Our multidisciplinary team of clinicians and scientists explores avenues of early detection, including investigations into genetic, environmental, and lifestyle links to pancreatic and related cancers. One very exciting avenue of continued exploration is the novel approach to individualized therapy, based upon specific molecular genetic features of the tumor. The team integrates surgery with oncology, pathology, pharmacology, gastroenterology, pain management, palliative care, genetics and nursing.

This page highlights the faculty and staff, who are on the forefront of such research at Jefferson, and the advances and current discoveries in pancreatic research made by those individuals now at Jefferson.
