Award for research on tumor microenvironment in low grade glioma progression, funded by NCI, involving spatial molecular profiling and collaboration between UCLA and Caltech.
Description
The project focuses on constructing a spatial atlas of low-grade gliomas to understand molecular and cellular mechanisms predictive of malignant transformation. The project involves spatial transcriptomics, proteomics, and chromosomal profiling. The project is funded by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) under the NIH. The project duration is from September 2024 to August 2029. The project involves multiple principal investigators and collaboration between UCLA and Caltech.
