Advanced Center for Detection of Cancer Lab

The Advanced Center for Detection of Cancer (ACDC) Lab is the research laboratory of Dr. Eleftherios P. Diamandis located at Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto, Ontario, Canada and affiliated with the University of Toronto.
The lab was founded in 1988 at Toronto Western Hospital and moved to the Mount Sinai Hospital in 1993. It was relocated intramurally to its current position at the Joseph and Wolf Lebovic Centre of the Mount Sinai Hospital in July 2006. During the past 20 years, the ACDC Lab has attracted more than 100 students, postdoctoral fellows and associates.
The ACDC Lab is active in four areas of research:
# Kallikrein Biology and Pathophysiology
# Proteomics
# Tumor Markers
# Translational Research
From the point-of-view of human disease, the ACDC Lab's focus is on cancer, but other diseases including neurodegeneration, inflammation and skin disorders are also of interest. The research of the group integrates basic biology, cell biology, genomics, proteomics and translational research under one roof.
