Abstract
How do tumors develop despite the body’s defenses? Why can the body stop some tumors from forming but not others? What makes cancerous cells live longer than normal cells and wreak havoc on the body? And how can we fight these processes? Kansas State University researchers are searching for answers to these questions and more through the interdisciplinary Johnson Cancer Research Center in the College of Arts and Sciences. The center’s faculty members span 20 departments in five colleges. They work to better understand cancer and find ways to prevent it, detect it earlier and treat it more successfully, while also training the next generation of scientists.
