New Directions in the Treatment of Breast Cancer: Bringing Biology to the Clinic and Back

New scientific advances have rapidly transformed the approach to breast cancer. In our next Grand Rounds, Hope Rugo, MD, professor of Clinical Medicine and director of Breast Oncology and Clinical Trials Education, will examine how differences in breast tumor biology can inform treatment decisions and methods of drug delivery. These advances are revolutionizing our approach to this, the most common cancer in the world.
