The goal of TFL is to make novel discoveries in the biology underlying normal development and cancer initiation/progression. The group has longstanding expertise in mammalian systems with focus on normal hematopoiesis/leukemia/lymphoma, normal and malignant mammary tissues, and lineage specification in the gut, but also more recently acquired expertise in yeast genetics. Experimental approaches include genetically engineered mouse models, patient xenograft models, in vitro cell based assays, highly dimension single cell phenotyping, molecular biology/biochemistry, DNA regulation, transcriptomics, epigenetics, and DNA repair. We are currently composed of 16 Scientists overseeing approximately 50 graduate students, 35 post-doctoral fellows, and 60 additional highly qualified technical and support personnel. Together this team deploys cutting edge research strategies to tackle fundamental problems in cancer biology. We believe that excellence in training helps foster excellence in research and supporting outstanding PhD, MD and postdoctoral scientists is critical to the innovative environment in the TFL.</p></div> </article> <section class="layout layout__columns layout__parent__node group paragraph paragraph--type--columns paragraph--view-mode--default" id="paragraph--123"> <h2 class="section__title">Our Research</h2> <div class="columns columns--3"> <h2 class="section__title">Basic Research</h2> <div class="layout layout__column layout__parent__paragraph paragraph paragraph--type--column paragraph--view-mode--default" id="paragraph--120"> <img loading="lazy" src="/dept/tfl/sites/terryfoxlab.ca/files/styles/teaser/public/2019-10/shutterstock_20325178.jpg?itok=R66vOjeJ" width="600" height="450" alt="" /> <div class="field--field_paragraph_text"> <p>TFL’s focus on fundamental biological mechanisms has led to ground-breaking new insights in many areas.

We are also developing world-leading ways to automate the analysis of flow cytometry data and to analyze telomere length and the position of genome rearrangements in single cells.

Cancer Foundation with a $1M award made by the province of BC as a contribution to the original run by Terry Fox, with the additional research support of a competitive Terry Fox Program Project grant awarded by the National Cancer Institute of Canada that has been continuously maintained ever since.</div> <button class="icon" data-expand></button> <div class="field field--field_text"> <p></p><figure role="group"> <img alt="Terry Fox Lab, 1982" data-entity-type data-entity-uuid src="https://www.bccrc.ca/dept/tfl/sites/terryfoxlab.ca/files/2019-08/TFL%20Group%20Photo%201982.jpg"> <figcaption>Terry Fox laboratory, 1982</figcaption> </figure> <p>Dr. Allen Eaves (third in the front row) was the first Director and held that position for 25 years expanding its faculty to the internationally recognized group with a unique and close relationship with the Leukemia/Stem Cell Transplant Program of British Columbia and the Division of Hematology of the University of British Columbia. The Terry Fox Laboratory now comprises a faculty of 11 Scientists dedicated to many aspects of cancer research with a total staff of over 150 individuals including 85 graduate students and postdoctoral fellows, in 44,000 square feet of modern wet and dry laboratory and office space in the BC Cancer Research Centre. The Terry Fox Laboratory has many interactions with other research groups and institutions in Vancouver, across Canada and internationally. Particular assets include ready access to an enormous variety of normal and malignant human tissue that continues to be accrued on a daily basis for fundamental as well as translational and clinical studies. These provide novel opportunities for training and the rapid exchange of ideas between bench and bedside activities. Terry Fox Laboratory faculty have also spun off a number of successful companies and continue to generate novel intellectual property through patents and commercialization opportunities.</p> <p>To
