Partners in Science (IMAGE) Princeton University Caption From left, Princeton scientists Hilary Coller and Joshua Rabinowitz, in collaboration with Eileen White of the Cancer Institute of New Jersey and Rutgers University, are using a variety of scientific techniques to explore how some cancer cells self-cannibalize and go dormant to tolerate extreme stress. Funded by a $1 million National Institutes of Health Challenge Grant through the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, the project may lead to new treatment regimes that inhibit this ability and kill cancer cells while allowing normal cells to survive.
