CellTechs invites Dr Chao for a talk on cancer stem cells

CellTechs is pleased to welcome Dr. Chi – Hong Chao (趙啟宏), from NCTU University in Taiwan, who will present to the students participating in the Summer School « Stem Cells & DNA Engineering » the work of his laboratory on the exciting subject of the relationship between cancer stem cells, epithelial-mesenchymal transition, miRNAs, and cancer cell metabolism,  based on the breast cancer model.

Dr Chao and  his colleague  Cheng-Han Hsieh.

Thursday 28 June 2018, 9:30 –  « Summer School » classroom
