Understanding Precision Oncology & Metastatic Breast Cancer
From DNA to Protein: Understanding the Central Dogma
Learn how the information stored in DNA is used to make RNA and proteins. This basic process helps explain how our genes control the way cells function and what can happen when these processes are disrupted.
The Cell Cycle and Cancer
Discover how cells normally grow and divide through a carefully controlled process called the cell cycle. This video explains how changes in this process can cause cells to grow uncontrollably and contribute to cancer development.
Understanding Cancer: The Basics
An introduction to what cancer is, how it develops, and how cancer cells differ from normal cells. This video provides a helpful foundation for understanding cancer biology and treatment.
What is Metastasis?
Learn how cancer cells can spread from the original tumor to other parts of the body. This video introduces the process of metastasis and why understanding cancer spread is important for cancer care and treatment.
Breast Cancer Staging
Learn what the different stages of breast cancer mean and how they describe the extent and spread of the disease.
Understanding Gene Mutations in Breast Cancer
Breast cancer can be associated with different types of genetic mutations. Some mutations are inherited and can increase a person’s risk of developing breast cancer, while others develop within cancer cells over time. Leasrn about how testing for certain mutations can help guide treatment decisions.
Understanding Omics
Learn about genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and other types of “omics” used to study biology and disease. These approaches allow researchers to examine different layers of information within a tumor and can help us better understand what makes each cancer unique.
