Spot the Difference
Can you spot the difference between experiences of menopause from the early signs of uterine cancer?
RESToRE
Our Risk Evaluation and Screening to Tailor prevention and Reduce the incidence of Endometrial cancer (RESToRE) study proposes a prevention model where we will identify postmenopausal women who are at risk of developing uterine cancer but are not experiencing any symptoms, such as abnormal uterine bleeding.
Translating the Vaginal Microbiome
In our “Translating the Vaginal Microbiome” study, we are using data from self-sampled vaginal swabs to establish a robust microbiome signature that distinguishes a malignant from a healthy uterine environment.
DETECTR
Our DETECTR study will be recruiting participants who are already scheduled to undergo diagnostic evaluation (an endometrial biopsy) for abnormal uterine bleeding.
Endometrial Cancer Risk Modelling
We propose to validate previously developed risk models in a Canadian cohort and improve their ability to predict endometrial cancer and its precursors in a general population by adding relevant risk factors.
Lynch Syndrome
Lynch Syndrome is a cancer predisposition syndrome that is inherited due to specific gene mutations. This project will evaluate the barriers and burdens of screening/prevention delivery for Lynch Syndrome carriers in BC.
Clinical Prediction of Pain-Related Outcomes After Endometriosis Surgery
This project leverages machine learning to analyze complex patterns within the longitudinal prospective registry data from the Endometriosis and Pelvic Pain Interdisciplinary Cohort (EPPIC) at BC Women’s Centre for Pelvic Pain and Endometriosis.
