HMN 2026: How Hidden cell ‘message route’ could shift cancer research
A new discovery, featuring our faculty member Dr. Ben Myers, sheds light on the Hedgehog pathway, a key player in cell growth and cancer development. Researchers revealed a unique molecular mechanism that differs from previous models, providing crucial structural insights. With insights from Dr. Alana Welm, Chair of the Department of Oncological Sciences, this breakthrough enhances our understanding of how this pathway works, paving the way for more precise and effective cancer therapies, especially for common cancers like basal cell carcinoma and pediatric brain tumors.
