Patient-derived oncology NAMs for preclinical breast cancer research and therapeutic evaluation

New approach methodologies (NAMs), including advanced 3D cultures and microphysiological systems (MPS), are creating new opportunities to develop more human-relevant approaches for preclinical cancer research. However, translating these technologies from established cell lines to patient-derived tumours remains challenging because of limited tissue availability, tumour heterogeneity and variability in model establishment and performance.Building on established QUT expertise in patient-derived bioengineered breast tumour models, this project will develop robust and reproducible patient-derived oncology NAMs for preclinical breast cancer research and therapeutic evaluation.Breast …

Development of a machine learning algorithm for high throughput cell response data in drug therapy

High-throughput screening assays are essential for accelerating drug discovery, but current assays often rely on endpoint measurements that do not capture the dynamic response of cells to drug treatment. Machine learning algorithms (MLAs) have the potential to enable real-time, high-throughput monitoring of cell response to drug treatment by analyzing complex datasets generated by multiplexed live-cell assays. This research project aims to develop an MLA for enabling high throughput cell response data in drug treatment. The project will involve three main …
