New Virtual Institute to study CLL

[Guest guest]

A new 'Virtual Institute' will start August first and bring

together researchers in the UK, Denmark and Germany to study

programmed cell death in CLL.

" Coordinated by the German Cancer Research Center (Deutsches

Krebsforschungszentrum, DKFZ) and the University of Ulm,

scientists are collaborating in a new Helmholtz Virtual

Institute to study how leukemia cells become resistant to

programmed cell death and to chemotherapy.

Their aim is to find out how this resistance can be overcome

in order to facilitate better cancer treatment. "
