Congratulations Dr. Don Nguyen, who was awarded a Department of Defense IDEA Award! The award provides 3 years of support for "conceptually innovative, high-risk/high-reward research.” With this award, Dr. Nguyen’s laboratory will explore how novel therapies can be used to prevent metastasis from lung cancer. Previously, Dr. Nguyen identified a gene regulator critical for breast cancer metastasis to the lung.
