Angeline Andrew Winner of Cancer Research Fellowship
Angeline
Andrew, Post-doctoral Research Associate, is the recipient of the Cancer Prevention
Research Fellowship sponsored by American Society of Preventive Oncology (ASPO)
and the Cancer Research Foundation of America (CRFA) and funded by CRFA. The
objectives of this research project are to determine whether expression of
DNA repair genes is associated with bladder cancer risk, to identify specific
DNA repair genes that may modify this risk, to further elucidate the underlying
mechanisms of bladder carcinogenesis and to determine the role of arsenic
in this process. The two-year award carries a stipend of $30,000 a year. She
will attend the American Society of Preventive Oncology's annual conference
in Bethesda in March to receive the award.
The American Society of Preventive Oncology (ASPO), now 25 years old, is a
multidisciplinary society that serves as an advocate for research on cancer
prevention and control.
