Brief description Melanoma is the most aggressive skin cancer and is highly therapy resistant, reasons of which are poorly understood. Here we hypothesise that differences in the growth capacity of melanoma cells in different tumour regions contribute to therapy resistance. We will use a novel microscopic system that allows us to visualise division of individual melanoma cells in intact tumours in real time. Using this system, we will test the effects of targeted therapies on melanoma cell growth and survival.
