We’re just beginning to understand how the patterns of how different genes are expressed or suppressed in different settings – called epigenetics – can control cancer growth and even can lead to drug resistance5.
Not all cancers are driven by direct changes to the genome. We’re just beginning to understand how the patterns of how different genes are expressed or suppressed in different settings – called epigenetics – can control cancer growth and even can lead to drug resistance5. We’ve launched several projects to better understand how we can use the learnings from epigenetics to design more effective treatments.
