Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the deadliest cancers, with limited treatment options and a high recurrence rate. Emerging research suggests that the tumor microenvironment (TME) and metastatic site play a critical role in therapy response. In this webinar, Yana Zavros will discuss how she combined spatial biology and patient-derived organoids (PDOs) to uncover a distinct cell population driving therapy resistance and disease recurrence in PDAC.
Topics to be covered:
- Mapping the TME across metastatic sites to guide treatment strategies
- Using spatial biology and PDOs to identify therapy-resistant cell populations in PDAC
- An introduction to high throughput multiplex immunofluorescence for TME characterization
Tuesday, May 6th, 2025 | 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM Eastern Time
This webinar will be available to view live and on demand.
