Scientists from the BC Cancer Agency and Pfizer Oncology have published the first results of their three-year research collaboration. The paper, published in the journal Modern Pathology, analyzed the expression of the P-cadherin protein in breast cancer. P-cadherin is involved in controlling the development and function of the normal mammary gland, but may also play […]
The world is facing a shortage of the key medical isotope Technetium-99m (Tc-99m). More than 80% of the estimated 1.5 million nuclear medicine procedures performed annually in Canada use radiopharmaceuticals based on this isotope, which is currently produced using nuclear reactors. Together with TRIUMF and other partners, the BC Cancer Agency (BCCA) has received a […]
