About PRIME-TR

PRIME-TR aims to be a pioneer in transforming cancer therapy through the modulation of the human microbiome. Our mission is to build a robust framework that enables a concerted effort for translational research by leveraging existing resources at our institution and by developing programs and relationships to support novel translational applications. Our ultimate goal is to improve prevention, diagnosis and treatment strategies for cancer patients and the population at-risk. Succeeding at this vision would result in the ability to prevent and treat a wider population via novel and better strategies based on microbiome applications. Our program is envisioned to grow to a self-sustainable and dedicated team to promote and support translational microbiome research within MD Anderson.

We have assembled working groups in key areas of development. Each working group is composed of leading experts in each field with affiliated members. The mission and milestones for each working group are defined by leads. Our working groups meet monthly with support from PRIME-TR leadership.
