In an unpretentious lab on the Fresno State campus, Dr. Jason Bush, professor of biology, is looking for ways to target biological mechanisms that fuel cancer.

"Personalized medicine is the way of the future," said Jason. "It's about really understanding you, your own genetics, and the genetics of the cancer to help refine the treatment."
