A Researcher’s Why and How: Andrew Goldstein, PhD
Andrew Goldstein’s research goal is to uncover the cellular and molecular changes that initiate prostate cancer, causing cancer progression and resistance to treatment. In this video, he discusses how his lab uses normal human prostate tissue samples to study the factors that determine if prostate tumors will be fast- or slow-growing. He hopes this information will help doctors predict if tumors will be fast-growing so that they and their patients can make more informed treatment decisions. Watch Video >
