Biomedical Research
Basic and Translational Research Leading to Medical Innovation
Biomedical researchers at John Theurer Cancer Center and throughout Hackensack University Medical Center are delving into the fundamental mechanisms by which cells operate in normal tissues and how those processes may go awry in disease. Bolstered by exceptional resources such as tissue repositories, a tumor registry, bioinformatic tools to analyze “big data,” and the Department of Biological Resources, our investigators are well equipped to make progress against cancer and other diseases—bringing advances from the lab to the clinic with the goal of improving patient outcomes.
