Geneticist and bioengineer, Dr. Marc Vidal of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, has been researching the fundamental relationships between cellular systems and human disease trying to crack the code. In recent years, scientists have found that marine organisms might have the answer we are looking for. GMGI’s Donald G. Comb Science Director Dr. Andrea Bodnar specializes in using sea urchins as a model for understanding healthy aging and cancer resistance. Join Dr. Vidal and Dr. Bodnar as they discuss the current state of cancer therapeutics and how sea urchins can help find cutting edge solutions. Come discover how marine genomics gives us insight into the future of cancer research. Enjoy cocktails and hors d'oeuvres as you learn and get a chance to tour our institute's laboratories with GMGI researchers! Doors open at 5:30pm, presentation begins at 6pm.
