Time 12:00 13:00
Location Lille Anatomisk aud. build. 1231-424

Abstract
Today’s seminar will focus of the research in our group addressing biomedical questions related to non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) diagnosis and treatment. A recently developed epigenetics-based cancer diagnostic method using patient blood plasma will be discussed. Moreover, our recently initiated projects related to NSCLC immunotherapy will be briefly described, as well as progress and drawbacks in our descriptive and mechanistic molecular genetic studies of intrinsic and acquired resistance towards EGFR signaling-pathway targeted therapy with tyrosine kinase inhibitors.

Venue: The seminar will be held at 12:00 pm in Lille Anatomisk Auditorium, 1231-424. Talks will be 45 min in duration followed by 15 minutes of discussion.

It is possible to sign-up for a free sandwich no later than 30 September.
