转化生物学，医学和健康癌症哲学博士

对于癌症研究人员来说，这是一个充满希望的时代，因为最近的分子生物学进展，例如解码各种癌症基因组和识别关键信号通路，增强了我们对癌细胞的了解，并为新疗法和诊断工具打开了大门。癌症重点领域的学生将对通过研究抗击癌症感兴趣。从肿瘤细胞的分子生物学基础（包括遗传学，干细胞，侵袭和转移，免疫监视）到诊断和治疗（生物标志物，药物设计，筛查，个性化），课程将对肿瘤疾病的各个方面采取综合，转化的方法医学，外科手术方法）及其社会，心理和经济后果。
This is a promising time for cancer researchers as recent advances in molecular biology and genomics, such as decoding of diverse cancer genomes and identification of key molecular processes and signaling pathways, have enhanced our understanding of cancer cells, and opened the door for the development of new therapies and diagnostic tools. Students in the cancer focus area will be interested in combating cancer through research. Coursework will take an integrative, translational approach to all aspects of neoplastic disease, from its basis in molecular cell biology (including genetics, stem cells, invasion and metastasis, and immune surveillance) to an integrative view of the tumor environment and novel cancer diagnosis and treatment tools (biomarkers, drug design, screening, and personalized medicine), as well as its social, psychological, and economic consequences.
