Research
Programs
The three distinct yet complementary research
programs at The Wistar Institute are the Gene Expression and Regulation
Program, the Molecular and Cellular Oncogenesis Program, and the Immunology
Program. Gene Expression and Regulation
Aim: To explore cancer and other diseases at the
level of individual genes and gene systems, including investigations
of the molecular mechanisms of gene regulation.
Molecular and Cellular Oncogenesis
- Cancer
Biology Division
Aim: To understanding how specific molecular
events and cellular interactions manifest themselves in cancer,
supported by the tools of systems biology.
- Systems Biology Division
Aim: To develop comprehencsive,
global perspectives on cancer development and progression.
Immunology
Aim: To investigate immune-system responses to
cancer and other diseases, with major efforts directed toward the
development of vaccines and immunotherapies.
