cancer may respond to treatment, metastatic spread is primarily responsible for the high lethality of this disease. Specifically, we are examining the molecular and genetic events associated with prostate tumor metastasis. Our goal is to identify the key factors driving this process and to find targets suitable for therapeutic intervention that will lessen the lethality of this disease.
 
It’s because of your fundraising efforts with the Pajama Run that we are able to continue these efforts.
 
Thank you for your support,
 
Dr. Jennifer Isaac
