Professor of Biomedical Engineering Deb Kelly hopes to 'outsmart breast cancer'

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. One of the pioneering researchers in the fight against breast cancer is Deb Kelly, professor of biomedical engineering and director of the Center for Structural Oncology at Penn State.

Penn State researchers analyze breast cancer data for the Center for Structural Oncology and the Penn State Department of Biomedical Engineering in a lab in the Chemical and Biomedical Engineering Building. They include Madison C. Evans (left), undergraduate researcher in biomedical engineering and Schreyer Scholar; GM Jonaid (center), doctoral candidate in bioinformatics and genomics at the Huck Institutes of the Life Sciences; and Deb Kelly (right), professor of biomedical engineering and director of the Center for Structural Oncology (CSO).
