This course will cover the underlying molecular and cellular biology involved in carcinogenesis, tumor growth, and metastasis. The latest concepts in cancer biology and cancer therapeutics and a general appreciation of the rapid advances made in this area of biomedicine will be discussed. Certain topics such as cellular processes in cancer initiation and progression, modelling of different types of cancers in the laboratory, the genetic landscape of human cancers and novel therapeutics which target individual tumors based upon genetic signature will also be discussed. Additionally, this course aims to arm beginning graduate students with a working understanding of different cutting-edge methods that are being used to answer key questions in cancer biology and therapeutics.
