Pancreatic Cancer Cells
This image shows pancreatic cancer cells (nuclei in blue) growing as a sphere encased in membranes (red). By growing cancer cells in the lab, researchers can study factors that promote and prevent the formation of deadly tumors.
This image was originally submitted as part of the 2016 NCI Cancer Close Up project and selected for exhibit.
