Description: When Arizona U.S. Sen. John McCain died earlier this year, new attention was brought to glioblastoma — the brain cancer that killed him. It’s the same cancer that took the life of U.S. Sen. Ted Kennedy. At UW-Milwaukee’s Institute for Drug Discovery, teams of scientists are now working on new ways of diagnosing and treating that deadly cancer. On this edition of UWM Today , we talk with two researchers involved in the research they hope will someday lead to a cure. Shama Mirza is an assistant professor of chemistry, and Doug Stafford is the director of UWM’s Milwaukee Institute for Drug Discovery.
