Support Cancer Therapy Research at PBA
For thousands of years, plant extracts and oils have had therapeutic value in treating
various human illnesses. Dr. Chris Hickey, assistant professor of biology, has led
studies on the modern application of the therapeutic value derived from oregano. His
research has successfully demonstrated that two molecules within oregano decrease
cell growth from two aggressive forms of cancer, the skin cancer melanoma and leukemia.
Alongside Palm Beach Atlantic University students, Hickey continues to research the
therapeutic benefits of oregano for other forms of cancer treatments. Watch these
video testimonies to see how the outcome of this research could impact the lives of
people living with cancer. You can support ongoing research by giving to the Cancer
Therapy Research Fund today!
