Quantifying drug response in cancer using 4D using Oblique Plane Microscopy and Optical Coherence Tomography

MRC Laboratory of Medical Sciences (LMS)
Postgraduate Studies
Heterogeneity in drug response is a confounder to successful cancer treatment. Even within genetically identical populations, cells respond differently to drugs due to factors including stochasticity in gene expression, cell cycle phase/state and the environment. Read more
