APCRC-Q Research Shines at IHBI Gala Dinner
Ms Stylianou’s presentation showcased her research into finding new therapies to block prostate cancer from spreading to other parts of the body (metastasis).
Ms Stylianou explained that her research involved developing cellular models which will facilitate investigation into cancer metastasis. From the study of this process she hopes to identify critical therapeutic targets that could be used to develop better targeted therapies against prostate cancer metastasis.
