NHGRI Funds Two Centers of Excellence in Genomic Science August 2007
BETHESDA, Md., Tues., Aug. 20, 2007 - The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), today announced grants expected to total approximately $30 million to establish one new Center of Excellence in Genomic Science at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI), and continue its support of the center at Stanford University...MORE->>>

  Dana-Farber Department of Cancer Biology April 2007
Today, researchers at the three-year-old Center for Cancer Systems Biology (CCSB), part of the Dana Farber Cancer Institute (DFCI) in Boston, are working toward identifying the high level “wiring diagram” for cancer. In this instance, that means an accurate map of all cancer-associated protein-protein interactions...MORE->>>

  Dana-Farber Department of Cancer Biology 8/11/05
Boston, MA - August 11, 2005 - A Boston researcher's work, which may just be the next big thing in biology, is set to be published today in the journal Nature. Two years ago, the landmark Human Genome Project, mapped all the genes in humans. But the research out today goes one step further by looking at how those genes interact. WBUR's Allan Coukell reports. MORE->>>

Dana-Farber Department of Cancer Biology 4/14/05
The Department of Cancer Biology is the home of basic science at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. We attack fundamental problems in biology that underlie the problem of human cancer. Our discovery-oriented research has contributed in important ways to the conceptual... MORE->>>

New DFCI Center Takes on Lofty Goal of Mapping Complete Set of Gene Interactions within Human Cells
2/24/04
With a draft of the human genome map now in hand, a group of Dana-Farber researchers is moving to the next frontier in molecular research: a study of the interactions among the estimated 30,000 genes in human cells. At DFCI's newly opened Center for Cancer Systems... MORE->>>
