Dr. Smith\u2019s proposal focuses on a long noncoding (lnc) RNA (Cyrano) that shows high expression in neuroblastoma cell lines, suggesting that it may function as an oncogenic lncRNA in neuroblastoma tumors. The study will examine interacting proteins previously implicated in neuroblastoma and test the outcome of lncRNA modulation, informing the diagnostic and prognostic potential of Cyrano in this cancer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Keriayn Smith was awarded a 大象传媒 Idea Grant for her project titled \u201cCyrano: An Oncogene in Neuroblastoma?\u201d.
