Reprogramming Multi-Drug Resistance Breast Cancer for Women’s Health and Quality of Life

Research Keyword: Multi drug resistance, Cancer, Immune system, Reprogramming

A better understanding of complex and dynamic system is essential to enable us to develop therapeutic strategies that bypass MDR, and also effective ways of inhibiting MDR components to increase the efficacy of our current extensively used chemotherapies. In this research, to get real-time MDR reactive information, we will build optimized, customizable 3D microfluidic chips, set up natural conditions, such as healthy cells and reconstructed 3D tumor microenvironments (TME) use super-resolution imaging devices from a world-class imaging cluster lab.
