Squamous cell carcinoma of the skin is a common form of skin cancer that develops in the squamous cells that make up the middle and outer layers of the skin. Untreated, squamous cell carcinoma of the skin can grow large or spread to other parts of the body, causing serious complications. However, it can be treated successfully if detected early. During his Fulbright-Nehru Postdoctoral Research fellowship, Dr. Bose is addressing this issue by developing early detection strategies for squamous cell carcinoma by using a combination of photography, mass spectrometry and machine learning.
