Rubenstein Professor of Oncology at the Johns Hopkins Kimmel Cancer Center and principal investigator of the grant. "Now, we are pooling our knowledge and resources to solve important problems plaguing every cancer patient of whether their disease will return and how to fight the spreading disease."
