中文简介:
在本课程中,我们将研究癌症与正常发展之间的相似性,以了解肿瘤如何利用正常的发展过程来促进癌症的发生、维持和发展。我们将研究控制这些过程的关键信号通路,重要的是,其中一些通路如何有望成为癌症治疗的靶点。我们将讨论如何将未来的治疗个性化,以针对特定患者的癌细胞。我们还将考虑一些新批准的药物的例子,这些药物极大地帮助病人战胜了这种毁灭性的疾病。这门课程是麻省理工学院生物系提供的许多高等本科生研讨会之一。这些研讨会是为有兴趣利用初级研究文献在高度互动的环境中讨论和学习当前生物研究的学生而设计的。许多本科生高级研讨会的讲师都是对教学有浓厚兴趣的博士后科学家。
课程简介: During this course, we will study the similarities between cancer and normal development to understand how tumors co-opt normal developmental processes to facilitate cancer initiation, maintenance and progression. We will examine critical signaling pathways that govern these processes and, importantly, how some of these pathways hold promise as therapeutic targets for cancer treatment. We will discuss how future treatments might be personalized to target cancer cells in specific patients. We will also consider examples of newly-approved drugs that have dramatically helped patients combat this devastating disease. This course is one of many Advanced Undergraduate Seminars offered by the Biology Department at MIT. These seminars are tailored for students with an interest in using primary research literature to discuss and learn about current biological research in a highly interactive setting. Many instructors of the Advanced Undergraduate Seminars are postdoctoral scientists with a strong interest in teaching.
