Support Our Work | Salami Lab

New research in prostate and kidney cancers holds great promise for transforming how we detect, monitor, and treat these diseases. Our team is developing non-invasive biomarkers and advanced imaging tools to better identify aggressive prostate cancers. In kidney cancer, we are studying treatment resistance and testing new therapies in ways that are directly relevant to patient care.

Additionally, our lab works to identify markers that can predict the progression of prostate cancer and we are investigating low grade prostate cancer to reduce uncertainty about disease progression and higher-risk tumors.

With the support of donors, we are able to push this work forward, with the ultimate goal of making prostate and kidney cancer care more precise, less invasive, and more effective and improving quality of life and outcomes for patients everywhere.

Donor support helps us progress in our fight against urologic cancers, and is useful to detect these diseases earlier, monitor them more precisely, and bring better treatment options to patients. Together, we can change the future of prostate and kidney cancer care.
