For decades, scientists have studied the genetic and molecular features of cancers, offering important but limited insights. Advances in spatial biology, functional genomics, big data, and AI are making it possible to study cancer at the individual cell level. To capitalize on these advances, UT MD Anderson Cancer Center is launching the Center for Cellular Language Intelligence, thanks to generous support from Peggy and Carl Sewell. The center's mission is clear: unlock the complex communications that govern tumor ecosystems to unlock a new generation of treatments.
The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center today announced a $10 million gift from Peggy and Carl Sewell to establish the Center for Cellular Language Intelligence, a groundbreaking new research center created to understand the behavior of cancer cells at an unprecedented resolution, enabling...
