Robson Dna Science Centre

We study how damage and alterations to DNA impact human cancer and aging.

We are researchers based at the University of Calgary who study how cells detect and repair DNA damage, using this research to reduce cancer rates and improve treatments for cancer patients. Our research takes place in the newly created Robson DNA Science Centre, made possible by a $10-million gift from Dave Robson — through the Dave and Val Robson Fund at The Calgary Foundation — to the Southern Alberta Cancer Research Centre (SACRI) at the Cumming School of Medicine.
