  • Summary

  • Welcome to "The Science Of" Podcast, where students from the Jackie Robinson Family YMCA sit down with top scientists, doctors, and other leaders in the world of science from the globally renowned UCSD and the UCSD Moores Cancer Center in La Jolla, CA.

    In this episode, Riley James, Haydee Arancibia-Hardwick, and Margaux Stack-Babich sit down to discuss THE SCIENCE OF CANCER CELL SIGNALING with Dr. Matt Hangauer, the Principal Investigator of the Hangauer Lab at UC San Diego as well as an Assistant Professor with the UCSD Department of Dermatology. The Hangauer Lab explores the biology of cancer persister cells, a prevalent yet poorly understood subpopulation of cancer cells that reversibly enter into a quiescent, pro-survival cell state to survive drug treatments. By uncovering the molecular mechanisms of key events such as drug stress-induced mutagenesis, survival of CD8 T cell attack, and suppression of apoptosis, the Hangauer Lab seeks to identify novel therapeutic targets to prevent acquired resistance.
