Summary
Cell Identity and Signaling (CIS) Research Program Project Summary The key scientific goals of the Cell Identity and Signaling (CIS) Research Program are to advance discovery of novel molecular mechanisms of cell identity and cell signaling, to apply this knowledge towards understanding cancer pathogenesis, and to use this knowledge to develop novel, mechanism-based approaches to prevent or interfere with cancer cell growth, aiming for cancer solutions. It is well-established that cancer cells hijack normal regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and embryonic development, via genetic an
