Cell-instructive matrices to deconstruct tumour tissues

Objective

This research addresses a clinical problem with an innovative approach. Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest cancers and only 10% of patients survive 5 years after diagnosis. To find better therapies, we need patient-specific models that mimic the biology of tumour tissues and target interactions between different cell types. We will develop a controllable platform for modelling the human disease in the laboratory. We will use our new platform to discover better ways of treating the disease.
