Public Evening Lecture series
The CCSB holds Spring and Fall Public Evening Lectures to inform the community, patients, friends, and peers about ongoing efforts in Cancer Systems Biology and how they apply to the general public. The aim of these lectures is to communicate science in layman's terms and thus excite our neighbors about our work.
The public evening lecture series is part of the Center of Cancer Systems
Biology (CCSB) outreach and education effort funded by the National Cancer
Institute's Integrative Cancer Biology Program (ICBP). The CCSB
based at Steward St. Elizabeth's Medical Center, Tufts University School of
Medicine in Boston, USA brings together diverse researchers to
better understand the molecular and tissue-level events underlying
the evolution and progression of cancer. The team of lab
investigators and research staff assembled at the CCSB is working
to develop novel quantitative and qualitative approaches to the
problem of cancer, both at the molecular and at the systems
level.
