Sciencestanding
Nowadays, the needs of oncologists have changed. They need to know more about genetics, the cell cycle, proliferation signaling pathways, the immune system, angiogenesis or metastasis to understand the mechanism of action of anti-target agents, given alone or in combination with chemotherapy, as well as the benefits of immunotherapy on cancer treatment.
This group of 10 courses can be accessed as a complete unit or individually, and offers a biological perspective of carcinogenesis based on the hallmarks of cancer as well as the mechanism of action of treatments, described visually with 3D animation videos.
Learning outcomes:
• Understand the processes involved in carcinogenesis and the molecular basis of anticancer treatments.
• Gain valuable knowledge about what fundamental research is providing on the origin and development of cancer.
• Knowledge about anticancer immune response and immune escape mechanisms, as well as the molecular mechanisms of immunotherapy.
