Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Margaret R Smith"
- Margaret R. Smith's recent research focuses predominantly on understanding the mechanisms of cancer metastasis, particularly in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), as well as the role of genomic profiling in discovering biomarkers for various cancer conditions.
- Key findings include the identification of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) as prognostic indicators for metastatic cancer, as well as the exploration of genomic signatures associated with oligometastatic disease in NSCLC patients with brain metastases.
- Additionally, her studies address the interplay between immune responses and tumor genetics, investigating how mutations and histological grading systems can predict disease progression and treatment outcomes in lung cancer patients.
