Title

Role of Notch in proliferation and apoptosis of ductal carcinoma in situ

Synopsis

This project will hopefully provide the information to develop new treatments to prevent the recurrence or spread of pre-invasive breast cancer.

Aims & Goals

This project may determine whether inhibiting the Notch signalling pathway is therapeutically useful for the treatment of DCIS. Consequently, this project has the possibility of introducing a new treatment strategy into the clinic.
