CELL616/CANB616 Advanced Topics in Cancer Biology Expectations
Spring 2012
Goals of the course
This upper level course will provide clinical insight into the clinical course, pathology, treatment, and therapeutic challenges that exist in a number of different organ-specific cancers. These clinical hallmarks and challenges are the important foundation on which novel basic science cancer research is built.
The course is designed to explore cancer mechanisms, hallmarks and novel technical approaches to unraveling underlying cancer behavior and characteristics, as well as organ-specific challenges, including current state of clinical diagnoses, treatment, prognosis and development of novel therapies. These lectures are designed to address the state of the art and to provide insight into the future of the field.
A critical aspect of the course is to provide the opportunity to basic science researchers to interact with clinical faculty. This will be accomplished through in class lectures, attendance at tumor-board, and shadowing with a clinical oncologist. We believe that this experience provides the opportunity to begin to understand the clinical challenges that can ultimately guide important discoveries in basic cancer research.
Grading policy
Your grade will be based upon three criteria:
1. Class participation (30%)
How interactive you are during the lecture
2. Your tumor board presentation (30%)
3. Final Exam (40%)
This exam is a written 2 page review of one cancer type (your choice).
Within this review you will include information addressing: background on this type of cancer, demographics, current therapies, known molecular mechanisms, molecular and animal models that exist, cutting edge research being performed to elucidate the underlying molecular pathway and/or development of novel therapeutics.

Equipped with his five senses, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science. ~Edwin Powell Hubble, The Nature of Science, 1954
