Drugging Differentiation: A New Paradigm for Colorectal Cancer Therapy?

Venue: Lecture Theatre B, Level 7, Victorian Comprehensive Cancer Centre

Presenters: Professor John Mariadason

What causes colorectal cancer cells to lose differentiation and can we target this to prevent metastasis?

Learn how Professor John Mariadason’s team have discovered specific gene losses behind colorectal cancer’s lack of differentiation – findings that could be used to reintroduce differentiation and prevent metastasis.

Professor John Mariadason is Professor at the School of Cancer Medicine at La Trobe University and Head of the Oncogenic Transcription Laboratory at the Olivia Newton-John Cancer Research Institute.
