| Abstract | Oral cancer is frequently diagnosed at later stages due to expensive, time-consuming methods like biopsies and RT-qPCR, which are impractical for widespread screening, especially in low-resource settings. My project aims to develop a method to detect oral cancer early with a cost-effective, rapid microRNA-based method using specific biomarkers. This innovative approach offers a breakthrough solution for oral cancer monitoring and diagnosis. |
