PASO comprises three complementary units: Clinical Trials, Consulting Suites and Private Same Day Hospital and Infusion Centre.\u00a0 Over the years, PASO has established a well-deserved reputation as a centre of excellence for Clinical Trials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-paso-fellowship-cancer-research\">PASO Fellowship: cancer research<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A\/Prof Gough paid tribute to PASO\u2019s dedication to research and its foresight in providing this long-term commitment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s well known that lung cancer is the deadliest cancer of all and that new treatments are desperately needed,\u201d he said. \u201cThis fellowship means that my team and I can spend more time in the lab discovering and testing potential cures and less time applying for scarce funding.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Medical Director and Founder of PASO Medical, A\/Prof Vinod Ganju, added: \u201cI am thrilled to announce our collaboration with Hudson Institute. This partnership represents a significant milestone in our commitment to advancing research and innovation and leveraging our collective expertise to make meaningful contributions to cancer research and treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-better-therapeutics-for-lung-cancer\">Better therapeutics for lung cancer<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A\/Prof Gough is head of Hudson Institute\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/hudson.org.au\/research-group\/stat-cancer-biology\">Signal Transduction in Cancer Biology Research group<\/a>. They investigate the tumour-immune ecosystem, with the goal of identifying how its interactions could be manipulated to find new therapeutic approaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This group guides new treatment approaches by defining how disruption to immune signalling pathways, including those that engage the critical STAT family of proteins, alters the onset and progression of lung cancer tumours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A\/Prof Gough directly mentors a postdoctoral fellow, two PhD students (a third will commence this year), a research assistant and a bioinformatician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe team conducts the kind of discovery science that forms the building blocks of the next generation of cancer treatments. We then translate these findings into sophisticated cancer models and patient tissue samples, creating a detailed understanding of the cancer ecosystem,\u201d A\/Prof Gough said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe overarching goal of this work and the new PASO Fellowship is to use this knowledge to design better therapeutic approaches for lung cancer patients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>* <\/em><strong>Source<\/strong><em>: <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aihw.gov.au\/reports\/cancer\/cancer-data-in-australia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Australian Institute of Health and Welfare 2023 &#8211; Cancer data in Australia. <\/em><\/a><em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Associate Professor Daniel Gough has received the first ever PASO Fellowship at Hudson Institute, securing the future of his ground-breaking lung cancer research.&hellip;&nbsp;&nbsp;<a class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/hudson.org.au\/news\/paso-fellowship-cements-hudsons-lung-cancer-leadership\/\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":62630,"menu_order":0,"template":"","issue":[],"tag":[],"story-type":[],"treatment-type":[],"class_list":["post-62627","hdsn_news_post","type-hdsn_news_post","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.3 (Yoast SEO v27.3) -
