Description:

Creating novel devices for cancer detection and monitoring Early detection and monitoring is critical to mounting effective cancer treatments. The molecular differences that make cancer cells lethal when left unchecked also provide the clues for their detection, identification and visualization. NCI-designated cancer center As a National Cancer Institute-designated center for four decades, and as one of only seven NCI-designated basic research centers, MIT is at the center of the nation's efforts to conquer cancer. Koch Institute Public Galleries Visitors to the Koch Institute Public Galleries can explore current cancer research projects, examine striking biomedical images, hear personal reflections on cancer and cancer research and investigate the historical, geographical and scientific contexts out of which the Koch Institute emerged. Swanson Biotechnology Center These 14 shared biotechnology laboratories provide state-of-the-art tools and specialized expertise to Koch Institute researchers, while also bringing together scientists and engineers to foster interdisciplinary collaboration. Research at the Koch Institute The Koch Institute brings scientists and engineers together to solve the problems of cancer.  We have identified five areas of research that we believe are critical for rapid progress toward controlling cancer. People In creating a new era for cancer research, the Koch Institute’s greatest assets are its people. Our world renowned faculty unites leadership in multiple fields of science and engineering with a commitment to truly interdisciplinary collaboration. Outreach The Koch Institute engages public audiences of all ages and backgrounds in current cancer research through a variety of public events, youth outreach programs, and online resources about new cancer solutions. Counting Your Antigens A team led by White Lab grad student Lauren Stopfer developed a tool that may help researchers and clinicians make cancer immunotherapies more effective: a platform that precisely quantifies the number of antigens presented on cell surfaces. more... Learn more about how the Love lab is using miniature microtiter plates and microfluidics to evaluate populations of cells, maximize their productivity, and ultimately improve the process of developing cancer biologics.With your support, we aim to improve the lives of cancer patients. Our expert cancer biologists and engineers work in tandem to tackle today's most challenging cancer problems and deliver solutions that lead to longer, healthier lives.Your contributions can make a difference in the fight against cancer. We welcome your help to continue our progress.How you can help Center of Cancer Nanotechnology ExcellenceThe MIT-Harvard Center for Cancer Nanotechnology Excellence is a collaborative effort among MIT, Harvard University, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Brigham and Women's Hospital. moreThe Bridge Project is a collaboration between the Koch Institute and the Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC), designed to bring bioengineering and clinical oncology together to solve today’s most challenging problems in cancer research and care.Learn more Join us for a series of evening programs that bring together diverse expert perspectives to discuss emerging cancer solutions.Learn more
