Located in Boston and the surrounding communities, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute is a leader in life changing breakthroughs in cancer research and patient care. We are united in our mission of conquering cancer, HIV/AIDS, and related diseases.

We conduct groundbreaking research that advances treatment, we educate tomorrow's physician/researchers, and we work with amazing partners, including other Harvard Medical School-affiliated hospitals.
Carmen Gonzalez will collaborate with the team to optimize the isolation of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) from samples collected from patients with precursor conditions of multiple myeloma, including monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) and smoldering multiple myeloma (SMM). Her research will focus on refining sample selection methods and analyzing them using flow cytometry. The overall goal of this work is to develop a reliable and reproducible approach of CTC isolation in these disease states. This will enable robust downstream applications, including characterization of the genomic and transcriptomic profiles of these cells and development of improved disease monitoring strategies.
