Title: A Novel Xenotransplantation Mouse to Study Breast Cancer Resistance/Susceptibility Mechanisms
Project Amount: $24,000
Project Period: February 2020 to January 2021
DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant):
The goal of this project is to establish a novel xenotransplantation mouse model that will allow us to recapitulate the mammary gland environment of these (and other) mammals in a controlled and uniform experimental system that is suitable for both manipulation and analysis.
