To find a cure for breast cancer we must fund new ideas

With this in mind, we are thrilled to introduce three new grant recipients!

The Lynn Sage Breast Cancer Foundation recently granted three doctors funding. Their projects and values align with our mission to raise funds for research and education to prevent breast cancer and improve outcomes for individuals with breast cancer.

Please meet Drs. Chen, Liu and Stemple.

Peiwen Chen, PhD

Assistant Professor & Neurological Surgery, Lurie Cancer Center of Northwestern University

Dr. Chen will employ integrated strategies to reveal whether and how TAM reprogramming contributes to breast cancer brain metastasis. He also plans to determine how TAM reprogramming can synergize with immune checkpoint inhibitors to suppress brain metastasis of breast cancer.

Huiping Liu, MD, PhD

Associate Professor, Pharmacology, Lurie Cancer Center of Northwestern University

Dr. Liu is working to advance breakthrough technologies, apply unprecedented single-cell mass spectrometry to breast cancer research, and target circulating tumor stem cells that mediate metastasis. Her ultimate goal is to synergize bedside and bench discoveries for development of new biomarkers and novel therapeutics.

Lisa Stempel, MD

Assistant Professor, Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, Rush University

Dr. Stempel is focused on automating methods to continuously measure breast cancer detection rates for different types of breast imaging. This is an important quality measure of any breast cancer screening program. She will then compare the cancer detection rates for different risk-based sub-populations and use this data to refine local screening recommendations. This novel approach could have a significant impact on the future of breast cancer screening research and guideline development.
