The Swiss Institute for Experimental Cancer Research (ISREC) at EPFL's School of Life Sciences focuses on investigating biological systems involved in cancer development, cell homeostasis, and organ development. Research includes genetically engineered mouse models of human cancer, studying resistance mechanisms to cancer therapy, and exploring signalling pathways regulating embryogenesis and organogenesis. ISREC aims to deepen the understanding of cancer biology and genetics, develop new therapeutic strategies, and contribute to the School of Life Sciences' intellectual community. Directed by Elisa Oricchio, ISREC collaborates with EPFL's Institute of Bioengineering and the Swiss Cancer Center Leman, fostering interdisciplinary research and training students at all career levels.
