Janice L Brissette · Brooklyn, New York
Dr. Janice L. Brissette's lab at SUNY Downstate Medical Center focuses on improving cancer treatment by developing a novel diagnostic biomarker to predict patient responses to specific breast cancer therapies. The lab investigates how changes in the protein p27Kip1 can indicate whether patients with metastatic breast cancer will benefit from CDK4/6 inhibitors, which are crucial for managing certain breast cancers. The research aims to make cancer treatments more effective and personalized.
