First seen Apr 18, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 5 times

Summary

This study looks at how a small area of skin reacts to simulated sunlight in people who have had skin cancer and those who haven't. Researchers will take tiny skin samples to measure changes in proteins and genes. The goal is to understand why some people get skin cancer and others don't, even with similar sun exposure. Participants will have 4 clinic visits over 4 weeks.
