Scientists develop powerful new animal model for metastatic prostate cancer

Prostate cancer is the most common form of cancer in men, yet research has been stymied by imperfect animal models of the disease. Now, CSHL scientists have developed a new method to rapidly create much better mouse models for the most lethal, terminal events of metastatic prostate cancer. This discovery allows scientists to investigate the causes of the disease while at the same time testing new therapeutics to treat it.
