Yeo Laboratory
The Yeo Laboratory conducts groundbreaking translational research to develop new treatments for patients with solid tumors. We focus on understanding cancer at the molecular level to enable non-invasive monitoring, identify effective therapies, and evaluate novel therapeutic approaches.
About the Yeo Laboratory
Through extensive clinical collaborations, the Yeo Laboratory develops patient-derived models (3D organoids) and liquid biopsy biomarkers (circulating tumour cells), to enable non-invasive real time monitoring and evaluation of innovative cancer therapies such as targeted and cellular immunotherapies. The Yeo Lab hopes to unravel the complexities of individual variabilities and cancer drivers to tailor treatments in a personalised/precision approach in a clinically relevant manner.
