Dr. Gurcan has been awarded an American Cancer Society Ohio Division Supported Pilot Grant for beginning researchers to engage in basic, clinical, or behavioral/cancer control research. For this project entitled "Computer-aided clinical image analysis for cutaneous lymphomas," Dr. Gurcan will work with Drs. Porcu, Wong and Pennell to develop a system to analyze cutaneous lymphomas. http://www.cancer.org/docroot/COM/content/div_OH/COM_7_2x_Ohio_Grant_Recipients.asp

This project is part of Dr. Gurcan’s ongoing efforts to produce accurate and reproducible tools to distinguish discrete subsets of human cancers and to standardize measurements of response after therapy, which are essential for translational and clinical research.
