Improving Cancer Patient Care: Salve Regina University

Salve Regina University biology professor Dr. Jillian Wise’s research is focused on improving cancer patient care by developing computational tools that analyze cancer cells from blood samples, eliminating the need for invasive surgeries. Partnering with Mass General’s pioneering microfluidics lab and utilizing an innovative technique called single-cell RNA sequencing to understand chemotherapy resistance and cancer relapse, she and her undergraduate students are working to advance personalized medicine for pediatric brain cancers – a historically underserved area in clinical research.
