Aim 3. Validation of transcriptional drivers and therapeutic combinations in CRPC. Rationale and strategy: To experimentally validate computationally predicted drivers of CRPC, we will use loss- and gain-of-function approaches for in vitro (i.e., cell lines) and in vivo (i.e., xenograft models) experimental validation to determine whether these genes are essential for drug-resistance. Computationally inferred drug combinations will be validated for their effect on MRs’ activity and ability to…

It seems like anytime I get behind the wheel of a car, something somewhere in the universe decides to test me once again. However, despite being a firsthand witness to my awful luck, I also astonish myself every time I experience these situations with how I handle and learn from them. This is one of those times.
