Welcome to the website for Basic Research of the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University. Cancer research is broadly defined as those endeavors that shed light on the causes and cures for the complicated disease entities that result in unrestrained cell growth. The Basic Research division of Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center of Northwestern University includes faculty who investigate all aspects of cell function from misappropriated extracellular matrix to nuclear transcription factors, from biomaterials to cutting edge imaging techniques, and from prognostics, diagnostics, to therapeutics. The purpose of this bulletin is to keep you, the basic research scientist, appraised of the work that your colleagues are doing as well as to inform you of important resources that the Robert H. Lurie Comprehensive Cancer Center supports to make Northwestern University an unique environment for breakthroughs in our understanding of normal cellular processes and high impact investigations leading to better and longer lives for all of us.
