Treatment Resistant Cancers02:56

Treatment Resistant Cancers

3.5K
Cancer is the second leading cause of death in the United States. A cancer cell is genetically unstable and hence can mutate faster. They can also modify their microenvironment and escape immune surveillance. The difficulties in treating cancer are further compounded by the emergence of rapid resistance to anticancer drugs. The most common ways to attain resistance in cancer cells include alteration in drug transport and metabolism, modification of drug target, elevated DNA damage response, or...

Mouse Models of Cancer Study

5.9K
Mice have long served as models for studying human biology and pathology because of their phylogenetic and physiological similarity with humans. They are also easy to maintain and breed in the laboratory, and hence, many inbred strains are now available for research. Studies on mice have contributed immeasurably to our understanding of cancer biology.
The development of transgenic, knockout, and knock-in mice has led to an exponential increase in their use as model organisms in research,...

Cancer02:18

Cancer

51.1K
Cancers arise due to mutations in genes involved in the regulation of cell division, which leads to unrestricted cell proliferation. Modern science and medicine have made great strides in the understanding and treatment of cancer, including eradicating cancer in some patients. However, there is still no cure for cancer. This is largely due to the fact that cancer is a large group of many diseases.

Cancer Prevention02:59

Cancer Prevention

7.1K
Several factors can increase the risk of cancer in an individual. About 50% of cancer cases can be prevented by adopting a healthy lifestyle, regular exercise, eating healthy, and following a modest cancer prevention diet. Epidemiological studies have consistently shown that populations with vegetable and fruit-rich diets have reduced the incidence of cancer. On the other hand, populations who have a diet rich in animal fat, red meat, junk food, or high calories are predisposed to cancer.

Targeted Cancer Therapies02:57

Targeted Cancer Therapies

8.0K
The targeted cancer therapies, also known as “molecular targeted therapies,” take advantage of the molecular and genetic differences between the cancer cells and the normal cells. It needs a thorough understanding of the cancer cells to develop drugs that can target specific molecular aspects that drive the growth, progression, and spread of cancer cells without affecting the growth and survival of other normal cells in the body.
There are several types of targeted therapies against...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health
  • Cancer Epidemiology
  • Global Health Education

Background:

  • Mentoring is crucial for research capacity building in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
  • The Cancer Epidemiology Education in Special Populations (CEESP) Program provides a framework for global research training.
  • Effective mentoring is essential for advancing cancer research in underserved regions.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To illustrate general concepts of mentoring in LMICs within public health research.
  • To describe the student selection, mentoring, and site preparation processes of the CEESP Program's global component.
  • To provide recommendations for enhancing mentoring skills and disseminating best practices in global cancer education.

Main Methods:

  • Review of mentoring experiences within the CEESP Program in LMICs.
  • Description of student recruitment and training protocols.
  • Analysis of site preparation and support structures for mentoring.

Main Results:

  • The CEESP Program successfully trains students in cancer epidemiology in global settings.
  • Key elements for successful mentoring include structured selection, dedicated mentorship, and prepared sites.
  • Mentoring in LMICs requires tailored approaches to address specific challenges.

Conclusions:

  • Effective mentoring programs can significantly enhance public health research capacity in LMICs.
  • The CEESP Program model offers valuable insights for institutions seeking to improve global cancer education.
  • Recommendations are provided to strengthen mentoring skills and promote knowledge dissemination in international research collaborations.
