🧬 Now, next-generation cancer treatment uses proteomics analysis to identify proteins driving tumor growth, and to help explain why targeted therapies often stop working.

At Inova Schar Cancer Institute, we're the first health system in the U.S. using real-time proteomics in our weekly molecular tumor board, led by Dr. Tim Cannon.

Inova Fairfax Hospital is conducting a research study on emergency care for patients with severe traumatic brain injury (TBI). The goal is to determine which of two ICU monitoring and treatment strategies is more effective in helping patients recover.

Because TBI is a life-threatening condition that requires immediate medical intervention, some patients may be enrolled without prior consent if a family member or legal representative is not quickly available.
