\u201cAt UT Tyler, we\u2019re committed to advancing research that can save lives,\u201d interim dean of UT Tyler Fisch College of Pharmacy Dr. Pamella Ochoa said. \u201cThis NIH grant not only affirms the excellence of our faculty but also highlights our continued role in driving scientific innovation that can benefit East Texas and beyond.\u201d<\/p>\n
1 in 10 adults has received a cancer diagnosis, according to UT Tyler. Dr. Santosh Aryal\u2019s and Dr. Farah Deba\u2019s research will focus on using immune system cells to target cancer with nanotechnology.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy combining advanced nanotechnology with immune cell biology, Doctors Aryal and Deba are paving the way for more precise and personalized cancer treatments that could transform how we approach cancer care,\u201d Dr. Rahmat M. Talukder said.<\/p>\n
Their project will offer students hands-on experience with cancer research in real time by assisting in data collection, experimental design, gaining critical thinking skills and problem-solving skills.<\/p>\n
\u201cOne of the most rewarding aspects of this grant is the learning experiences it creates for students,\u201d Aryal said. \u201cUndergraduate students in biology, engineering, nursing and chemistry, pharmacy students and post-doctoral students will all be involved in this project, contributing to the future of health care outcomes nationally and worldwide.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
