BW/F ramps up personalized medicine
Our Profile project, run in tandem with the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, is the most ambitious initiative of its kind, taking samples of patients’ cancer tumors and scanning for the genetic aberrations that are linked to cancer in each tumor. With this testing, scientists can determine almost 500 different genetic mutations in 46 identifiable cancer genes.
Your donation of $100 or more will qualify you to receive Brigham and Women’s magazine so you can read more about innovative programs like Profile as we continue to transform healthcare at Brigham and Women’s Hospital. Donate now.
